The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

People missing an important point about folks getting fired for whatever they said about Charlie Kirk: Americans are being conditioned to be snitches on their fellow citizens who don’t toe a party line on what is “allowed” to be expressed. And employers are going along. It’s the new secret police

RFK Jr. rolled out that old chestnut again about how healthy Americans were in the 60’s, so here’s a fact check.

In 1965:

-42% of American adults smoked; it’s 11% now.

-The infant morality rate was 24.7/1000; it’s 5.6/1000 now.

-Overall life expectancy was 70 years; it's about 77 years now.

You only kill journalists when you want to hide what you're doing.

Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all:

“If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.”

Israel just killed him.

My mom and stepdad are from the same diaspora group as Zohran Mamdani’s dad (same like “my stepdad was kicked out of the same town and knows some of his classmates”) and apparently the New York Times doesn’t understand how diaspora works, so I am going to tell you a little about my mom’s people!

I urge you all to read this. Click the PDF tab.

It’s so much about the urgency of now, and it’s the kind of moral voice that we need desperately today.

But it’s also a crucial reminder that you, too, have unique skills and gifts to meet this moment.

“On Not Betraying Our Trainees, Especially Now”

I won an Extraordinary Achievement Award from the Critical Care Assembly last month

The @atscommunity.bsky.social premier journal @atsblueeditor.bsky.social TODAY published the remarks I made on that occasion

Congress died the moment they allowed 147 insurrectionists to remain in office instead of expelling them and charging them with sedition. That’s just my opinion.

Right before I saw the message from Trump I got a very different one from a friend in Tehran, so deeply surrounded by bombing that he was asking me to help communicate his last wishes. This is what my own taxes fund, so much pain upon my loved ones. We are complicit in so, so, so much violence.

It's hard to overstate how destructive the reflexive "this is a distraction!" stuff that politicians and commentators and people are always peddling.

Everything is happening all at once. That's how authoritarianism works. If you can't navigate and synthesize this, you're not meeting the moment.
