This is still so wonderful. Asking questions, exploring options comes to mind.
One of the most important things we can do for our children is to help them get in touch with and fine-tune their own inner truth compass ❤️🧭 #parenting #parentingtips

I had no idea. Interesting
Seems like a good day to remind everyone that Trump’s ex-wife Ivana wasn’t an American citizen until 1988. She gave birth to Don Junior in 1977, Ivanka in 1981, and Eric in 1984. — Let’s cancel their birthright citizenship first.

Here are 10 ways that Trump’s Big Ugly Bill will make your life more expensive: 1. Your utility bills go up as we lose clean energy investments and electricity costs more; 2. Your rent goes up as predatory housing companies artificially jack up prices;

This is not true: the Clinton effort was led by VP Gore who assembled a task force of hundreds of federal workers to spend 6 months looking across gov’t and issue recommendations by September 1993. The recommendations became BIPARTISAN legislation that was passed into law.

Hey! @elonmusk your doge minions just fired me and my colleagues at CMMI. We were working on improving maternal health outcomes AT LOWER COSTS so that less pregnant women would die in this county. I thought that would fit nicely into your agenda?

Such an important post
All my life I have studied democratization and autocratization. My 1st field trip was to newly democratic Argentina. I then added autocracies to my portfolio: Cuba, Ven, etc. I think I can recognize the stages of transition to authoritarianism. Here are the boxes checked off.

Check out Cost Plus even if you have insurance
Replying to @costplusdrugs
@costplusdrugs @mcuban Thank you to Mark Cuban for bringing down the price of prescription drugs. My insurance wanted $400! for a generic drug for 30 days. Without insurance its $1400 Cost Plus $12.43 for 90 days! We are being ripped off by Pharmacy Benefit Managers!

I ran @USAID health programs for the last 3 years. Trump’s 90 day Stop Work Order on foreign assistance does serious damage to the world and the US. Examples:🧵

Can we please stop saying Elon did the Nazi salute because he’s Autistic? It’s insulting to Autistics. My daughter has Autism and she knows full well the implications of that salute.

I’m shocked by how misinformed the men in my life are on abortion bans. Most of them support a woman’s right to choose - but they don’t understand that bans put lives at risk. One said to me “I’m sure they don’t impact women who WANT to start a family”. They do - here’s why 🧵

With so much turbulence in life right now, remember self care! Keep it simple, take deep breaths, help out where possible, turn off the news, slow down and be together.
