Good morning! Today is World AIDS Day.

Today is about honoring those we've lost, uplifting those living with HIV, and standing firmly for science, equity, and truth -- even when others step back. ❤️‍🩹

You guys. Stop.

A credulous press is hurting the republic
President Trump said today he'll release the results of his October MRI scan, after Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz called for him to do so and claimed that the president is "fading physically."

Trump said he had "no idea" what part of the body was scanned because it was "just an MRI," but the results were "perfect."

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1

Who needs doctors when you have nurses and patients who talk about doctors the way these folks do…..? Docs don’t denigrate their colleagues, but nurses can’t wait to talk you how awesome they are…. Why I hate the healthcare culture. You have 1-4 patients. We have 15-20+ on service. But ok.
Nurses usually have far more personal relationships with patients. Complaints. Questions. Gratitude. Docs don't pay as much attn & nurses usually set them straight. WE NEED NURSES.

To our USPHS colleagues deployed to ICE:

These missions are hard. We see you.
Keep providing the most compassionate care possible 💚

And if you see harm or neglect - SPEAK UP
Report it through the channels.
If they ignore you, leak it. (DM us; we can help)

Your duty is to protect human lives 💚
ICE is hiring dozens of health workers as lawsuits, deaths in custody mount
Nearly as many migrants have died in detention so far this year than over the four years of the Biden administration.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression
The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

Hey Megyn Kelly,

14-year-old Eloise would like a word:

“If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good…
because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.”

Sound up! 🔥🔊
