Clowning is the way— here’s a fabulous fossil fool 🦕

Remember: Fascists fear fun 🤡

Mirthful resistance de-escalates.

It deflates right-wing narratives.

It reveals shared humanity.

The stakes lower when it’s Army versus Barney.

Stay safe, LA.

Don’t forget, the VA, Doug Collins and Elon almost completely shut down VA hospitals with this move. No environmental monitoring contracts equals no OR, no pharmacy sterile compounding, no equipment sterile processing.
“The list of killed contracts includes those covering sterility certification for VA hospital pharmacy operations, facility air quality and safety testing to prevent transmission of infections, and sterile processing services to decontaminate equipment and medical instruments. “

Racism is when you believe a white guy is innocent after a jury has concluded 34 times that he isn’t, and you immediately decide an immigrant is guilty when the immigrant hasn’t even had a chance to present their defense.

It all makes more sense when you realize DOGE was never about saving Americans money. It was about gaining access to your data and building a weaponized political machine to use against the public.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

AOC: Donald Trump is a criminal. He was found guilty of 34 felony counts of fraud, found liable for sexual abuse. If he wants to find the rapists and criminals in this country, he should look in the mirror

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

To ensure fair elections in 2026, we must stop the GOP’s voter suppression bill in the Senate. House Republicans have passed legislation that would restrict access to the ballot & end online and mail-in voter registration. Tell your senators to protect voting rights by rejecting this dangerous bill.

“For millions, hope is all we have. But that’s okay.
Because we are in a hope era.
And when the time comes, that hope will become belief, the belief will inspire actions, and those actions will deliver results.”
This is our hope era

I’ve heard many of these, from myself and my colleagues. People who have dedicated our careers to serving Vets and our country. The fallout will be extraordinary and the care for Vets and their family members will suffer.
“There are no exceptions.”
That’s what VA doctors are being told as they’re forced back into cubicles doing virtual care—while being told their work doesn’t matter.

My latest: A flood of VA whistleblowers explain why they’re leaving.
