Nothing has killed more soldiers in the history of humanity than disease. While worst is a more complicated question Hegseth is absolutely the dumbest secretary of defense the United States has ever had. bsky.app/profile/ones...

CDC Quietly Appoints Doctor Critical of Vaccines as Second in Command. During the Covid-19 pandemic, Dr. Ralph Lee Abraham promoted discredited treatments like ivermectin and, as Louisiana’s surgeon general, halted the state’s mass vaccination campaign. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/25/h...
Stop violence.
Tone down hateful rhetoric.
Pray for peace and love.

Multiple Medical Societies Demand RFK Jr.'s Resignation — "American people will needlessly suffer and die," infectious disease, immunization groups warn

Illinois Gov. Pritzker ahead of Trump National Guard deployment:
"To Chicagoans... Look out for your communities and your neighbours. Know your rights. Film things that you see happening... Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America."

The newly ousted director of the CDC refused to fire top agency leaders or approve changes to vaccines from RFK Jr.’s hand-picked panel of advisers.
Abbe Lowell and I represent CDC Director #SusanMonarez. Contrary to govt statements, Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor yet been fired. She will not resign. We have issued the following statement:
National pediatrics group splits with RFK Jr. on Covid vaccinations: The American Academy of Pediatrics recommended the shot for all children between 6 and 23 months | STAT www.statnews.com/2025/08/19/p... via @statnews.com
So ridiculous. (And so familiar)
Sounds like this survivor of Epstein and Maxwell is saying she'd take Trump pardoning Maxwell as an admission of guilt, which sounds like a smart message.
Very much enjoyed coaching Nashville Aquatic Masters 5 and 6 AM practice this morning. Great to start the day with such terrific, motivated folks
I have precisely zero conflicting feelings about missing/dead children.
Medicaid is not a money laundering scheme and you are a sorry excuse for a Senator, Lindsey.
Today RFK Jr. fired every member of ACIP, the CDC committee that makes vaccine recommendations. Children will die. This is not ok. Lindsey Graham enabled this.
Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t.
Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me.

FDA is set to restrict access to Covid shots for healthy people 6 months-64. I asked HHS if initial shots will be available to infants; no answer. One former CVS executive thinks healthy ineligible people who want a shot will face new costs.
