→ Raphael Warnock: “You are a hazard to the American people”
RFK Jr.: “Can I respond?”
Raphael Warnock: “No…I think you need to resign.”
→ The EPA has approved two food-crop pesticides containing “forever chemicals,” with four more approvals planned. These chemicals will be used on vegetables like romaine lettuce, broccoli, and potatoes, per WaPo
→ Mark Cuban (@mcuban) does a great job explaining how middlemen pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) drive up the cost of prescription drugs for Americans, thus setting up the need for Congress to pass reforms
Cuban: The US has the highest drug prices in the world “because we are the only country that uses PBMs”

→ Trump’s “healthcare plan” materializes like reverse alchemy – turning gold-standard coverage into 10 million uninsured by 2034. His July megabill already cut $1T from Medicaid to fund $4.5T corporate tax breaks.
Postponing fiction doesn’t hide the nonfiction disaster: America’s largest healthcare robbery in progress.
Former nursing home executive and convicted fraudster Joseph Schwartz was pardoned by Trump earlier this month.
Schwartz secured the pardon after paying two other convicted fraudsters nearly $1M to lobby Trump on his behalf.
Everything is for sale.
Health Plan
→ So basically those of us who don’t have employer based plans are supposed to pay cash based on whatever we can save in a HSA and hope we don’t end up with something like cancer or heart disease that would wipe us out.
This is not a plan.

→ SCIENCE Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine.
If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.
→ Freedom comes from what taxes protect:
– Study without lifelong debt.
– Change jobs without losing health care.
– Have children with no medical bills.
– Get sick without going broke.
Freedom is not the absence of taxes.
Freedom is the absence of fear.
Follow for more glimpses into life in a social democracy, where dignity is not a privilege.
This administration is hell bent on destroying everything.

→ Five years ago, nurses were the heroes holding society together.
Now some want to say nursing isn’t even a “professional degree,” risking acces

There are 4 million nurses in America. We stand with you. We need you. We appreciate you.
