Physicians and researchers forcibly removed from the ADA meeting after distributing an article that criticized our administration's drastic reductions in NIH funding and spread of conspiracy theories.
The article was published in Diabetes Care, the ADA's flagship journal this year.

You know what should be an impeachable offense for a U.S. president?Saying every election result you don't like is "rigged"/"stolen".When you have the "bully pulpit" you undermine confidence in all voting when you do that.Of course he doesnt care.Which should be impeachable too.

THEIR PRIORITIES AND OURS.
President Trump wants $500 billion more for the military for new weapons of destruction and endless wars.
Mayor Mamdani wants $22 billion to address the housing crisis in NYC and build 400,000 units of low income and affordable housing.

BREAKING: Donald Trump executed 3,642 securities transactions during the first quarter, averaging nearly 58 trades for every U.S. trading day.
This translates to roughly nine trades every hour or about one trade every seven minutes during market hours, per YF

Bottom line: The president should not be able to own and trade stocks. Or the vice president. Or members of Congress.

Trump is asking taxpayers to foot the bill for a $1.8 BILLION slush fund for his MAGA cronies.
Sorry, Mr. President, we’re not going to provide financial support for January 6th insurrectionists who attempted to destroy American democracy.
Beyond outrageous.

Some perspective...
May 18
Estimates from @BrownUniversity show that American consumers have spent $41.5B extra on fuel (~$316 per household) since the start of the war ... for perspective, that exceeds the $31.5B needed to completely redo the U.S. air traffic control system

While we are cracking down on Medicaid fraud, how about we crack down on tax-exempt hospitals who refuse to see Medicaid patients?
If your "community benefit" includes turning away or otherwise obstructing access for Medicaid patients, you should lose your tax exemption.

Amazon cut 30,000 jobs & got a $7.8 billion tax break
Meta cut 8,000 jobs & got an $8 billion tax break
PayPal cut 4,800 jobs & paid $0 in federal income taxes
Disney cut 1,000 jobs & paid $0 in federal income taxes
Corporate tax breaks don't create jobs. They enrich the 1%.

The Trump Administration says the war in Iran will cost $25 billion.
That’s a lie.
This war could cost over $1 trillion—thousands of dollars for every household in America.
Invest in housing, education, and health care—not illegal and unconstitutional wars.
END THIS WAR NOW.

Big Oil is making a $30 million windfall profit every HOUR by using the Iran War as an excuse to rip off commuters at the gas pump.
This year, Exxon will be spending $20 billion of its profits on stock buybacks.
We must end the Iran War and pass a windfall profits tax — NOW!

Republicans, independents, Democrats need cheaper healthcare too!
Tennessee gets it. Indiana gets it. Pennsylvania is starting to get it.
DJTJr if you can get some republicans to support the Break up Big Medicine Bill , then the pricing of HC truly changes for the better
It’s not an efficient market.
Breaking up ATT opened the door to low cost communications. This is the path for HC !

Sabastian Sawe and Yomif Kejelcha are sensational runners. They would be fast in any era.
But it’s also insane to see a 65-second improvement on the men’s marathon world record in the year 2026.

Worth noting that four of the top five in today's London Marathon -- including the first two men in history under two hours -- were wearing adidas' new Adizero Adios Pro Evo 3.
It weighs under 100g -- about 30% lighter than adidas' previous supershoe.

What the investor class refuses to acknowledge is that the social contract has been broken and the majority of people (i.e. the 99%) no longer see having billionaires around as being more beneficial than harmful.
