Our first Lights Out Alert is tonight (4/14): An estimated 4.1 million birds will be migrating over Oregon skies! ✨ Every light turned off reduces the risk of window collisions and keeps their journey on track. Help them travel safely by turning off all unnecessary lights from 11 p.m. to dawn.

We don’t care who you are. Bird shooting must end. Follow @endbirdshooting.bsky.social if you’re with us! This is just the beginning.

Here’s a question for Keir Starmer: We’ve lost 4% of our economy since leaving the EU, and it’s still tanking. How is that “in the public interest”?

The problem is sociopathic corporate greed. 🧐

LET'S GO!!!!

A quote from the year I was born. (40 years ago) I'm too old to be chasing a four year old when I'll be 41 in a matter of weeks.😆

Let’s be clear. He sold $2.4 billion of his stock the day before he announced tariffs. He’s now crashing the stock market deliberately. He will then buy stock when it’s fallen through the floor. All this is is him stiffing everyone to get richer. That’s it.

It’s a recalibration of economic control. Oligarchs don’t live paycheck to paycheck. They have the capital to buy market dips and recoup faster, acquiring more assets at fire sale prices along the way. When the dust finally settles, they will own more. The rest of us will own less. A lot less.

Keir Starmer, "My priority — my only priority — is the people of Britain, and what makes them better off" So why is Labour keeping the UK outside of EU Single Market?

👏

This Labour government is attacking Reform for talking about changing the NHS to a different healthcare system. Just to be clear, Labour is also changing the NHS model- turning the NHS into an enormous cash cow for private companies, mining our public asset to make shareholders richer.

Sagan’s warning for society! How right was he?

"The Elias law firm, Hillary Clinton’s lawyers in 2016, stated there would be no negotiation with Trump." www.bostonglobe.com/2025/04/04/o...

We've investigated the financial links between MPs and the private healthcare sector, because we don't think any of these links should exist. Now we're building a map, so you can find out which MPs are taking these donations, + how much! Please follow EveryDoctor+share this! We'll keep you updated!

We keep writing about this destruction without getting to the core of it. “White Americans who are racially resentful towards Blacks, hold negative views of immigrants, and believe that whites are being discriminated against are especially likely to hold anti-democratic beliefs.”

Oh just Texas Congressman Keith Self directly quoting Joseph Goebbels during a congressional hearing….what planet are we on smh

BREAKING: The Senate voted 51–48 to pass a resolution blocking Trump’s Canadian tariffs from taking effect. Four Republicans — Sens. Susan Collins, Mitch McConnell, Rand Paul, and Lisa Murkowski — joined all 47 Democrats in supporting the measure.

NEW: Vladimir Putin has ordered another 160,000 Russian citizens be called up to serve in the military, Russian news agency Interfax reported Monday. “According to our intelligence, Russia is preparing for new offensives in Sumy, Kharkiv, and Zaporizhzhia regions,” President Zelensky said last week

2020 "Can you guarantee that under your leadership the 2019 commitment to nationalise water, energy, rail, the Royal Mail, they'll all be in Labours next election manifesto?" "I've made that commitment" 2021 "I didnt make a commitment to nationalisation"

Laws matter.

Doctors call it the Physiology of Poverty: The stress of trying to survive every day breaks the mind and the body. That's why working class people in America live SEVEN years shorter than the very wealthy.

#US #measles cases explode this week 5 states with outbreaks; Texas, New Mexico, Kansas, Ohio, and Oklahoma “the spread could stretch on for a year. The World Health Organization said this week cases in Mexico are linked to the Texas outbreak.” apnews.com/article/meas...

Trump & his allies push judicial impeachment as revenge - ignoring Chief Justice Roberts’ warning. Mike Johnson? Silent. Congress? Letting it happen. Too many questions left unanswered. Watch now & subscribe. youtu.be/VfN6F1OgrDc

Did you know this about Frank Sinatra. This explains how he was good friends with Sam Davis Jr.

JD Vance, aka Vladimir Pudding, says (paraphrasing here) "We don't care if the country belongs to someone else - even our allies - we want it, so we'll take it." Same as Russia in Ukraine, China with Hong Kong and Taiwan. For anyone still confused - this is authoritarianism.

All those souls .. 😔
