Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

Every single day I see patients who can’t afford out of pocket costs. Every week I see patients struggle with co-pays. This hurts me as a human, why do we strive to make people’s lives worse?

News Analysis: There is arguably no statesman who cuts such a striking political resemblance to Donald Trump than Jair Bolsonaro, Brazil’s former president. But Brazilian institutions have responded to Bolsonaro far differently than their U.S. counterparts responded to Trump.
As Trump Heads to White House, Bolsonaro May Be Headed to Jail. Why?
Three reasons help explain why the two politicians have faced such contrasting fates.

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.

Be. Like. Finland.

What’s sad is I just saw a girl with relapsed Wilms and when we walked in, Fox News was blaring with her grandpa sitting there in a Trumps Revenge hat. His shirt was a customized picture of his granddaughter that read: “my hero.” The duality of man. Or just a failure of American education.
If you’ve ever worked with kids with cancer (I have), you’ll know how indescribably heartbreaking it is.

And you’d want to do everything you could to prevent and treat it.

Now Elon and Trump have SLASHED money for pediatric cancer research.

Profoundly evil.
