Translation: they gave him a plane and filled his family’s pockets

My dog could have done a better job on @abcnewsbot.bsky.social with George Stephanopoulos than JD Vance re Tom Homan’s $50k cash grab.

When zero doesn’t mean zero: the limits of coronary calcium in women Coronary artery calcium scoring has revolutionized cardiovascular prevention. But in women, it sometimes underestimates the risk.

I remember years ago watching an interview with @barbrastreisand.bsky.social in which she said that heart disease in men and women is different.

She’s right. That means that doctors need to ensure they know how to identify and treat the disease in women.

Donald Trump told America's top generals: If you disagree with me and leave the room, "there goes your rank, there goes your future." This isn't leadership. It's a threat. He doesn't want a military loyal to the Constitution, he wants one loyal only to him. Yet another red line for our democracy.

Newsom's Comms team is doing the Lord's work.

Donald Trump cut funding for pediatric cancer research.

Let’s see if Thoughts and Prayers DO work.

EPA eliminates research and development office, begins layoffs The Environmental Protection Agency said Friday it is eliminating its research and development arm and reducing agency staff by thousands of employees.

The EPA has eliminated its research division, which for decades has provided the science behind regulations on clean air, clean water, and toxic chemicals.

The US can afford to monitor, research, and regulate the impacts of industries on human and environmental health. We are just choosing not to.

The debris arrives in the rockets’ wake: melted plastics, aluminum and pieces of blue adhesive. It all ends up stranded on the sands of Bagdad beach in northern Tamaulipas, Mexico.

Just across the border lies Starbase, SpaceX’s launchpad and company town. cnn.it/4lsHVaW

Welp

We traded Europe for a guy that builds concentration camps for profit.

Perhaps you should have voted against RFK instead, but I’d bet you’d vote for him again if given with the opportunity.

A modern "Nero fiddles while Rome burns" image.

Entire staff at federal agency that funds libraries and museums put on leave The staff of the Institute of Museum and Library Services was placed on administrative leave Monday morning, following a meeting between IMLS leadership and DOGE staff.

This is both evil & dangerous. When Doge is done with the country, the US will never be the same. This impacts every public library & museum in every state.

Since January, SpaceX has received over $560 million in government contracts—an amount projected to surpass $2 billion in taxpayer funding by year’s end, averaging roughly $6.1 million per day. Follow the money and see where it goes.

Is this the part where America is great again? No more NIH funding or grants for scientific study and research to advance human health?

There is a lot I disagree with AOC about. But she is a patriot who is bringing the fire and for that I am grateful.

I can see @katemckinnon.bsky.social in this skit now on @saturdaynightlive.bsky.social

Immigrants are saving the dogs!
They're saving the cats!
They're saving the homes of the people who live here!

Because they have nothing more we can exploit.

Wisdom from his many years.

This is how our democracy is SUPPOSED to work, folks.

Boring and normal.

No mob attacking the Capitol.
No incitement of insurrection.
No smearing feces on the walls.
No beating cops with flagpoles.
No crowds screaming to hang the Vice President.

Just a normal, peaceful transfer of power.

Regulate Dick, Not Jane.

Blatant lies, but not called on it. While the story right now is the terrorist attack, Johnson, Trump, et al should be questioned about this in time. Unfortunately, Trump 2.0 will be filled with this continued division and hate.

But if my mom voted for the clowns, I can only feel so much anger.

You may not understand why, but the healthcare insurance and PBM contracts YOU have signed for Tesla, SpaceX , @X, along with CEOs of other big companies , have more impact on healthcare costs and quality of care in this country, than anything you can do with DOGE
