I have some breaking news: a list of all the countries with which the Trump administration has failed to make a tariff deal.

This news is devastating. "It's not a surprise" is an unhelpful response. The point is that vast numbers of people with long COVID, or immunocompromised and at risk, are harmed by this cruelty. It IS, of course, precisely, cruelty. #COVID #longCOVID #publichealth

Trump’s Commerce Secretary just said seniors shouldn’t “call and complain” if they stop getting their Social Security checks: “A fraudster always makes the loudest noise screaming and complaining.”

A high school classmate of mine has pancreatic cancer. Enraging that our government would *choose* cancer over patients.

Now we know why Elon and the Orange Menace were so keen to visit Fort Knox: gold is the only asset currently increasing in value.

NEW: Rudy Giuliani has listed his Manhattan apartment for $4.18M; a $1.46M discount! I’ve written an ad:

"There’s no Father’s Day card for men who turn their daughters into second-class citizens....How many little girls will grow up able to say their dad traded their rights away for a bit of political power & a pat on the head from the world’s worst man?" -@jessicavalenti.bsky.social on #Vance

The National Cancer Institute (part of NIH) released new guidelines for "controversial, high-profile or sensitive" keywords that require "review prior to publication" if included in a product or materials. Keywords include abortion, obesity, and peanut allergies.

I don’t know where Zelenskyy is staying while he’s here in West Russia, but I hope he’s on the ground floor.

He nails it.

In 2020, the military was adamant about refusing to get involved in the election. That's why Trump hates General Mark Milley so much. Now, Trump is transforming the military into one that will back him up in 2029. We need to figure out how to prepare for that eventuality.

The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.

- Napoleon-"He who saves his country, violates no law." - Hitler– “The good of the state stands above the law.” - Mussolini– “Everything within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state.” - Francisco Franco– “I am responsible only to God and to history.”

NEW: The CDC is currently removing all the influenza resources from their website during the worst flu season in decades.

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

Now if we could just get the AMA to support universal health care.
