The American Medical Association has stepped up with some information and reports in the wake of the CDC jumping the shark, but I don't know that any org can take over what they did.

"You can walk away."

.... Damn.

That hits hard.

Rachel's face said it all.

Anything labeled "work ethic camp" is giving major 1943 Austria vibes.

YIKES doesn't cover it.

Excellent advice. Stay strong, New York.

Know your rights. Protect your neighbors.

New York is — and always will be — a city for all immigrants.

Why does every woman in this administration look like she spent more time perfecting her eyeliner than thinking about literally any policy or plan for anything??

Hello beloved #Maddow minions!!!

I love when Rachel calls out astronomical things like the solstice.

We will make it through into the light, friends!

That moment will always stick with me.

Amanda Gorman was the light we needed that day and every day since then.

Bad Guys always sends me to Pratchett: "bad things happened because ordinary people, the kind who brushed the dog and told the children bed time stories, were capable of then going out and doing horrible things to other ordinary people. It was so much easier to blame it on Them." #Maddow #LastWord

I love Sen. Whitehouse and his particular brand of "are you effing kidding me with this stupid bullshit."

The badass ladies of the #SistersInLaw podcast did an awesome breakdown of this issue in last week's episode. Thank you @barbmcquade.bsky.social @joycewhitevance.bsky.social and @jillwine-banks.bsky.social for explaining all the elements of servicemembers refusing illegal orders!

But you also have to recognize that there may come a time when you cannot do these things anymore."

We can also learn from people around the world who have done this in their own ways."

Well-planned and organized boycotts can be effective!!

The retirees are helping save us, which I doubly appreciate as a millennial since I'm clearly never going to be able to retire.

I hope all my #Maddow minions had a nice Therapod Thursday last week; my household ate dinosaurs (or rather, dinosaur descendants) and shared dinosaur facts.

Very done perpetuating a harmful, untrue story as a basis for a holiday.
