When you have a need for skilled care what are some of the things you look for?

One of the most obvious things we look for is the quality of the skilled care Nurses, and staff.

Rfkjr has decided to eliminate the nurse part of skilled care nursing facilities.

The world has come a long way since the days of “All the President’s Men” and “Spotlight,” movies that favorably portrayed journalists knocking on doors and trying to reach sources to tell important stories. Now Trump officials vilify such efforts. My column on the moment we’re in.
Our Reporters Reached Out for Comment. They Were Accused of Stalking and Intimidation.
Our journalists reach out to people they’re writing about to ensure fairness. But in this environment, they’ve found their efforts to do so are more likely to be vilified than appreciated.

Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta.

Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

I whole heartedly agree!

Science is not simple.
It is so easy to oversimplify something to a point to where it fits a narrative.

Recall that RFK Jr’s MAHA report misrepresented the conclusions of scientific papers to fit the narrative.

We have to fight back.

One of the most incredible shots I've ever gotten, in Yellowstone. This coyote walked over a ridge in the blowing snow and posed for me, with a small grin on its face, the snowfalkes like stars in the background.

The desolation and beauty of life and nature is grounding, and so good for the soul.

Happy Belated Birthday to Anthony Fauci!

Without truth, Democracy falls apart.

For Christmas I want
1. #NIH & CDC to use evidence based science
2. RFK Jr Impeached
3. MAHA dismantled
4.To not politicize science

🧪 We can't give up & get discouraged. Do not accept the normalization of untruths.

The offshore project here off the coast of Virginia Beach was one of those subject to Trump’s sabotage. It is already halfway completed, with hundreds of millions of dollars in infrastructure already built, and was set to power a couple hundred thousand homes. Madness.

Autism is a spectrum, not "one size fits all". New research suggests that 4 types of autism exist. Children may have genetic mutations that manifest at different times in their life.

There are many autisms.

RFK Jr. did not find the cause. And it's not vaccines or Tylenol.

Even truth without justice helps authoritarianism rise. That is what we are seeing with the Epstein file dumps. The rich and powerful perpetrators faced no consequences, and accountability is treated as optional.

Remember when Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump’s lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, wrote an op-ed trying to justify having sex with kids?

Seems relevant now.

Be sure to thank Trump and RFKJ who are both 100% vaccinated, for your unpresidented measles outbreak.
