Fierce health equity advocate.

Known to go “rogue”. All the rage on Fox News for calling white male nationalists domestic terrorists on Jan 6th.

State lead for Committee to Protect Healthcare, co-chair for Planned Parenthood Advocates of AZ.

Fuck 47.
Thank you Governor Katie Hobbs!

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act.

Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes?
Staffer: a DL and birth certificate.
Me: The documents don’t match
Staffer: Then a marriage certificate.
Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too?
Staffer: No
Me: See the problem?

Just saw Stephen Miller outside Tysons Mall getting into a car with his security Told him to his face that he's hurting American families. He didn't look up and his security told me I need to keep moving.

I was with my son and holding a Lego bag. These men are weak, cruel cowards.

This is a moment in time when everything we do matters.

Don't stay silent.
Don't give in to fear.
Don't let tyranny prevail.

History will remember.

I’ve read several articles today referring to RFK Jr. or Geier as vaccine “skeptics”. I again beg the media to STOP SPREADING MISINFORMATION. They are not skeptics. They are lying, grifting, unqualified frauds who are promoting a conspiracy.

“Conspiracy theorists” would be much more accurate.

The same oligarchs who claim they hate government handouts are almost entirely reliant on government handouts themselves. Some would say it is hypocritical. But remember that hypocrisy is merely an expression of power.

I might call Juan Ciscomani’s office Monday and innocently suggest that he confer with @aoc.bsky.social for tips about how to meet with his constituents, since 23,000 of them showed up for AOC in Tucson today. He’s my representative (R, gerrymandering) and he’s too much of a coward to meet with us.

Did you know that the muscles that happen in tetanus can be so severe that they can cause fractures? Yet there are parents who feel that's still a dice worth rolling for the child over getting them vaccinated.
Anti-vaccine movement is a cult and it's hold is really hard to break.
Tetanus is one of the most horrifying diseases to witness. I am forever scarred from the cases of neonatal tetanus I saw when practicing in Cameroon. It is torture. It is also vaccine preventable through maternal vaccination and routine vaccinations. To see anyone suffer like that and still reject

Good news from Colorado: A U.S. District Judge ordered a school district to restore library books they banned by next week, prohibiting the district from further restrictions on access to books that the school board objects to politically.

Federal judge orders Colorado district to return banned books to school libraries
The order prohibits the school board from removing books “because the district disagrees with the views expressed therein or merely to further their preferred political or religious orthodoxy.”

NEW: In the AEA/Venezuelan kidnapping case, fed. judge says gov't filing—which was filed, but tardy—is "woefully insufficient."

Orders a sworn declaration by tomorrow at 10am. Also orders gov't to show cause why they haven't violated the TRO.

there were multiple reporters outside of the institute of museum and library services today as DOGE invaded their headquarters, but not a single elected official.

something to consider when thinking about who’s actually defending democracy.

I spent 10 years as a tuberculosis doctor working in the US and globally. Recent funding cuts to global TB programs aren't just stalling progress—they're actively reversing decades of advances against the world's deadliest infectious disease.

Misinformation and disinformation are more contagious than measles and will ultimately kill more Americans by a factor of at least 100. Those deaths will, of course, include those from measles itself.
