„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

Read about WHY Ketanji Brown Jackson stayed the SNAP order. Her move is probably the best solution for getting SNAP benefits approved quickly. open.substack.com/pub/stevevla...
190. SNAP WTF?
A very quick explainer on what (and why) Justice Jackson issued an "administrative stay" in the SNAP case late on Friday night, and on what's likely to happen next

There’s just not enough attention being paid to how unqualified, psychologically unfit, and dangerous so many of these new ICE hires potentially are.
If we had a Congress, there’d be investigations & oversight into this.

The amount of shit I got for this segment at the time was astronomical, and it was all from people who now stalk CVS employees to get them fired for insufficient online sadness.
Cheering on political violence is both evil and not new, an outgrowth of an internet intentionally dismantled years ago.

I do think so, but we have to start now. It starts with state and local elections. Not enough people vote in those. We have to fix that.
Next up is obviously the midterms, but that won’t be enough on its own - we’re going to have to win several elections in a row to unfuck this situation.

I care for children in the hospital on inpatient & consult services.
Most weeks there are at least a few kids admitted with vaccine preventable diseases.
Often in children who can’t get vaccinated themselves.
15 years in pediatrics and I’ve never seen a single one admitted with vaccine injury.

Next year, Americans will see the biggest jump in health insurance costs in 15 years.
Meanwhile, the six largest health insurers raked in more than $31 billion in net income last year.
Still not sure if we need Medicare for All?

School vouchers are a scam to send taxpayer money to private religious schools. Vouchers are also a violation of church and state.

Elon Musk donated $15 million to Republican and pro-Trump super PACs...in just a single day.
That’s roughly 0.00375% of his total net worth.
Oligarchs can spend pennies to rig the system in their favor at the expense of everyone else.
We must get Big Money out of politics.
