2/to what it’s not investigating

1/Compare what DOJ is investigating…

The majority of Americans can't afford an unexpected $1,000 emergency expense, and in a country with notably expensive health care, this is a recipe for disaster. And of course, this has ripple effects because the Trump Admin blocked a Biden Admin effort to keep medical debt off credit reports.

“there is no evidence of acute medical conditions resulting from passive exposure to fentanyl or methamphetamine (such as from touching contaminated surfaces or inhaling second-hand smoke)”

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

Have you seen the commercials advertising knee braces that are “completely free with Medicare!”? Yeah, those are dumb and help no one and Medicare should stop covering that.

Totally blocking DME enrollment is going to bring more harm to injured people and is irresponsible policy.

It's just insane the degree to which the federal government has simply declared war on a U.S. state. A punitive war with no discernible objective other than to immiserate its people. bsky.app/profile/apne...

Welp, folks, better wrap yourself in bubble wrap and never leave the house cuz the government just told injured patients to go fly a kite

I think the people expecting drunk hockey players to rebuff the POTUS are forgetting that hockey players are notorious dummies even when sober and hydrated

All of Linda’s books are great, and you should read them!!

Do not let this man’s excellent social media team fool you. He really sucks.

I spent years trying to explain and expose exactly what @markhisted.org is saying right here.

The billionaire class has always been looking for ways to capture society and break institutions. Pay attention. Do not give up. Expose them.

I get that this is a minor point here buuuuuuuut I’m back to fucking hating Matthew Tkachuk. It was a nice 10 hours.

Oh, no way!? The man who was told 💫from birth💫 that he was a literal prince, was special, was to be waited on and revered just for breathing, was entitled??? The man with a literal royal title was entitled??

Maybe Andrew is especially a cunt but the whole system needs to go.

This is a win for veterans everywhere. The fact that this was proposed in the first place was an insult to every person who has ever put on the uniform.

We will continue to hold this administration accountable to make sure our promises to those who served are kept, period.

Incredible opinion. It holds that the common ICE tactic of jumping out of an unidentified rental vehicle and seizing suspected noncitizens while masked violates the Fourth Amendment because the *manner* of the seizure is incompatible with a free society governed by the rule of law.

I want to hear what every single athlete has to say about the drones. The noise is driving ME nuts. I can’t imagine…

Yes and no. But mostly yes.

The best example of “no” is rheumatic fever. People would survive strep throat but their bodies (hearts and kidneys, to be specific) would still be harmed by the immune response to the infection.

And then there is the tax write off part…

“nothing is real until it hurts me” slogan replaces “don’t tread on me” slogan on a Gadseden flag

how we got here

It starts with showing up.

Couldn’t get a picture, but drove past yet another small anti-ICE protest in yet another working class neighborhood of Cincinnati.

We have the numbers. We just need to do the work.

I’ve said it before: the only thing that explains elected Republicans’ determination to support Trump’s objectively unpopular policies is that they don’t believe they’ll need to win a fair election.

Otherwise they’d read the same polls we do and moderate.

They are going to try to steal this election. I know it’s illegal. I know “they can’t just…”.

The masses have to stop them. We have to stop them.

Jan. 6 rioter pardoned by Trump is convicted of child molestation Andrew Johnson tried to bribe a child victim with the promise of a Jan. 6-related payout, prosecutors say. Trump has discussed the possibility of compensating rioters, but no one has received any paym...

Jan. 6 rioter pardoned by Trump is convicted of child molestation against 2 children

He attempted to keep one victim quiet by claiming he would receive $10 million from the Trump administration as restitution for former Jan. 6 defendants and would share the money with the victim in his will 😑🖕

If my 42 years of being human hadn’t taught me this, my 15 years of being a surgeon/ICU doctor most certainly has.

New SAVE Act Bills Would Still Block Millions of Americans From Voting The “show your papers” requirement is an attack on the freedom to vote.

The SAVE Act would require American citizens to show documents like a passport or birth certificate to register to vote. Our research shows that more than 21 million Americans lack ready access to those documents. bit.ly/4rA2p4R

And it’s really not difficult. Like, they are so dumb AND self-serving.

It’s not gross. It’s part of life. Everybody poops. Look at your poop. Not knowing about your poop can only harm you.

An emergency general surgeon who has asked thousands of strangers about their poop.
