As a one time @MSF_USA and @MSF_france volunteer surgeon I looked the other way too many times. Now @powellAtlantic has pulled the thin cover off of deep seated antisemitism in the humanitarian space. Well done, @TheAtlantic archive.ph/2025.03.27-163704…

We launched our new speech clinic at #SAMS-supported Idlib Central Hospital! The clinic is currently helping 9 #Cochlear implant recipients, preparing 10 more, and supporting many speech-disorder cases. Your #donations made this happen. Thank you! #Syria #Healthcare

Please remove your “@MSF” label in your X profile and resign from your leadership role in MSF-wherever-you-are. You cannot repost these sort of messages and maintain neutrality. You are very welcome to your opinions but not such lies in the humanitarian sphere
Not only injured and killed but also bodies literally ransacked and organs lifted; how will the Palestenian body we all share ever recover from this horror?

Hey @ElectrifyAm, why are so many of your #seattleEVcharging stations out of service? And the ones that work are “reduced charging speed to improve your experience?” Not great. @Hyundai you might want to switch the free contract to another company

This freebie arrived in the mail today. I guess we used to learn CPR… now I’m more likely to save a life by administering Narcan. It’s a sad commentary…

Pro-lifers don't like complexity. At 17 weeks my placenta detached and he was much too small. I thought I felt my baby's frantic attempts to breathe. My OBGYN advised me to terminate the pregnancy, there wasn't much time. But I couldn't.

I’m a gun owner. Do not tell me our Founders conceived of this carnage when they wrote the Constitution. Do not tell me they would have tolerated this madness. Do not tell me that teachers must be armed. And do not tell me your AR15 is worth more than another 14 children’s lives.

Can you run for President? Please?
Oh my god. I’m shaking. I’m just shaking all over. With fear. With anger. With resolve.

Listen, I'm full of sadness and fury right now. That's what you're seeing here. But I'm also determined. And pragmatic. If there is a single of my GOP colleagues who is moved to action by what happened today, I am ready to work with you. I am ready to compromise. To save lives.

A thought leader, Trail Blazer and humanist who I have always greatly admired. This is is a remarkable achievement for anyone but especially a woman of color. @zaracMD you make us all proud @SocietyofBAS @harvardmed @HMSalumni. Well deserved.
