Everything that happened to Alex Pretti is horrible, but there is one part that I just cannot get out of my mind! What do you think? #AlexiPretti #Minneapolis

If my platforms are worth a damn, then let it be said:

Justice for Alex Pretti, RN.

He was killed trying to do the right thing, standing up for the liberty & life of others. He was caring for his community while on the clock, & off it.

Abolish ICE.

Rage Against the Machine.

Truthfully - this is pretty much the only reason I stayed up until midnight this year. Just had to make sure it ended.

I shouldn’t be shocked by this. I think it’s the 5.2m kids unprotected part that really does it. Bonus: the article includes a link to search the data files for your county.

EXCLUSIVE: @laurenweberhp.bsky.social & I have spent the last year collecting school+county-level vaccination data from across the US and found that only about 28% of counties now have herd immunity for kindergartners from measles—that leaves about 5.2mn kids unprotected.

U.S. vaccination rates are plunging. Look up where your school stands.
Take a look to see what the kindergarten measles vaccination rates are in your area.

This is a wonderful piece that can help everyone - school nurses, other education staff, community members - learn how to advocate for #schoolnursing and school health services moving forward. #schoolnurses are not optional.

The news coming out of our federal public health agencies is arriving so quickly and with so much spin that it barely gives anyone time to ask the most basic question: Does any of this still resemble evidence‑based public health?

THREAD: Judge Ellis is the first federal judge to review extensive body cam video of DHS's actions in Chicago. She finds that DHS *repeatedly* misled the public and made claims that were disproven by agents' own videos.

I'll go through some of the most egregious ones here.
II. Credibility The Court next addresses the credibility of the parties’ evidence and witnesses. After reviewing all the evidence submitted to the Court and listening to the testimony elicited at the preliminary injunction hearing, during depositions, and in other court proceedings, the Court finds Defendants’ evidence simply not credible. [FN 6] Plaintiffs submitted a mountain of evidence, providing the Court with over eighty declarations, numerous videos and articles, and other evidence. Defendants did not rebut anything that Plaintiffs set forth in their declarations or testimony, even with BWC footage. [FN 6] In another case considering some of the same evidence presented to this Court, another court in this district also found that the perceptions of certain of Defendants’ declarants, such as Hott and Parra, were not reliable. See Illinois v. Trump, No. 25-cv-12174, 2025 WL 2886645, at *5 (N.D. Ill. Oct. 10, 2025) (noting a “troubling trend of Defendants’ declarants equating protests with riots and a lack of appreciation for the wide spectrum that exists between citizens who are observing, questioning, and criticizing their government, and those who are obstructing, assaulting, or doing violence”), motion to stay denied in part, 155 F.4th 929 (7th Cir. 2025).
