Trump Calls Shooting Victims To Rant About Tim Walz

And he doesn't even mention the fact that DHS is blocking hundreds of residents from entering the country. The Trump Regime will cause countless deaths. 8647

“How Trump’s assault on science is blinding America to climate change” | New article from @eenews.bsky.social by Scott Waldman: www.eenews.net/articles/how...

(🧵) I’ve never—in 30 years in journalism—published a report like this: one that could genuinely bring hope. I spent the last 15 hours curating and labeling photos from hundreds of No Kings Day protests. It’s the largest archive of its kind and it has *lots* of Easter eggs (memes, an essay and more).

Why is germ theory in the same air quotes as "miasma theory," I ask as a historian of medicine who is very very tired

Democracy dies in whatever the fuck this is

Incredible turn out for #NoKingsDay. Thank you to everyone speaking up and taking action. Dissent is patriotic!

No Kings Seattle.

Reclaiming the flag in Seattle

Potentially a big deal.

Happy No Kings Day!! I miss this guy. Someone who could speak in complete sentences and wasn’t a raging narcissist.

Louder for the people in the back: "It has been a public health failure that the public does not realize how much organ damage #COVID infection can cause to things that aren’t your lungs (or throat or nose or taste buds)." The image below is based on data collected from 80,071 kids and teens:

The most disturbing thing for me was watching my neighbor get taken out in a body bag.

Could it be is workers have stopped showing up? pbs.twimg.com/media/GtQk8X...

Is there any evidence that ICE agents have EVER read Miranda Rights when arresting anyone? Does that not make every detention unconstitutional? Any lawyers out there who can clarify?

So, the HHS Secretary who is obsessed with neurodevelopmental issues is blocking use of vaccine in the precise context in which it protects against a disease that causes neurodevelopment delays. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

It’s amazing. The article recounts Noem’s take on things—that Padilla didn’t ID himself—without noting that there is clear VIDEO SHOWING HIM DOING SO. It feels like a literal “don’t believe what your eyes saw” moment. A total failure in coverage.

Apparently, when you know the truth, ignorance of the facts stops being an encumbrance.

A comparison between the extensive expertise of the dismissed vaccine advisory panel and the biases and lack of expertise on the new one starkly demonstrates the dangerous tendency of the Trump regime to lead with a desired truth and assemble the science to prove it open.substack.com/pub/drbobmor...

Marty Makary does so well with natural stupidity.

Hero 🧪#NIH

The last time the marines were called to quell protests in the US was the Rodney King riots in 1992. The mayor and governor asked for help 3,800 buildings burned 1,000 people injured. 31 killed. So far in LA 5 Waymos have burned. No one requested help. This is an invasion, not assistance. 8647

#episky The novel approach to estimating the impact of public health interventions described in my newly published study in the Journal of Public Health Policy, suggests that the deeply flawed laissez faire approach to COVID would have nearly doubled COVID deaths. 🧪 open.substack.com/pub/drbobmor...

Ever there was ever a post to share, this is it. No Kings No Party 8647

Due in no small part to the hard work of @solnatamd.medsky.social and her partners in crime. Kudos.
