well i am sure this administration will take strong action to make sure food safety is a top priority going forwa… hold on i am getting an update

I think researchers and policymakers in prominent positions who pushed mass infection with SARS-CoV-2, said the pandemic was over, and claimed Covid was a flu/cold, helped to embolden the anti-science and anti-vax movements they decry. A bit late to speak up now.

They are snatching people off the street and sending them away to brutal prisons in foreign lands with zero due process - and they won't even bring them back when they realize a mistake was made. That's frightening stuff for any American who actually loves their country. #StopTrumpsTerror

All activity on X helps Musk, I wrote this to explain how. Please repost and share everywhere with people that are still using X, we need to educate them about how harmful it is. #HandsOff #TakeDownX

"Who could have predicted this?" say the people who spent the past year dismissing or mocking those who predicted this.

At last! @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social has joined BlueSky!!!!! Welcome, Dr. Hotez!!!!! #ProudBlue #DemVoice1

Just in case you missed this from Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker: "Bullies respond to one thing, and one thing only: a punch in the face."

This gives me hope. Since Election Day—and especially after Schumer announced he was voting yes on the Republican CR bill—there’s been a surge of people stepping up to run for office. 🔥 Check out these numbers.

This is a great article by @ericreinhart.bsky.social that summarizes what I have been posting for years. I have brought up examples such as the German Medical Association and German doctors, the Tuskegee trial, and others. All of these are mentioned here—and more.

JFC. 🧐

I'm still gobsmacked that the media is calling "signalgate" the first scandal of Trump 2.0. You mean bringing in an un-elected billionaire and a bunch of teenagers to ravage the govt. isn't one? Abducting students off the streets isn't one? Threatening to seize Greenland and so much more? WTF???

Why do we, the most powerful nation on Earth, act like the most weak and shortsighted?

Terminated parks employee in Alaska warns of the danger and cruelty of job cuts — a commentary by Gregory D. Larsen for Atmos, republished by @alaskabeacon.com: alaskabeacon.com/2025/03/05/t...

In light of the firing of FBI and other security personnel, I am suspicious of the leaders of our Intel agencies. Something smells.

Buliles never expect their targets to fight back. Keep fighting back.

We all belong.

Ugh. I’m doomscrolling and life is insanely hard right now… so this is what I have to share with the world until further notice. The sweetest, clingiest marshmallow mommas boy who ever lived. The love-iest love of my life 💙💙💙 #dogsofbluesky #germanshepherd #gsd #dogsky

Never underestimate the power of wearing a mask. It’s a simple and safe act of compassion, resistance & self care Sick of being sick? Wear a mask. Want to keep a vulnerable loved one safe? Wear a mask. Want to show solidarity with disabled people? Wear a mask. Want to fight fascism? Wear a mask.

Violence against women demands urgent attention. One in three women faces physical or sexual violence, and nearly 25% of workplace violence happens in hospitals or clinics — and women are most affected. #BeijingPlus30 #IWD2025

Measles is back. Thanks antivaxxers and science illiterates.

BREAKING: Entire Human Race Flagged By DEI Purge Because of “Homo” in “Homo Sapiens”

This stain on history is about to throw us into a recession.

This violates every principle of western democratic alliances, decency, etc over the last 50+ years. We have destroyed our democracy and our carefully crafted alliances in the span of a week. Dump is a treasonous Russian asset.

Federal marshals forced entry into the US African Development Foundation and escorted Musk staffers inside, after agency employees resisted their entry. Once inside, they changed the federal agency’s locks. Musk staffers were seen plugging in an external hard drive and going through everything.

Someone is going to have to explain to me, like I’m 5 yo, why EVERY SINGLE DEMOCRAT AND INDEPENDENT ISNT FIGHTING AS LOUDLY AS THIS BADASS MAN. FIGHT. Pink shirts and paddles be damned. Get effing aggressive for chrissakes.

An Executive Order targeting a particular law firm? Because they represented Hillary Clinton at one time? Yep, we live in the dumbest timeline possible. #DemVoice1

I’m disappointed with Dem leadership’s weak anti-Trump campaign. Recycling tired slogans like “Save Democracy” & “Resist” won’t cut it. Our nation deserves fresh messaging

The former head of Kazakhstan’s intelligence service recently claimed that Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987, when the 40-year-old real-estate mogul first visited Moscow. This now makes a total of three KGB agents—located in different places and speaking at different times—who agree on that.

Don't think no one cares. People are doing things. Do what you can, too.

NEW: The actions of Trump and Vance in recent weeks highlight something under-appreciated. The American right is now ideologically closer to countries like Russia, Turkey and in some senses China, than to the rest of the west (even the conservative west). My column: www.ft.com/content/3046...

This kind of extreme homophobia usually springs from one very particular word for the bigot... And Pete Hegseth is a really extreme bigot!

The same people who said we can’t erase history by removing Confederate statues is now saying they can erase history.

"NO KINGS LIVE HERE"

I’m worried clarithromycin will become the next ivermectin. I have patients who need it for serious infections—misusing it for measles could lead to shortages for those who truly need it. Another example of how misinformation can kill.

Omg. In a shocking moment, Nancy Bolan, a fired USAID worker and tonight’s guest of Rep. Ritchie Torres — reveals that Donald Trump has pulled the U.S. from the global polio eradication initiative — which threatens its spread to the U.S. Every single American should see this.

“Today the United States launched a trade war against Canada. Their closest partner and ally. Their closest friend. At the same time, they’re talking about working positively with Russia and appeasing Vladimir Putin, a lying, murderous dictator. Make that makes sense.“ — Prime Minister Trudeau

There tends to be an assumption that Medicaid is just for the poor. In reality it covers 72 million Americans, paying for about half of all nursing care and 40 percent of births. (Corrected post: The earlier one said Medicare, not Medicaid). www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

apnews.com/article/trum... Oh SURE Red State Farmers Just WAIT 20% of your sales go overseas AND Trump froze your selling crops to USAID AND You have no one to help you pick crops Because he deported them all You'll raise your prices and people will not afford to buy You voted oh boy
