In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Infectious Disease Specialist/Epidemiologist, Global Health & Care and Treatment Technical Advisor, Dr. Neuro, has been let go from the CDC. None of this is ok... None. 🥹

Can you imagine FDR saying to Churchill? This is exactly what tRump’s doing… Thanks, @reallyamerican.bsky.social

“Russia fought for that land in Ukraine and lost a lot of soldiers doing it, so Russia should keep it.” ~ so says the self annointed king. 🤔 I worked hard to steal that car! I broke a few nails doing it. The car should be mine! Right?

Over 120,000 Japanese Americans forced into imprisonment in internment camps simply because they were of Japanese heritage.

House Republicans plan to cut $880 billion from the Medicaid budget. That is the entire Medicaid budget. You think they won’t strip the sick, elderly and disabled of their healthcare? Exhibit A: USAID

DISEASES ERADICATED OR DECIMATED BY SCIENCE: 1. Chickenpox 2. Diphtheria 3. Measles 4. Pertussis 5. Pneumococcal Infection 6. Polio 7. Tetanus 8. Typhoid 9. Yellow Fever 10. Smallpox DISEASES ERADICATED OR DECIMATED BY RFK JR. OR PRAYER: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

At work, I am the only medical "expert", and some of the guys are trying to be as healthy as they can. So they've decided raw milk is the way to go. I tell them it's dangerous, but I'm compromised by "Big Pharma"... And now the CDC will be agreeing with them. Back to the Stone Ages.

“You need to think this stuff through, dumbass,” the 4-year-old said.

When Joe Biden was elected, America’s allies were willing to accept that the Trump era was an aberration. That bridge is now burned. It will take a generation to regain their trust and that’s assuming we get the chance.

Goldman: "My Republican colleagues are so weak and afraid of Donald Trump that they're willing to undermine their own constitutional authority just to please them. You're giving away your own power in fealty to Donald Trump."

Of all people to complain about a performance…

that’s right.

Pete Buttigieg speaks out. og Team Pete: "Meet iPad Pete." 😂

I’m sorry but Elmo announcing he’s looking for and finding fraud is hard to take when he is literally busted for paying gamers to play games for him to make him number 1 gamer in the world.

Imagine Ontario switching the power off after game time begins, and blaming it on a glitch! I know, it’s so petty! 😂😂😂

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

Great point.

Sorry if I've offended anyone today. I'm just very tired of it all, and wish people would shoot the enemy instead of one another.

Just imagine if as much rage were as directed at the Republicans for what the Republicans are doing as there is at the Democrats for what the Republicans are doing.

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

My God, I feel this post as much as any I have read in the last month

Being constantly stressed out is beyond exhausting.

From peace on earth and no more wars to inserting US troops into the longest and most vexing modern conflict in the Middle East.🤔

WOW! Have you seen all those posts calling Trump ‘Genocide Don’ or the Free Palestine protests outside the White House today? Yeah, me neither.

This is what will happen when RFK Jr is approved: Vaccines will be eliminated Testing for neurodivergence will also be eliminated No testing means diagnosis statistics drop. RFK will look like the hero who cured autism…

It is kind of hard to find out who the actual bad actors are and who are just lazy, cynical people who don't want to fight.

Murphy: "This is a constitutional crisis that we are in today. Let's call it what it is."

Think about how fast it went from Trump personally is not liable to prosecution for official acts to Trump’s big Nazi donor’s extralegal and unaccountable goon squad is not subject to arrest.

We need to fight hard and we need to fight to win. We need to bring aggressive litigation. We need to stand in the town square and say we will be stronger than the billionaires are and call out what Trump is doing is wrong. That is what I am doing every single day. I hope you join me!
