Quick intro! I’m an ER/Critical Care nurse in the great state of Michigan, specifically Ann Arbor (#GoBlue!). Outside of ER, I’m passionate about teaching/mentoring, public health, basketball, plants, coffee, podcasts, live music, and putting my shopping cart back after using it. Be kind and say hi!

clarifying for non-experts a bit:
a) there is no vaccine-autism link.
b) lots of antivaxxers (eg RFK) promote a vaccine-autism link (which is false)
c) JB acknowledged no vaccine-autism link…
d) …using squishy language, eg "[no] single vaccine causes autism" & “other vaccines are less well studied”

There are so many gullible reporters (aka stenographers) who have no expertise in the longstanding antics of the anti-vaccine lobby
Such reporters haven’t learned about Wakefield & the kooky unsubstantiated trope that vaccine *combinations* cause autism
Such reporters need a different beat

The reason the Constitution is cumbersome for what you want to do is that it was expressly written to prevent you from doing it.
Mike Johnson speaks out against the use of judicial warrants in immigration cases:
"Imagine if we had to go through the process of getting a judicial warrant"

The GOP conception of public health is no public health.
Florida is a testing ground for these deeply irresponsible, dangerous policies—a model red states all across the country.

“Let me completely make up a fictional scenario, where a Republican is the victim, as always, and Democrats are evil for not protecting the fictional Republican I just made up”
Ron Johnson on Ilhan Omar getting attacked: "Let's talk about how crazy this is. Had that been a Republican member of Congress and an illegal immigrant spraying something at them, in Minneapolis what would probably happen is they would release that illegal immigrant."

Especially for my fellow healthcare workers, and of course anyone else - wear black in mourning to honor Alex Pretti and all of those harmed by ICE.

I’m overwhelmed and deeply saddened by the countless tragedies on display. I watched the video and read about yet another victim — Alex Pretti, a fellow ICU nurse — who, by all reasonable accounts, did what any of us should do in the face of such cruelty. He tried to help, and was executed for it.

I’m completely fed up with elected Representatives saying shit like, “Republicans will tell you behind closed doors that they don’t agree with what ICE is doing”.
Playtime is over. Professional courtesy no longer exists.
Name them, record them, and make it public.

The government is taking people who’ve done everything the right way, and who go to every appointment and fill out every piece of paperwork and abducting and hauling them to Texas and making them start the whole process over again

Thankfully. The real question is when are these refs going to stop rewarding these players obstructing their own landing zone?
After review, it's a common foul on Stew. Brunson will try to complete the 4-point play. Even after the make, Knicks are only shooting 3-17 from the floor this quarter. Pistons have been great defensively

Look, I'm a #Midwest apologist, but this is a tough state to recruit #doctors. #Michigan is one of the few states in country where largest #economy is still #manufacturing, and... #auto parts suppliers are paying $1.3 million in #tariffs.
How does that affect #healthcare? See below

I’m going to The Game today and the walk up has been a tad tense lol. A group of Buckeyes were talking shit and an older lady in M gear said “JD Vance is from Ohio and he’s an asshole. So you must be too.”

The world is an absolute dumpster fire, but my favorite team since I was a kid is the second-best team in the NBA with the longest active win streak. This team plays with so much heart every single night. Whew.

Trump is withholding funding that’s *already there* for SNAP. They’re using hunger as a political weapon by choice.
While federal Republicans willingly let kids go hungry, we passed $70M in the State Senate to do what we can.

Happy #EmergencyNursesWeek to my fellow ER badasses who keep showing up through rain or shine, full moon, or code brown (and sometimes all of the above 💩). I wrote this three years ago and still stand by it, especially as more is asked of us. “We’ll figure it out,” but more people need to listen.
