This. Is. Everything. A great clapback to AI while also pointing toward the relevance of their "product." I'm here for it.

I'd prefer to trust my doctor about medical info as opposed to having someone getting kickbacks for the legislation they propose providing that info...

It’s already been a discussion point before… but OMG - what happened to the concept of the Supreme Court? It is NOT nor NEVER was meant to be partisan. What world are we living in!? #supremecourt

Reading ‘Becoming Madam Secretary’ by @stephaniedray.bsky.social Cannot for the life of me get over how much it reads like our current state of affairs. I keep exclaiming to random people and sending screen shots of passages just to say, ‘why can’t we learn from the past instead of reliving it??’

Translation: Christmas is cancelled. Trump's man-made economic crisis could lead to empty shelves and disrupt supply chains as early as 2 weeks from now. Every single free market-loving "pro-business" elected Republican should be pushed on this today.

We fought for our independence. We fought to end slavery. We fought against the rise of fascism in Europe. We fought for civil rights. I refuse to believe we have lost the will to fight for what is right and just.

They are trying…and making headway toward their goal every day…to squeeze every last breath out of the lungs of democracy. At that point, they plan to stomp on the lifeless corpse. You already know that, but sometimes it helps to see it in print. If we let it slip away…it’s gone forever.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Former CDC director Dr. Tom Frieden nailed it: “The only winner here is the tobacco industry and cancer cells.” Cutting smoking prevention programs is a gift to Big Tobacco. Thanks for Making America Healthy Again, Bobby! 🙄 www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

HHS gutted programs to help people quit smoking. The impact could be deadly.
Cuts to the CDC and the FDA, experts say, could reverse hugely successful campaigns to reduce cigarette smoking rates and curb teen vaping.

Every child in the U.S. deserves quality education, but Trump who demolished the Dept. of Ed to benefit billionaires hurt students. Higher education, job training, and special ed services will be cut, making opportunities harder to reach. We must stand up and fight against this. #MomSky

Even if we make it out of all this (gestures at state of US politics) intact, there are so many institutions that have broken our collective trust with preemptive capitulation. The one that hurts most for me is universities. Maybe it’s naive of me, but I thought more would fight back
