Hello! 👋🏼 I’m Gloria. Feels like OG #MedTwitter! I work at UCLA Health developing #MedEd programs focused on reducing stigma and increasing access to care for people who use drugs. I live in the SoCal town that burst into flames the day after the election, so send good thoughts for our community. ❤️‍🩹

CNN plays video of an encounter between a federal immigration agent and a US citizen where a 19-year-old man is chased through a Walgreens before being tackled as a woman yells that the man is her brother-in-law, and that he's here legally.

"He's a citizen! He's a citizen!"

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

ABOLISH ICE and EXPAND THE SUPREME COURT should be mainstream Democratic promises and talking points.

But timidity and civility will rule the day and screw the rest of us and this country in the end.

Mike Johnson: "They berated a Capitol police officer, screamed at him. He was merely standing his post. It shows, again, their disdain for law enforcement, the Democrats, screaming, assaulting officers."

When fear becomes a tool of policy, health collapses. From ICE raids to crowd control, state power is leaving trauma in its wake (premature births, PTSD, chronic illness). The data is clear: violence doesn’t protect us. It poisons us.
