RFK Jr.'s plans for preventive health panel spark "deep concerns" from American Medical Association The American Medical Association expresses "deep concern" over a report that Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy plans to remove members of the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force.

The problem with RFK Jr is not that cancer screenings are too woke, it is that he isn't awake. Every day he proves his ignorance and cruelty. Please join the thousands who have signed this petition-RFK JR must be removed!

The jobs numbers were bad — so Trump fired the messenger The abrupt dismissal of the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, briefly explained.

Can't handle the truth then of course, fire the messenger. Numbers don't lie. Do your own research. Are you paying more or less for groceries than you did in 2024? Are prescription drug costs up or down?
REMEMBER IN NOVEMBER. VOTE EVERY REPUBLICAN OUT OF OFFICE!

Bravo @jonathancapehart.bsky.social for your brilliant last word tonight. You are definitely my people. Silence and optimism are not options when we are surrounded by a five alarm fire. 🚨 🔥 Speak up while we still can. It’s imperative we each do our part to save democracy.

Why limit gerrymandering to CA and NY for D’s? Hell we have CD 2 in OR! Spill out some of Multnomah County to Eastern OR and let’s take that seat too.

New resource from the Autism Society that helps to refute all the disinformation coming from HHS and RFK Jr. Follow the facts not those who try to make a buck off of others' misfortunes. Vaccines do not, I repeat DO NOT cause autism!

The new normal facing our children- HUNGER

@donnagaffney.bsky.social and I use Lulu, a fictional character to illustrate the cruelty of the GOP Congress. We’re no longer a society founded on compassion. Click link for op-ed in @usatoday.com 💔😢

Opinion: 13 million American kids are hungry. GOP just made it worse by cutting SNAP. RFK Jr. acknowledges poor diet is a contributing factor to childhood disease, but said nothing when Congress cut funding for the SNAP food program.

Congrats to @nurseteria.bsky.social and @donnagaffney.bsky.social on publishing another Op-Ed! This time for USA Today!

My colleagues @nurseteria.bsky.social & @donnagaffney.bsky.social wrote an important Op-Ed about the impact of SNAP cuts. The GOP can’t claim the mantle of “MAHA” when they undercut SNAP.

Traitor Johnson is a liar.
Traitor Johnson is a monster.
Who cuts programs that provide kids with healthcare as food!

Other Views: Bentz’s vote to cut Medicaid hurts all Oregonians - East Oregonian A doctor and a retired nurse educator from Oregon weigh in on Rep. Cliff Bentz's support to cut Medicaid.

In today's East Oregonian pediatrician @wendyhassonmd.bsky.social and I write how Medicaid cuts hurt Oregonians. Oregonians don’t want to save money by losing healthcare. Ask Rep. Bentz, who voted yes, what his plan is to keep Oregonians healthy in light of these extreme cuts that he supported😡

Thank you!!

Donald Trump says he's "allowed" to pardon Ghislaine Maxwell The convicted Jeffrey Epstein associate met with the Department of Justice to answer fresh questions.

Oh, but he hasn't given this a thought. As his personal top official in DOJ meets with the convicted sex trafficker who perjured herself a second time.

Say it with me:

LIAR IN CHIEF!
FIRE THE LIAR!!

@brucemirken.mas.to.ap.brid.gy warns of the new HIV/AIDS pandemic that may be upon us due to FOTUS and RFK Jr "draconian cuts to HIV/AIDS research, prevention, and foreign aid"!

We don't have a Department of Justice. We have a Department of Crime.

Would love to get my broom 🧹out and sweep the entire GOP out of Congress. WORTHLESS and DANGEROUS. Either that or send them in a rocket ship🚀 to outer space☄️, never to return to earth. We deserve better. #VoteTheGopOut

Congress should restore and protect HIV funding | Opinion Medical professionals Timothy Holtz and Teri Mills worked with AIDS patients in the 1990s, when treatments were few. With miracle drugs within reach, they write that they are aghast at funding cuts…

Sharing this piece I co authored with @timothyholtz.bsky.social When we entered our professions, we made a vow to protect and promote life. These commitments bind us to act in the best interest of every patient, and “first do no harm.” We will keep speaking out!

Another reason why the measles case count is most likely much higher than reported by CDC. 😡

Thank you!!

Pickets and protests should be planned outside EVERY SINGLE GOP local office throughout the summer recess. Notify the local media. Shout it from the rooftops! #ReleaseEpsteinFiles #UnfitToServe #VoteforYourConstituentsNotYourself

Doubled my sustaining donation to PBS this weekend. Have you?

GOP are dumber than a box of rocks. Vote them all out!

FOTUS has an Epstein-Barr problem and I am not talking about the virus 🦠

Keeping focus.

I’d love to have an economist take the number of average income Americans x taxes they each pay divided into the $3 trillion tax cut given to the wealthy. THIS IS SO WRONG 😑

Part of the billion dollar BBB!!!! And they claw back funding for PBS. We cannot let the evil GOP get away with this shit! Vote them all out!!!!
