The one absolute rule in medicine is “don’t mess with nurses“. The correct answer to every other medical question begins with “it depends“.

I’m sure Jake Tapper has a book planned for 2029 on the topic.

If you look closely in Tom Cotton‘s eyes, you can see the gaping, vacant abyss where his soul used to be.

Possibly the most entertaining thing about that entire subset of the new cycle is the rhetorical flourish reviewers have allowed themselves in excoriating the madness.

I would agree with minor adjustments, though I haven’t seen Solo. I would rank Rogue higher than any of the I-III, VII-IX editions. Obviously Andor and Rogue One do the best job of capturing the spirit of the original series.

“A brain worm appears to be running public health in this country, so we have to fire people who actually know their jobs.”

This is EXACTLY why we need Derek to weigh in. 😂

I mean, to be fair, that’s pretty much all tactical gear. 😂😂😂

I think it would be wonderful to see your thoughts on styling 5.11, Triple Aught Design, or Vertx for civil war wear. Maybe with a subdued Hermes scarf for panache.

I mean, just on principle, yes.

Some people think this is an exaggeration but I will say that if I were HHS Secretary and my goal were to kill as many children as possible, it would be difficult to distinguish the actions I would take from those that Kennedy has taken.

I hadn’t read the books ahead of time, so I’ll just say the first season was great, and I stopped watching maybe three episodes into the dreary GoT ripoff that was the second season. Not surprised it was cancelled.

Milton Friedman said that you will never elect the right person. You just need to make it politically expedient for the wrong person to do the right thing.

RFK Jr fired the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices panel on Monday. Today he replaced them with people who have no expertise in vaccines or immunology. They're quacks from the $6.3 trillion a year wellness industry 👇

Having been in the military, this is honestly better than some places I’ve been. Lots of things to criticize about this deployment, but the troops themselves are laughing at Gov. Newsom’s take here.

This is such a fundamental betrayal of medical ethics, it’s shocking that he has an MD.

Dr. Oz, CMS chief, when asked about people who might lose their healthcare with Trump‘s “big, beautiful Bill“ says “go out and prove that you matter“.

These words are a disgrace to him as a person, and as a physician. People matter because they are people, not because they are units of utility.

Why would there be an override for the trash compactor inside the chamber? It’s not like anyone could get stuck in there.

Maybe Jake Tapper can dig it up for his next book. 😂

Also, if that was on CNN, it seems like a clip that would be worth digging up now.

This is one of the themes of @jasonkpargin.bsky.social ‘s most recent book. Part thriller, part social commentary. “Trust is the only advantage humans have as a species, that millions of us can all get together and trust one another. Yes, including weird people you just met earlier in the day.”

I think his style is distinct enough, and fan base broad enough, that someone is going to give him the credit in a comment pretty quickly.

US Health Secretary, RFK Jr: "none of the 72 vaccines given to children have been tested against placebo "

Fact check:
Children are not given 72 vaccines.
All approved child vaccines have been tested against placebo.
