Med school/Residency/fellowship teaches to put your head down and grind. To fall into the hierarchy. That does not make an informed or engaged citizen. And yet there are docs getting in good trouble today. You can’t complain PE is taking over if you aren’t willing to show up and fight for yr pts.

Dictators of all stripes hate solidarity. They’d prefer that we cower alone. They want us to feel powerless. This is why I encourage you to participate in the peaceful demonstrations planned for today across America. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/april-5-hands-off-our-healthcare

For the love of God, what is the GOP congress doing? Gesturing or ring kissing wont save them bc they are the old guard- the people that will be removed by this administration whenever it’s Night of Long Knives equivalent takes place. This has always been a one man show.

"All we say to America is, 'Be true to what you said on paper.'" These words — spoken by MLK Jr. shortly before he was killed on this day in 1968 — ring just as true now. Let's honor his legacy by continuing the fight for social and economic justice.

There’s an uncomfortable relationship to confront between the current administration and California. Overwhelmingly these tech-loving, anti-democracy, made their millions in CA and then moved out of state for lower taxes, take from the poor and give to the rich types are from Silicon Valley.

Remember how Mark Zuckerberg started cozying up to Trump as Meta donated $1 million to his inauguration? Well now Zuckerberg is trying to cash in — reportedly lobbying Trump to settle the FTC’s antitrust lawsuit against Meta. This is why you always follow the money.

In Myanmar’s hour of need, the U.S. is nowhere to be found. Meanwhile, China and Russia are providing life-saving aid, gaining goodwill and filling the leadership vacuum left by Trump and Elon Musk’s foolish retreat. An international disgrace. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/02/u...

Media: He did this shocking thing! Stop being surprised a narcissist is narcissisting. Hold the GOP accountable! Hold congress responsible! The GOP could apply the breaks any time and aren’t. Where is that story?!? Why isn’t anyone flushing out why they are selling out democracy?
