I am a trained doctor right up until I have to eat healthy, sleep 7-9 hrs nightly, exercise daily, and avoid alcohol.

🚨 THIS IS TRAGIC US Marine Corps Colonel and combat veteran, Doug Krugman, "resigned from the military because of Trump," after 24 years of service. He wrote in an op-ed in the Washington Post stating, and I quote: "United States military officers take an oath to defend the Constitution without mental reservation or purpose of evasion. I swore or repeated that oath under five presidents, starting with former president Bill Clinton. I risked my life for it, serving as an infantry officer in two wars. I watched Marines die for it." "No commander in chief is perfect. President Clinton’s moral failures are well known. President George W. Bush’s invasion of Iraq might be one of the worst errors in U.S. history. All recent presidents share responsibility for our failure in Afghanistan. I continued to serve despite all that because I believed the Constitution brought the country more success than failure, and I believed our presidents took their oaths to it seriously." "With President Trump, I no longer believe that. During his first term, his actions became increasingly difficult for me to justify, culminating with the Jan. 6 attack on Congress as it tried to execute its duties. I hoped he had learned from those errors, but it only took a few days of his second term for me to realize he had not. I could not swear without reservation to follow a commander in chief who seemed so willing to disregard the Constitution." "Worse than immorality, however, has been President Trump’s willingness to disregard the law and Constitution to achieve his goals. When asked in May about the Fifth Amendment requirements for due process and if he needed to uphold the Constitution as president, the first words out of his mouth were "'I don’t know.'" "Instead of trying to work within the Constitution, or to amend it, President Trump is testing how far he can ignore it. If voters and legislators cannot close the gaps in our laws to clarify the limits to presidential power, those who serve our government will continue to struggle. The next president — of either party — may continue us down this path toward collapse." "I voluntarily gave up my rank as the president suggested, but the future of our country is more important than any individual’s career, wealth or power. I have no regrets about my decision. I have given up the service I loved for the freedom to do the right thing, the freedom to speak my mind and the freedom to speak in defense of our country."

Staggering numbers by the Lancet. Vaccinations have: - Averted 154 million deaths - For every death averted, 66 years of full health were gained on average = 10.2 billion years total - Accounted for 40% of the observed decline in global infant mortality

Autism was discovered and defined in 1943. Tylenol didn't hit the market until 1955. This information took me less than 3 minutes to find.

Babies, amirite? Supersonic jets of gas spew from a newborn star in this new infrared image by @NASAWebb: go.nasa.gov/3RrVADD The bright regions are called Herbig-Haro objects, and they form when star particles collide with nearby gas and dust, forming intense shockwaves.

The results from our DEVICE trial are out in the @NEJM . In this RCT, direct laryngoscopy was inferior to video laryngoscopy for first-pass success. In fact, it was so inferior that we had to stop the trial early after DSMB review due to the clear benefit of VL. This is the 🔨 nail in the ⚰️ for DL. While it's an important skill, VL should be the standard when it's available. If it's not available, we need to make it available. nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NE… #emergency #emergencymedicine #icu #criticalcare #airway #military #war #trauma #data #science #research #armyemdoc #medtwitter #foamcc #foamed

Some of the same members of Congress who supported a bill that'd block student loan debt relief had millions of dollars in PPP loans forgiven. But when it comes to hard-working Americans getting student debt relief, that’s where they draw the line? It's wrong.

A young girl didn’t want to slaughter the goat she raised for 4H. The state senator who bought the goat at auction agreed to let it live out its days eating weeds. But sheriff’s deputies drove 500 miles to kill the goat and teach a 9-year-old a lesson. latimes.com/california/story…
