It’s far past time for Medicare for All. Here’s what you need to know.

Members have been threatened with expulsion from AMA because the new CEO is best friends with Oz.

Gregory Bovino is exactly who E.B. White — author of 'Charlotte's Web' — warned us about DHS named its North Carolina anti-immigrant effort "Operation Charlotte's Web." In 1940, White wrote of the "smell" that "rises" from those who "adjust to fascism" over freedom.

Viktor Orbán’s Hail Mary. I was editor in chief of Hungary’s most-read independent daily until a pro-government media network bought the newspaper. It’s the fifth time in thirty years that politics has cost me my job—and it’s ...

If you have heard me or other observers talking about the "Orbanization of the media system" in the U.S., but you weren't sure who Viktor Orbán is and how he operates, I can recommend this article by a Hungarian journalist, Iván Zsolt Nagy, who has lived throught it all. www.cjr.org/opinion/vikt...

No one should have to face such threats.

It would’ve been nice if Greene had realized this before she amplified and endorsed calls for executing Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama.

I want a government that doesn’t sound like a deeply damaged, bratty boy when it communicates with citizens exercising their First Amendment rights.

What does freedom mean to you?

Have you asked your low info voter friends that?

Have you told them what it means to you? Does it mean masked men brutalizing random people—guns in your face—tear gas on your street?

Have you ever shared a video about #ICELawlessness?

Silence is complicity.

Before anyone gets too carried away here.

Through every shutdown in history, the government has still provided economic data to the American people.

They aren’t doing it this time because the numbers are fucking terrible.

“Our job right now is draw moral lines in the sand to show the differences between Democrats - who are fighting to protect American democracy - and Republicans - who are fighting to destroy it.”

In normal times, it would be a major scandal for the President to direct his AG to criminally investigate his political opponents to deflect from his own involvement in a major scandal — and for the AG to immediately announce she is doing it. The Epstein scandal and cover up just got even bigger.

Why the CMA Must Break with the AMA If the CMA follows AMA’s lead, it is only a matter of time before convoy-aligned doctors in Canada are positioned as “experts” inside Ottawa.

Florida just equated childhood vaccination with slavery.

The CMA’s response? Linking arms with the AMA—an institution that looked away as disinformation captured U.S. medicine.

Solidarity isn’t policy. Canada needs independence, not borrowed outrage.

Authoritarianism never responds kindly to bending the knee. @ama-assn.org you are completely on the wrong side of the history to give more credibility to Mehmet Oz.
They only stop if you present the most vigorous possible pushback.

Dr John Whyte posing with Dr Mehmet Oz with a book on decreasing cancer risk through food.

All this, to bend the knee to Trump. Even worse, the new boss in town at the AMA, John Whyte, is holistic-woo adjacent and may be helping MAHA to eventually control the AMA (playing the long game).

"dishonorable discharge" on all future physician job applications.

3. Medical students and residents, who intrinsically report to attendings, are being threatened with loss of representation in the AMA House of Delegates if they even try to protest Mehmet oz.

2. On background, an anonymous current AMA member informed me that criticism of Oz will be silenced multiple ways:
- if you bring a poster to protest Oz, you may be subject to removal by police
- if you attempt to protest, you will be expelled from the AMA, and will be required to report this

@kylegriffin1.bsky.social the @ama-assn.org has caved to Trump. They invited known grifter Dr Mehmet Oz to give a speech, but, the AMA board/ John Whyte decided to censor all delegates in the following way.
1. Questions can be asked, but all must be vetted.

. @whyshoulditrustyou.bsky.social recently had a "a lively, respectful conversation" with Del Bigtree, seen here cheering for a Nurenberg trial against doctors & scientists.

This is what it looks like when sheltered pundits treat serious issues as a parlor game, especially after the CDC attack.

ICE agent pointing a firearm at unarmed civilians

Prosecute all who do this.
The most basic rule of gun ownership is to not point it at anything you don’t intend to destroy. ICE was engaging in intimidation. Document them all and prosecute them all.

I just walked out of federal court where I pleaded NOT GUILTY to the charges against me.

I will continue to stand up to authoritarianism and call this out for what it is: a political prosecution.

The plan to end vaccines is to say that every study requires an inordinate number of patients and resources to carry out before the current FDA will review it.
When companies decide it is too expensive to make any new vaccines, they will stop making new vaccines.

'It's insane': ACA policyholders say soaring health insurance premiums are jeopardizing lives Colorado mom Astrid Storey, a thyroid cancer patient with an autoimmune disorder, was recently notified of a jump in her monthly premiums under the Affordable Care Act.

Trump & the Republican Congress don't even have the concepts of a plan to help them and sadly the Senate deal only promises a vote & not a solution. We need people in Congress with the courage to actually help Americans afford their health care. #healthcare #shutdown

In an unforgettable Veterans Day moment, former President Barack Obama surprised dozens of Korean and Vietnam War veterans as their Honor Flight landed in Washington, D.C. The veterans, fresh off their flight from Madison, Wisconsin, were greeted by President Obama himself.

Michael Bennet: The current system is in dire need of help. The American People are hanging onto their fingertips when it comes to the cost and availability of healthcare. There is no rich country in the world that doesn't have a universal system, or routinely supply access to doctors and care.

A Different Kind of Patriotism Today, more than ever, America needs its veterans to remember that their oaths to the Constitution do not expire.

“Our oaths did not expire simply because we took off the uniform.”

Former Navy pilot Ken Harbaugh shares a powerful Veterans Day message about service, sacrifice, and what real patriotism means — inspired by Marine Master Sgt. Mike “Top” Washington.
