THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a dual-antibody treatment that remains effective against ALL SARS-CoV-2 variants by targeting a less-mutable part of the virus. This breakthrough could lead to longer-lasting therapies that OUTPACE viral evolution. 🧪🧵⬇️

Donald Trump targeted AP and legacy media did nothing. Donald Trump has now targeted two large law firms and Big Law is silent. You all read Martin Niemöller's poem “First They Came.” So, I ask you -- What are you doing?

If not russian asset then why russian asset shaped

Why is everything so, so dumb

Absolutely fantastic news as sickle cell gene therapy is to be rolled out for sickle cell academia with a one off treatment curing 97% of patients 🧪

I love that a white guy was flying the plane, a white guy was flying the helicopter, and a white guy gutted the FAA last week but somehow the blame is too much diversity.

NEW: My staff has confirmed reports that Medicaid portals are down in all 50 states following last night's federal funding freeze. This is a blatant attempt to rip away health care from millions of Americans overnight and will get people killed.

I read an article today about the number of people currently relying on food assistance. I am sure those numbers will increase. @feedingamerica.org is one of my favorite charities and today I signed up to volunteer locally.

The U.S. Air Force will resume teaching about the nation's first Black pilots and the women pilots of World War II. This followed widespread public outcry over their earlier decision to stop teaching about the Tuskegee Airmen and the WASPs.

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.

This is the same guy who wants to annex Canada?

BREAKING: President Biden affirms the Equal Rights Amendment is part of the U.S. Constitution, declaring it the “law of the land.”

After a presidents term is over they still get paid $90K a year for the rest of their life. Jimmy used a lot of that money to help poor people.

News Analysis: Evidence against drinking alcohol is growing. Why haven’t U.S. guidelines changed?

Get a library card even if you're not planning to use it. It impacts their funding.

Sometimes the combination of arrogance and ignorance is breathtaking. Yes, US health care has high admin costs; that's because it relies so much on private insurers. Govt-run health insurance has much lower overhead

Former FBI informant Alexander Smirnov pleaded guilty today to lying about a phony bribery scheme involving Joe Biden and his son Hunter that was central to congressional Republicans’ impeachment inquiry into the president. He entered his plea to a felony charge in connection with the bogus story.

When they talk about privatizing Veterans’ care and Medicare, they mean allowing companies to provide healthcare for a profit. But how do companies make those profits? By *denying* care to many who need it. Don’t get fooled by the “privatization” label. It means “for profit” and YOU are the cost.

🔥🔥A 2021 study found that Medicaid expansion as part of the ACA led to a substantial reduction in mortality, primarily driven by reductions in disease-related deaths. A 2018 study in the Journal of Political Economy found that, Medicaid reduced infant and child mortality since the 1960s and 1970s.🔥🔥

the only 7 words dems need to use for the next 4 years are “how does this bring down egg prices?”

2 years as Speaker and still no budget. But an anti-trans bathroom bill gets passed in less than a day. Republican priorities.

So, I read smart people. There is a playbook for this next chapter. I believe we can do this. It won’t be easy, but the map is there. Featuring resources & wisdom from Dr. Erica Cheoweth, @prisonculture.bsky.social @mskellymhayes.bsky.social, @jaclynf.bsky.social & more.
