If you are >40 & alive today you can thank science & medicine.
I say all of that to say that this insanity about degrading the medical infrastructure in this countey has to stop. Millions of people will suffer because of the defunding and politicization of the leading science bodies in the US.

Today, people live to be triple digits in age. The factor is not organic food or any other diet or environmental advancement. It’s science. Science keeps you alive longer. Science knows how to prevent & tx diseases that killed everyone 100 yrs ago.

In the 1800s, same story except life expectancy jumped to mid-thirties with the help of some medical advancements. Still ate all organic food, no pesticides, minimal pollution….mid-THIRTIES. >90% of the people on my friends list would be dead.

Just a reminder that cave people had an avg life expectancy of 30 years…they ate organic food, free range game, and the air and water were free of pollution. THIRTY YALL.

Trump’s crushing bill takes away SNAP benefits for anyone with internet access at home.

I will say it again….Republicans have decided that if you can afford a basic utility (internet), then you do not qualify for SNAP.

Cruelty is the point.

MMWR reminds us that tularemia exists… “Consider tularemia in febrile pts with a history of tick or deer fly bites, contact with ill animals, or mowing over a rabbit or rodent, even in areas of the US, such as Minnesota, where tularemia is less commonly reported.”

David Huerta, an American born in CA, was thrown to the ground, pepper sprayed, and arrested by ICE for peacefully observing protests against ICE kidnappings.

We are all David Huerta.

Don’t get distracted. Donald Trump is the escalation. He has ordered 700 marines to enter CA, federalized the national guard against citizens, and ordered the unlawful arrest of CA Governor Gavin Newsom for the crime of, “Running for office.”

Trump’s Border Czar (whatever that is) Tom Homan threatened to arrest Gov. Newsom if he interferes with deployment of troops against CA citizens. Like the badass that he is, @governor.ca.gov responded, “Tom, arrest me. Let’s go.”

Stand strong LA. The country and the world is with you. 🫶🏻

Immigrants kidnapped by #ICE will no longer be housed in Glendale as the CA city terminates its contract with the federal agency.

Trump just federalized the national guard. Currently around 300 national guard soldiers are in LA where lawful protest against ICE kidnappings have been ongoing throughout the weekend. This is not okay.
