May this Eid day bring peace to your heart, happiness to your home, and countless blessings in your life. Stay blessed and remember that Eid al-Adha brings the message of sacrifice. It's about sacrificing your ego, arrogance, and selfishness to become a better version of yourself! Stay blessed!

The rise of Islamophobia on X is outrageous, specifically around @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social 's win in NYC election. Elon Musk has turned that social media platform into a hatred machine.

The “One Big Beautiful Bill” slashes $1 trillion from Medicaid and other vital health programs, threatening coverage for millions of low-income Americans. These cuts will result in worsening health disparities and straining hospitals already burdened with uncompensated care. #OBBB #Trump

🌟NYC Primary, Islamophobic Reaction🌟 With Zohran Mamdani’s triumph in the New York City Democratic mayoral primary on June 24, we saw a disturbing surge in hate. According to CAIR, more than 6,200 Islamophobic posts flooded social media in just 24 hours—a fivefold increase in anti‑Muslim rhetoric

One of my favorite fruits of the summer season: 🥭 Mangoes of Pakistan 🇵🇰. They are rich in taste and sweet. Totally different from the sour Mexican mangoes that we usually get here in the US.

With the mainstream news attention that will be given to Biden's cancer diagnosis, I hope reporters also focus on the Trump Administration's aggressive cuts to our medical and health research that will inevitably lead to countless preventable deaths. It's happening right now.

In short, the recent battle between Pakistani and Indian forces ended in an unambiguous victory for Pakistan. It is also a warning to the West that China’s military technology, as seen in Pakistan, should not be underestimated. nationalinterest.org/blog/buzz/ho...

🔗In a world fraught with conflict, let us hope that the leadership of both Pakistan and India continues to understand that peaceful resolution through mutual respect and negotiation remains the path forward. Above all, much appreciated that the USA intervened. 🌟War destroys; diplomacy builds.

India has launched strikes deep inside Pakistan, beyond disputed Kashmir - escalating a nuclear flashpoint. Pakistan has vowed to respond. This is not routine border fire. This is the most dangerous moment in South Asia since 1999. World leaders must immediately issue an urgent & measured response.
India says it carried out military strikes against Pakistan as tensions spiral after Kashmir killings
KEY POINTS
• The operation follows a militant attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, in which 26 people were killed last month.
• India's Defence Ministry said it will hold a detailed briefing on the strikes, labeled "Operation Sindoor," later in the day.
• Pakistan reportedly said it was responding to "to this act of war."

JD Vance broke the National Championship trophy, then visited the Pope who died the next day, then visited India and a terrorist attack happened and war broke out, then endorsed his brother for mayor who lost 83-11%. What’s next on the agenda?

Trump says India's strikes on Pakistan are "a shame" Yes, sanity must prevail. Escalation to full-scale war is not an option when both sides are equipped with nuclear weapons, but the defense of sovereignty is must! #Pakistan

That's terrible. War is never a solution, particularly when both sides are equipped with nuclear weapons. Once it gets started, no one can determine the end game.

It’s a month since the administration detained and disappeared a green card holder, a lawful permanent resident. We cannot allow this to be normalized or forgotten.

This study evaluated IDSA, ICM2018, and EBJIS criteria, finding IDSA most accurate for early PJI and knee infections, while ICM2018 and EBJIS were superior for delayed and late cases. Diagnostic approaches should consider infection timing and context.
