America's Richest People Are Not its Most Generous
Fascinating chart with one outlier: Warren Buffett.
At the low end, giving 0.06% of one's wealth is equivalent to:
Net worth -> Lifetime Giving
50K->$30
100K->$60
500K->$300
$1M->$600
Most folks give far more by % in a *single year*.

This is something else. Lots of respect for @60minutes.bsky.social reporter Sharyn Alfonso for defending the integrity of her work.
What a disgrace for 60
Minutes. The Trump effect destroys every institution it touches.

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

For over 300 years now, it is a bedrock principle in Anglo-American constitutionalism that obedience is owed according only to law. Refusal to follow an illegal command is not only a moral choice but an absolute duty.

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

You would not fire these people—including the staff of the hugely, HUGELY important 'Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report'—if you cared at all about public health, if you wanted people to live.
And you would not let your thuggish henchmen fire people like this if you were a responsible president.
The MMR shot is safe and effective, and there is no credible evidence otherwise.
Breaking MMR into three shots means 3x more copays at the doctor’s office, 3x more hours of missed work, 3x more bummed out kiddos, and probably more than 3x as many kids who aren’t fully vaccinated.
The United States gives approximately 6.6 million doses of MMR per year. Each single dose vial contains 1.76 grams of glass, rubber, and aluminum. Add another 3 grams each for the syringe and needle.
This one change will add 62.8 metric tons of SHARPS BIOHAZARD WASTE per year.
Busy week on our clinical bioethics consult service but also had fun opportunity to get to know and teach some of our incoming @einsteinmededu.bsky.social students about Ethics ⚖️ & Genetics 🧬prior to start of their Orientation Week!

Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine.
If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.
They’re doing jobs Americans refuse to do and they’re being hunted ….

The Trump administration is again putting women’s lives at risk.
But federal law still requires hospitals to provide emergency care, including abortion, to pregnant women in all 50 states. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...
Are we great yet?

Since Trump’s mouthpiece Karoline Leavitt just lied that it won’t increase the deficit, here’s Republican Sen. Ron Johnson saying “This will increase the deficit by $4 TRILLION” and “absolutely” cut Medicaid.
They lie as easily as they breathe. Not that anyone is surprised.
