Women physicians are the backbone of healthcare provision in the US.
Studies show we get better health outcomes. Yet we remain underpaid, under-promoted, and often punished for trying to find balance.
Shoutout to my fellow women docs!

How odd that when Trump announced his “deal” with Mexico he failed to mention that the US committed to halting the flow of assault weapons from the US to Mexico. Why did he leave that out?

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Republicans couldn’t even pass a bill to keep the government open that they negotiated with themselves—after blowing up a bipartisan deal with Democrats because Elon Musk and Trump told them to. And then 38 Republicans voted against their own bill. 🤡
