Join ICE today cmon

Post from the New Yorker: ICE wants YOU to put on a MASK to do your JOB. But NOT like
during COVID when YOU didn't WANT to wear a MASK. This time, it's NOT for protecting OTHERS from HARM-it's for protecting your IDENTITY while YOU harm OTHERS.

Their complaints that Dems oppose the “rural hospital fund” are so hilarious.

Kind of like: “I’m going to burn down your house and give you a chocolate chip cookie instead.”

“That sounds terrible.”

“What you don’t like chocolate chip cookies!?”

Literally in tears. People outside of healthcare have no idea how devastating this is.

Like, I had a subscription as part of my job as an infection control nurse.

I feel sick.

Just in case: MMWR is a key frontline indicator for outbreaks. The first subtle hint of AIDS was in that publication. This is the pale horse that Death rides.

happy bday Eleanor Roosevelt, b.1884, NYC.

“I believe that democracy is based on the ability to make democracy serve the good of the majority of the people. If it can’t do that, then it should not survive.”

“If silence seems to give approval, then remaining silent is cowardly.”

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.
