As he faces Senate confirmation, remember that Dr. Oz:

-Pushed Medicare privatization plans on his show
-Owns ~$600k in stock in private insurers
-Has ties to pyramid scheme companies that promote fake medical cures

His main qualification to oversee CMS is loyalty to Trump.

Got a great example of DOGE INefficiency today. We received an envelope of 1041-ES forms for someone who passed away almost 20 years ago. Great job messing with those databases and all our personal info, Einsteins.

Facts
This Repub CR, that they claim will keep the government open, is a perfect example of why you must read bills.

Inside the text, you’ll find cuts everywhere, and so much money taken from vets you wouldn’t believe it. These guys are frauds.

Nice try! Hard NO! Throw it in the 🗑️

Childhood circumstances made me very aware of this part of our history and I remember being shocked when I got to college and many people knew nothing about it. The US has done a really good job of suppressing this and it is really troubling to think of how quickly history can be erased.
Today is the #DayOfRemembrance commemorating Executive Order 9066 and the government's mass incarceration of Japanese Americans during WWII. Eight years ago, I wrote about visiting Manzanar, what life was like in the camp, and how the National Park Service plays a role in teaching civil rights.

Leonard Peltier, the 80-year-old Indigenous activist imprisoned for nearly 50 years, has been released to serve the remainder of his sentence in home confinement. Peltier has long maintained his innocence, and his case has been a focal point for human rights advocates.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

I'm hearing that right now, Trump is firing researchers at VA.

Trump & Elon need to reverse course on this IMMEDIATELY—this across-the-board firing threatens to decimate so much of the lifesaving research our veterans depend on: suicide prevention, burn pit exposure, and more.

Musk has made over $25,000,000,000 from tax breaks, subsidies and government contracts. That’s $25 Billion we as taxpayers have both given him directly and had to compensate for. You care about the deficit? Great! Give us our fucking money back.

Bears can be very loving mothers.
This one is gently playing with her cub. She could inflict some serious damage but just like us, she thinks, she feels, she cares and she is aware.
It's time for people to not just realize this, but begin to act on it.
We have work to do.

We cannot mince words about what it would mean to confirm RFK Jr. to our highest health official: elevating him and his anti-science views could have deadly consequences—even before he lifts a finger.

He is wholly unfit & unqualified to lead HHS.

The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they resisted turning over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Musk’s staffers. America, please stand with us—we are fighting to defend this country!
