Three things made the US a rich and powerful nation: the rule of law, its science & innovation system, and openness to foreign talent. Remarkable how Trump has taken a sledgehammer to all three. No enemy of this country could do more.

Sometimes when there's police misconduct they say "there's just a few bad apples" but the situation is the exact opposite. The few honest cops who try to follow the law are aggressively and actively drummed out of the force.

When I had my hysterectomy, I was told recovery would be quick because I was young, fit & otherwise healthy. They were wrong. The surgeon made an error and despite signs of post op bleeding, discharged me & went on vacation. When I returned to the ER, I was ignored & gaslit 🧵
