Gutting public health doesn’t make healthy (or great) again. It just gives us measles outbreaks, no innovation in cancer treatments, and soft, yellow ass teeth. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Had a dream (maybe a nightmare) that I was aging like Tulsi Gabbard (we are the same age). Let me make sure that I don’t have as much hate in my heart as she does….to guard against Tulsification….

The Trump administration’s war on science is slashing funding, shutting down labs, and driving top researchers overseas. The cost? Medical breakthroughs, technological innovation, and America’s future. My latest adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/the-scienc...

Folks’ personal experience with birth control pills should not lead to Make America Healthy Again/RFK Jr…and then to a hostile government takeover. But alas, it is happening. Don’t let these folks on social media lead peeps down an alt-right rabbit hole. #medsky

Happy Doctors Day from my employer who cut our benefits and are not trying to really address staffing shortages and safety. We got an umbrella and a carb on carb breakfast 🫠

Myths spread by contrarian doctors to minimize COVID are now being recycled to minimize measles. The anti-vaccine circle is complete. My latest for SBM. sciencebasedmedicine.org/newagain/

One of the biggest populations that Medicaid serves is residents of nursing homes. So are you going to put these residents to work in sweat shops in the nursing homes? www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/h...

hey, can one of the reasonable centrist writers condescendingly explain to me again that it is overblown to call these people segregationists?

Took a break from Phil Collins for some recession pop….but I need to circle back. Phil calms down my nervous system and given the shitshow this country is….dusting off the playlist.

Yup, the US is so ghetto right now. Smdh. This is ridiculous.

I find myself saying, “the US is so f**king ghetto” at least 10 times a day now. It used to be about 5….but now, more. Ugh.

Just thought I’d shout out Rep. Gillen from Long Island, NY who voted to censure Rep. Green who wore pink “in protest” of Trump. I guess on fascism Tuesdays, we wear pink.

Interracial marriage did not cross 50% approval in the US until 1996, when I was 30 years old. Good political messaging drives opinion, it doesn't follow it.

The second measles death was just confirmed in the U.S. — an unvaccinated adult in New Mexico. This follows the death of a six-year-old child, who also was unvaccinated, in Texas last week. This is devastating.

The US Attorney in Washington DC is investigating Georgetown Law School, demanding that "if DEI is found in your courses or teaching in anyway [sic]," the law school should "move swiftly to remove it" Federal prosecutors don’t control the classroom. This is a dark abdication of the First Amendment.

It’s very funny to post about how you dislike Gavin Newsom and have people be like “oh so you’d rather the governor of California was TUCKER CARLSON?” like that’s the absolute limit of the quality of Democratic leader you can get in the bluest state in America

Hey Tucker Carlson and any other bigot who feels the same way, ummm, the DEI clearly hasn’t been working if less than 1% of all surgeons are Black women. Just sayin.

It’s 2025. We should not be dealing with this in an age of modern medicine.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

Not me looking at Tucker Carlson talking about Black female surgeons, as a Black female surgeon like 😒 Not the man who is the epitome of white privilege and all of the help it gave him, given his mediocrity, having the audacity to talk crap about Black female surgeons.

One time in the Australian parliament 18 MPs got ejected in 70 minutes. It was just like a random Thursday and they were feeling rowdy. Meanwhile only one Democrat is willing to disrupt proceedings and get kicked out during Trump's speech. Wild.

Today the Trump administration listed 443 federal properties as available for sale, including landmark buildings like the Justice Department headquarters. This would represent a massive cut to the federal real estate portfolio and mean big changes for D.C. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
