I don't know how this would benefit people at home, but if you're a nurse and need to count pills there's an app called PillEye. It's 99.99% accurate. As a hospice nurse we have tons of narcotics, it takes 10-15 minutes off of my end of shift.

In just the past month, #MedicareForAll has gained 7 new cosponsors, bringing us to 17 in the Senate and 111 in the House.

More members of Congress are joining us to recognize that the only solution to our health care crisis is Medicare for All. Our movement is growing!

Blanche on Epstein files: "Today is the 30 days. I expect we're going to release several hundred thousand documents today, including photographs...now, the most important thing is we protect victims. We are looking at every single piece of paper making sure that every victim is completely protected"

IUPAT President @jimmy-iupat.bsky.social is right:

Temporary Protected Status recipients are rigorously vetted, pay taxes, and do work in critical industries. They are part of our communities and our unions—they deserve respect and protection.

America’s unions will keep fighting for them.

If the Bondi shooter had an AR-15 with a forced reset trigger, the hero Ahmed al Ahmed who tackled and disarmed him would, instead of recovering in hospital, be dead.

Your cable and streaming prices could go up.

How? Nexstar is trying to buy a competitor, Tegna. And the Trump admin could give it the greenlight.

Nexstar-Tegna would control TV stations reaching 80% of TV households. 80%!

With one company dominating, they could raise prices.

The politicians argue that the deal will "increase costs, drive job losses, and harm local journalism" in a letter to Brendan Carr and Gail Slater.

Mukhammad Aziz Umurzokov, a freshman at Brown, had a condition as a child that required brain surgery. The experience created an unshakable ambition to become a brain surgeon, his sister said.

It’s tough to keep up with all the cons coming out of Trump’s mouth, but the latest one involves him promising checks to Americans who will get paid as a result of his asinine tariff policy. We all know it will never happen.

Last week 20 House GOP crossed party lines to join Dems to overturn Trump’s attempt to deny union rights to federal workers

This one was a defeat for both Mike Johnson and Trump, since it reached the floor in the first place by a discharge petition

Absolutely heartbroken and shocked beyond words by the cowardly terrorist attack on innocent people celebrating Hanukkah in Sydney. My heart aches for the victims, their families, and the Jewish community in Australia. Hate and antisemitism have no place in our world. Praying for all the victims

I am horrified by the attack on a Hanukkah celebration in Sydney, Australia. My thoughts are with the victims and our Jewish communities in NYC mourning. As antisemitism rises across the world, we have a moral obligation to stamp it out everywhere it exists.

Someone just sent me an anonymous email complaining I haven’t warned disabled people about measles, ‘how dare you term yourself a public health leader’

I wrote this nine months ago.
…because we now live in the Trump Regime, and the Trump Regime has installed as HHS Secretary someone who is antagonistic to public health generally and vaccines in particular, even if you have been vaccinated against measles, you may want to have titers checked or consider getting a booster shot…
