Giving access to SSNs, other data on government employees to non-employees like Musk is a violation of 5 USC 552a, and carries with it a penalty of $1000 per person whose data was accessed. We are building a case. Govt employees who want to participate should contact me directly

Medical historian here to remind you of the benefits of
#vaccines!

This is the final stage of tetanus when nerves fire continuously & body contorts into agonizing posture known as opisthotonus. The mastication muscles clamp down to form the hallmark lockjaw.

A vaccine didn't appear until 1924.

Hundreds of studies performed by experts have *already* investigated whether there is an association between vaccines and autism and there IS. NO. LINK. RFK Jr. has never conducted an experiment, collected data, or published a scientific paper. And he thinks he’s going to find something. Chilling.

For everyone saying that SCOTUS can’t constitutionally end birthright citizenship… look, they’re not going to come outright and say “we overrule the 14th amendment of the United States.”

They’ll to do it the way they’ve overruled our other rights: by chipping away at it until nothing’s left.

I asked repro experts what President Biden should do before Trump takes office. High on the list: pardon people for abortion-related ‘crimes’

The only acceptable response to finding out hospital acquired Covid is 10% fatal is “why aren’t we doing more to protect patients.”

If your response is “they were going to die anyways” you need to check your ableism.

Patients go to hospital to get well & we are failing them.

A lot of people who just want to watch the world burn are about to learn they aren't fireproof
Soon they are going to learn their mistake. The only way they will learn is if we calmly and firmly explain. I’m putting aside my rage and working on my patience.

Fascinated by people who can't understand the basic concept of an ongoing pandemic.

I, like millions of other extremely high risk Americans around you, are extremely extremely high risk and medically vulnerable. MASK UP and stop drinking up right wing covid denialism.

Leak the report. Pass it on
A Democrat should leak the Gaetz report. Trump and MAGA invited a violent insurrection against our election and refer to the traitors as freedom fighters and political prisoners.

This is nothing. Leak the report. Americans deserve to see it.

Dr. Oz has called abortion under any circumstances "murder."

There are dozens of ways he could use his authority at CMS to restrict access to reproductive care.
Trump picks Dr. Oz, the celebrity TV doctor, to run Medicare and Medicaid
Oz, who has a history of making degrading remarks about women, has no government experience. As a candidate for Senate in 2022, he expressed opposition to abortion at any point in pregnancy.

I called it yesterday that Mehmet Oz would be up next.

If he actually heads Centers for Medicare & Medicaid, I fear for millions of Americans, including my stepdad, who rely on these programs to literally stay alive.

These appointments are not just anti-science, they’re immoral.

All of Trump's picks to lead health agencies have either spread anti-vaccine disinformation, opposed lifesaving public health measures during the pandemic, or promoted false health claims and unproven products.

A Trump administration endangers the health of every person.
Trump's picks to lead US health agencies:

HHS - Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
NIH - Jay Bhattacharya
CMS - Mehmet Oz
CDC - Joseph Ladapo (TBC)
FDA - Marty Makary (TBC)
Surgeon General - Casey Means/Vinay Prasad (TBC)

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens.

Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”

Today, because of innovations in crop protection, fertilizers, and genetic science, millions have food on their plates.

Science has not only filled stomachs but saved lives.

Let this be reminder of the progress we’ve made and the responsibility we have to keep moving forward.

The way people ignore disabled people exist. Darling, you are one cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, asthma diagnosis away from becoming apart of the vulnerable adults. Maybe just care about other and recognize that immune compromised individuals rely on herd immunity to stay alive.
