⚠️Tariffs On Medications Will Make America Sick
We might soon see Trump WH impose tariffs on pharmaceuticals—patients will suffer and die. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said that these tariffs are coming in the “next month or two.”
What will this mean?

For a family with a history pancreatic cancer, very excited about this breakthrough.
90% of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer die from the disease. That's why the medical community is excited about the results of a small trial in which nearly half of the pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine for the disease remained relapse-free three years later.

Remember:
It can be sad. It can be tragic. It can be disgusting and depressing and discouraging.
But it doesn’t have to mean this is who we are now. It’s what our country is doing right now and that’s not the same as who we are.
Who we are isn’t up to him.

FACT: The United States is the only developed country in the world without universal health coverage for all of its citizens - and that's absolutely shameful, especially for the most wealthy nation on the planet.

PCE inflation has fallen to 2.1%—nearly at its 2% target—and incomes are up nearly $4,000.
The economy has grown 12.6% under President Biden—more than any presidential term this century.
16 million jobs created and the lowest unemployment in 50 years.
🚨 Do not let Trump take any credit for this.

One of fascism's main tactics is to physically and mentally exhaust you. To flood the zone with outrageous bullshit, to make you bite on a dozen pump-fakes — so that when the real shot comes, you're too worn out to react.

This is amazing and I didn’t know it until now because I was investing time in Threads when it happened. Love it.
one of the reasons bluesky works differently is because early users waged a successful fight to get the devs to prioritize safety features to protect communities at risk
as a result bluesky now has a suite of controls that i think are unmatched on social media
here’s the list, lmk what i’ve missed
