Buttigieg on Indiana: "The big part of how Trumpism works is to make you feel totally disempowered. To make him feel inevitable. And yet the clear takeaway from this is he is not unstoppable and you are not without power."

If you've ever been to a naturalization ceremony, you know they're filled with people whose palpable love of this country is twenty times stronger than the pinched "patriotism" of any native-born MAGA chud.
Just unspeakable assholery.

The people who believe the U.S. is some magical country where anything is possible are the same ones who are currently trying to get rid of the one instance of America actually being magical: birthright citizenship

The Supreme Court paved the way for a felon to return to the presidency — where, behind the shield of office, that felon has ordered a string of murders.
The boat was split in half. 9 men were dead. 2 more clung to a floating piece of wreckage and tried desperately to flip it over for 41 minutes straight. There was no possible way they were going anywhere.
Then they were killed in cold blood by the U.S. military.

There is only one instance when racists understand that an entire group of people can't be blamed for the violent actions of 1 person...and that is when the perpetrator is a white man.
In all other instances, logic need not apply.

America has a major nursing workforce shortage. We need hundreds of thousands more.
Is it any surprise the Trump team has decided to make it *harder* for aspiring nurses to afford nursing school?
Yet another healthcare “policy” that will harm our future.

A professor at Harvard released a study that indicates that the death toll on Gaza is close to 400,000 people.
Incredible. Just insane.
And the USA enabled and sponsored every single death.
One of the most disgusting things to happen in my lifetime.

i know we've all laughed about the worm and the affair but this is a profoundly dangerous person who should be expelled from the government.
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.
RFK Jr. Says He Instructed CDC to Change Vaccines and Autism Language on Website
In an interview, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited gaps in vaccine safety research. His critics say he is ignoring a larger point: Vaccines save lives.

Changing the basic scientific functioning of the CDC undermines the safety of our children. The post on the CDC website is a dangerous and unprecedented departure from the CDC’s longstanding commitment to communicating evidence-based public health information.

I believe one reason for their disdain for public health is that it is based on and recognizes our interconnectedness as human beings, as inhabitants of this earth, in direct contrast to the dominant culture's emphasis on individualism.
It really seems like this administration is trying to eliminate the field of public health. MPHs and DrPHs will no longer be considered "professional degrees" by the DOE and, therefore, will face limits to accessing federal student loans.
