Thanks for being on Bluesky! So many Pats journalists are X only, and I don’t want to be abused by nazi bots while also being abused by Pats turnovers. Always enjoy your commentary and emoji game.
One day, everyone will have always been against this
She’s the only politician I’ve ever canvassed for. She lives in my neighborhood like a real human being and is great.
Thank you for bringing attention to this, Mina
The virus possesses a biological characteristic that is not found in nature. 2. Data shows that all COVID-19 cases stem from a single introduction into humans. This runs contrary to previous pandemics where there were multiple spillover events. 3. Wuhan is home to China’s foremost SARS research lab, which has a history of conducting gain-of-function research (gene altering and organism supercharging) at inadequate biosafety levels. 4. Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) researchers were sick with COVID-like symptoms in the fall of 2019, months before COVID-19 was discovered at the wet market. 5. By nearly all measures of science, if there was evidence of a natural origin it would have already surfaced. But it hasn’t.
The White House has turned COVID.gov from a public health resource into a politically charged platform promoting the lab-leak theory and attacking specific scientists and the pandemic response in general. Let’s fact check its 5 headline claims… 🧵
WHAT TO DO IF ICE COMES KNOCKING
1) REMEMBER YOU HAVE RIGHTS
2) ICE CAN AND WILL LIE TO YOU
3) THEY CANNOT ENTER WITHOUT A WARRANT SIGNED BY A JUDGE
4) THEY WILL USUALLY NOT HAVE A WARRANT SIGNED BY A JUDGE AND WILL OFTEN LIE AND SAY THEY HAVE ONE. ASK TO SEE IT BEFORE THEY ENTER
Oof
Any examples? I’m an ID doc, and this subject has been weighing heavy in my mind this week.
I know this will be a tough sell for you, but the answer 100% is Wu Tang

You’ve been such a great source of ID updates. Thank you
You guys rule
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS IN CASE OF ICE: CONOCE TUS DERECHOS EN CASO DE ENCUENTRO CON ICE:
DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR. ICE cannot enter your home without a warrant signed by a judge. Tell the agents to show you the warrant by sliding it under the door. NO ABRAS TU PUERTA. ICE no puede entrar a tu casa sin una orden firmada por un juez. Diles a los agentes que te muestren la orden deslizándola debajo de la puerta.
ASK THEM TO LEAVE. If ICE doesn't have a warrant, tell them you do not consent for them to enter your home and ask them to leave. At work, ICE cannot enter employee-only areas without permission. 2 PÍDALES QUE SE VAYAN. Si ICE no tiene una orden judicial, diles que no das tu consentimiento para que entren a tu casa y pídeles que se vayan. En el trabajo, ICE no puede ingresar a áreas exclusivas para empleados sin permiso.
REMAIN SILENT. You have the right to remain silent. If the agents ask you questions, tell them, "I wish to remain silent." PERMANECE EN SILENCIO. Tienes derecho a permanecer en silencio. Si los agentes te hacen preguntas, diles: "Deseo permanecer en silencio".
It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.
EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

@idsainfo.bsky.social I’ve been a member for years and support your goals.
These federal actions are outrageous. Please be outraged! Fascists don’t spare you because you played nice. ID docs must advocate for marginalized groups and science like we’ve always done. With our full chests.
Let's all say it out loud. These people are fascists & this is a fascist take-over of the United States. You can couch your words more carefully, but the speed and ferocity of what is happening now is part-and-parcel of a coup. The GOP in Congress has surrendered. The Dems are out of their depth. 1/
Yeah, it does *feel* eerily similar for not being the same situation. (At least not yet.)
Encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.
I’ve been thinking on the whole Elie Wiesel quote all week. We’re going to have to have courage.
laws aren’t real. solidarity is.
I’m so sorry :/
Hep B is such a beast. Feel like it’s constantly trying to trick me.
Perhaps a mutant sAg that doesn’t show on standard testing? Not uncommon in some places. Do you have records of prior positive sAg?
Functional cure with repeatedly false positive eAg seems less likely.
Very old article, but does the trick without a paywall: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC....
Sounds like you should join the @jococruise.bsky.social again next year
You know this is Leah’s baby, right? (You probably do.)
