"If we’ve learned nothing else from this administration’s second term so far, and I don’t think we have, is that giving the bully your lunch money doesn’t make him go away, it just makes him come back hungrier each time. They are never going to stop.”

Why aren't more physicians speaking out about vaccines saving lives? Where are the AMA and the pediatric groups? Speak up and advocate for what you know and recommend for your patients! Our hospitals will be over run with very sick and dying kids and adults this winter if you don't!

We can’t lose sight of the damage SCOTUS is doing to our democracy. With Republicans in control of Congress and the White House, we must continue to build support for expansion, term limits and an enforceable code of ethics, @rachelrossi.bsky.social writes.

How Trumpism is like Stalinism. A thread. 🧵🧵🧵
Many people make valid comparisons of Trumpism to Nazism. But I think MAGA authoritarianism bears more similarities to Joseph Stalin's Soviet Union – ruthless, paranoid, dishonest and determined to climb into every aspect of the lives of his people.

The Trump meeting with Putin was a massive failure for two of the most untrustworthy imperialistic presidents on the planet.
Americans, at heart, are humanitarians.
Our leadership should reflect us.

The #1 way to explain America working properly is by saying “comedians can make fun of he President on TV.” A good way to explain fascism is “the President forces companies to fire those comedians as a condition of allowing them to conduct business.”

This is the ER waiting room at a major hospital in East Tennessee. My 93 year old minor was taken there by ambulance with a broken femur around 5 pm. She is in “holding” as if 12:10 am. She is in excruciating pain, not been seen by a doctor, no family allowed to see her. Third world healthcare.

I’ve seen a lot of hand wringing about the dangers of going to No Kings protests and gently, I want to tell people to chill a little. These are permitted marches and the point is to be out there and seen en masse. Please don’t scare off people who are maybe going to their very first protest
