This should be 25th amendment level conduct. The president ordered water to be released from a random dam in California nowhere near the wildfires and then claimed it would help. That’s literally Mad King behavior.

BREAKING NEWS: It is much worse than previously reported: Not only were at least 30 federal attorneys who worked on January 6 cases fired, but all six of the FBI's most senior executives and multiple heads of field offices have been escorted out. This is terrifying.

FBI Director nominee Kash Patel promised no retribution. The next day, we have this grotesque purge at the FBI. Bondi said she would examine pardons on a case by case basis. Then Trump gave 1550 pardons overnight. Their confirmation commitments mean nothing.

“Despite these glaring patterns, misogyny remains unrecognised as form of extremism. Misogyny is not and cannot remain a side note to these acts. It is central to understanding and stopping these tragedies. We must call it what it is: a form of terror.”

I built my entire future on the hope of securing NIH funding. Now, countless junior faculty like me are watching our academic dreams slip away. We’re not just losing careers—we’re losing the research breakthroughs we could have delivered. Here’s hoping this NIH crisis ends soon. #medsky #NIH

It should be commonsense 'not to visit friends or family in hospital if you are feeling ill, even if you think ‘it’s just a sniffle’. 🤦'What is a sniffle to you, might be a life-threatening flu infection to a vulnerable person.' www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottis...

The January 6th attacks weren’t just a dark day—they were a violent, harrowing warning that our freedoms and democracy are under siege. We can never forget, downplay, or excuse the gravity of what happened. Our democracy demands action, and we must stand firm to protect it!

Spineless admin. Could always just close the comments. We can’t run our lives based on the comments section. Patients have a disproportionate chance of dying from this administrative cowardice.

If you need any more proof of the coordinated lies on the right, look no further—even AFTER they knew the New Orleans terrorist was an American-born citizen, they kept pushing the lie that it all happened because of our “wide-open border.” FACT: Unlawful border crossings are at a 4-year low.

It’s 2025… can we start masking in hospitals this year? Can we stop insinuating that hospital acquired covid is “inevitable” or that those who die were going to “die anyways”? Can we call it what it is? An epic failure of infection control to protect those who put their lives in your hands:
