Immigrants make up a significant proportion of all the country's doctors. New policies are making it harder and less appealing for foreign-born physicians to come to the U.S.
'Nobody wants to come': What if the U.S. can no longer attract immigrant physicians?

one of RFK Jr.'s main beefs seem to be that people involved with medicine sometimes materially benefit from their findings, but when his friends sell things like mercury eye drops or chakra-blasting lead pills, they are simply asked to get off the Walmart PA system

Trump is busy throwing charges at anyone he can, but honestly? Foxtrot Delta Tango.

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.

The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.

It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.

Textbook corporate greed.

A federal judge didn’t “steal” the Commander-in-Chief’s powers—she ruled that DoD exceeded the limits Congress set. That is the rule of law working as designed. What threatens the Republic isn’t judicial review, but officials who insist they’re above it.

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.

The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.

Where is the MAHA outcry?

Trump wrongly indicted me. I’ll rightly impeach him.

Impeachment isn’t just an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent — but is it working?

Trump has done *nothing* to make the case for why he is murdering people in the seas and contemplating an invasion of Venezuela. Bush at least lied to US for months before invading Iraq.
Trump had found an issue more unpopular than his handling of inflation - attacking Venezuela:

So, how is bailing out Argentina, funding Israel's genocide, and now attempting a war with Venezuela "America First" and "non-interventionism" that was allegedly promoted by MAGA, Trump and all their right-wing reeks?

The last time America attempted regime change to lower the price of oil it embroiled us in a war for two decades

And that’s just ONE of the many, many reasons not to attack Venezuela

The criminality of extrajudicially killing thousands of innocent civilians would be another

Just so we're clear. Bombing or starting a war with Venezuela without Congressional approval would be an illegal act. Military officers are within their rights to refuse such an order.

Impeach, convict, remove. And if our current leaders won’t do it, they need to step aside for people who will: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jo54...

Big Oil is using native advertising to "disguise their ads in news outlets" and promote "controversial technologies like carbon capture as climate solutions, portray fossil fuel companies as climate-friendly, or misrepresent their role in the energy transition" finds author @commscholar.bsky.social.
These ads are poisoning trust in media
‘Native advertising' allows fossil fuel companies to disguise their ads in news outlets. A new book argues the practice undermines journalistic credibility.

Mike Johnson is big mad that we forced through a petition and forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

So let’s do it again. This time to restore the ACA credits he stole from us:

Marimar Martinez is a US citizen who was shot by ICE five times in Chicago.

She was then arrested, labelled a “domestic terrorist” and slandered on social media.

All charges against her have been dropped.

In this interview she shows on of the seven holes the ICE agent put in her body.

Had people say to me it's a waste to own physical media multiple times now, they'll all be in a landfill eventually.

I sincerely hope everyone saying pirates eveything cause I can't imagine the hellscape of only relying on currently streaming shows or only playing old games with current re-releases
