Yes!! This is my area of expertise as an endocrinologist —we have to be intentional with our time to rest and reset from all this stress. Resilience has a cost!! time.com/7071982/is-a...

YOU TELL THEM, my brother. 😤

Rumors that Elon Musk has bought a Super Bowl ad spot to promote disinformation on USAID. Excellent video here on the good USAID does in tbe world and the role it plays in promoting US Interests. open.substack.com/pub/asharang...

A central claim of unitary executive theory is that it doesn’t give the executive power carte blanche to do whatever it wants, because Congress still has the power of the purse. So even the most conservative Republicans should be up in arms about Musk. If not, this was never a “real” legal theory

This is an important read for all of us.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

As a very proud former USAID staffer, I reject this filthy, false, insane statement. This person’s powers must be immediately abrogated.

Bloomberg: Musk said DOGE was shutting down payments by the US Department of Health and Human Services to Lutheran Family Services, a faith-based charity that has been providing social services to refugees. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

We cannot let this stand. Call your representatives *EVERY* DAY until this stops. NO ONE voted for Elon

This should enrage *every* taxpayer.

A clear explanation of how the Trump/Musk power grab will do untold harm to us all. This is a 5 alarm fire. No president, regardless of party, should have such direct control over the disbursement of federal funds. Now, a thread on what to do:

Reminder: Elon Musk is NOT an elected official or government employee. Time to call our actual elected officials. Info here: www.house.gov/representati...

Black homeowners began arriving in the 1960s. This made Altadena one of the first integrated middle-class communities in Los Angeles, and residents today are particularly proud of this history. - Xochitl Gonzalez

I am utterly heartbroken by this story out of Altadena We need to include the disabled community in emergency planning. RIP Anthony Mitchell & Justin people.com/father-missi... #EatonFire

Elon Musk is on track to become the world’s first trillionaire. Imagine if his wealth was capped at $999M, and we taxed the rest (~$239B). We could: End homelessness: $20B End hunger: $40B annually to 2030 Build homes: 710K new homes at $308K each A trillion for one or a future for all?

#Medsky #MedEdSky Holiday Update 5 years ago today, I went to the Holiday show for my middle son, who was in kindergarten at the time. Later that afternoon, I met with the palliative care team for my eldest son who was struggling with a severe life-limiting illness

Hi #medsky and #MedEdsky Nice to connect with all of you! Here’s a little info about me: www.uclahealth.org/news/article...
