I heard that the plaque from Alzheimer’s is an inflamatory response to a virus and that the shingles vaccine greatly reduces the chances of getting the disease.
Don’t know if that’s true, but the vaccine is effective against shingles so I’m gonna get it anyway.

Commentary: Who profits most from Medicaid? Employers like Walmart and Amazon, many of whose workers rely on the program
Big employers such as Walmart, Amazon and McDonald's stick taxpayers with the bill for healthcare and food for their employees. The GOP budget will make life harder for those workers.

Yesterday ADP showed a loss of 33k jobs. BLS today showed a gain of 147k. What gives?
1) Different survey methodologies
2) BLS includes state and local
gov employment, which showed gains
3) these are prelim numbers
Still this is a large discrepancy. I’ll be looking into it more today

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

Dear Media - just a reminder:
The "Fourth Estate" refers to the role of the press, specifically newspapers and other news media, as a powerful force in society, often described as a watchdog over government and other institutions.

Okay I know you all are watching some sort of train crash, BUT
our 4-yo just marched into the room and said
“You know what? I LOVE BOOKS.
I love books more than probably anyone.”

NAFTA: My Front-Row Seat to the Race to the Bottom…
Let me tell you what NAFTA looked like from the inside—because I lived it. Americans didn’t just lose jobs to Mexico, jobs were lost to China too.
When it was ratified in 1994, I was the head designer at a company called Z Cavaricci.

I don't get how anyone can possibly be okay with ending the WHI. This study has accrued decades of data from 42000 women and it is still going. It helps to address critical research gaps that have been allowed to go unfilled because of durable misogyny and provides invaluable insight into aging.

At a GOP town hall last night, heckling from constituents was apparently too much to handle—so they used police force and even stun guns on their own constituents. What are they so afraid of? Someone disagreeing with their views?

I have to be honest: Every day it becomes a little bit harder not to have a total breakdown about the rendition of immigrants to a prison/concentration camp in El Salvador.

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.
