📢 New research! 📢

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

Which is to say, even if countries agree to negotiate trade, Trump will still keep tariffs on their goods

NBC News @nbcnews.com · May 8

UPDATE: President Trump says deal with the U.K. is close, but 10% tariff remains on some items.

Trump confirms he will sign first post-tariff trade deal with Britain

President Trump previously dismissed critics asking about how many deals he has brokered, after he paused plans for some tariffs last month to allow for negotiations.

The facts are, the ACA saved millions with pre-existing conditions and set standards for care.

But now, more than a decade later, with what we now know, it’s time to take the insurance companies out of the mix.
The subsidies they get are enormous. We don’t need them as middlemen.

The Hegseth hearing is doing one thing incredibly well: it’s establishing that when his leadership at DoD fails, it’ll be clear that GOP Senators knew, excused it, and they own it. Serious concerns about experience & judgment are literally being laughed off.

Thank you so much!
I was a pediatrician for 30 years and saw acts of great compassion and kindness. Your resident and fellow giving of themselves to comfort a dying patient is in the finest traditions of our profession. They will inspire others. My deepest admiration and respect to them.

Please…
Tell them there is no judgement. Just curious. Also tell them they could take of my family any time.
“To cure sometimes. To heal often. To comfort always.”
I am proud to call them colleagues.

@thanhneville.bsky.social I saw your post about the patient who died on Christmas Day and the 3 Wishes team helping with a fellow and resident easing the transition by providing the comfort of personal touch by music. If they are willing to share, can you ask them what their selections were? 🙏🏼
