Casey Means is not qualified to be surgeon general. She did not complete a residency and never practiced medicine. She believes and profits from fringe ideas.

The senseless killing of an ICU nurse and then smearing his name should attract condemnation from every lawmaker and citizen with a conscience. Enough! Republicans can stop this now!

THEY DID IT. EVERY SENATE DEMOCRAT just voted on an amendment to DEFUND ICE (rescind the BBB slush fund that keeps ICE open during a shutdown.) This amendment failed, but it shows broad support! KEEP CALLING and make it a demand to vote for the DHS funding bill!!

👀 Every Senate Democrat + Collins and Murkowski just voted for the Bernie Sanders amendment to repeal the $75 billion in additional ICE funding under Trump’s “big beautiful bill.” The measure failed 49-51.

Some anti-vaxeers think polio isn’t a big deal. In the US 1950s, it caused ~20,000 cases of paralysis per year. Iron lungs, crutches, and braces were everyday sites. The Trump administration wants us back in the 1950s. We can’t forget what that means. www.theatlantic.com/health/2026/...

Polio Was That Bad

One of RFK Jr.’s vaccine advisers recently floated the idea of stopping vaccination against the virus. It would be catastrophic.

We need a full and complete investigation into Renee Good’s death. The DOJ is refusing to do so. It’s yet another disgraceful cover-up.

Screenshot of an X.com post by FactPost (@factpostnews) quoting an “MN Doctor” saying they learned Renee Good still had a pulse eight minutes after being shot by an ICE agent, and that a physician’s offer to administer aid at the scene was denied, adding it angers medical staff trying to fulfill their duty to care for Minnesotans. Below the text is a photo of a man speaking at a podium in front of a group of people wearing white coats.

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again. www.nature.com/immersive/d4...

This line graph illustrates the percentage change in agency staff levels from the previous year for nine major U.S. federal scientific and health organizations between the fiscal years 2016 and 2025. The agencies tracked include the CDC, Department of Energy, EPA, FDA, NASA, NIH, NIST, NOAA, and NSF. For the majority of the timeline between 2016 and 2023, the agencies show relatively stable fluctuations, generally staying within a range of +5% to -5% change per year. However, there is a dramatic and uniform plummet starting in the 2024–25 period. Every agency depicted shows a sharp downward trajectory, with staffing losses ranging from approximately -15% to over -25%. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) shows the most significant decline, dropping to roughly -26%, while the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) shows the least severe but still substantial drop at approximately -15%.

it doesn't have to be this way. If RFK Jr would let CDC run it's vaccination campaigns, we could slow this down. Vaccination is the best way to stop the spread of measles. Vaccination helps protect the most vulnerable and youngest of our communities. Talk with your doctor about vaccination.

Many don't realize that the most vulnerable or immune compromised depend on the rest getting vaccinated properly to keep diseases from spreading out of control. It's not just “my body, my choice” when it comes to saving lives.

Screenshot of a NewsWire post on X displaying a headline stating that U.S. vaccination rates are declining and that no county in Idaho, Louisiana, Oregon, Tennessee, Utah, or Wisconsin has reached kindergarten herd immunity. The headline cites The Washington Post and appears on a plain background without an accompanying photo.

That’s going to cause all hell to break loose. USPS is the only legal carrier for government contracts. The postmark is critical under federal procurement law to ensure on time contract submission. Congress will have to direct USPS to follow existing policy, and not invent stupid nonsense.
