My favorite speech about America was Reagan's last speech as president. He talks about what makes America great - immigrants. I tear up watching it, especially the last bit. highly recommend spending 4 mins to watch 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

The Donald J. Trump Administration sending every Israeli student home from Harvard University is much more discriminatory against Jews than anything Harvard has ever done by any definition.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

I couldn’t agree more with ACOG! “ACOG is concerned about and extremely disappointed by the announcement that HHS will no longer recommend COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy.” ACOG full statement here: acog.org/news/news-rele… Please retweet this. It matters.

it takes a certain chutzpah to spend years actively sowing distrust in vaccines and then lead your big oped about the need for public trust in vaccines with the line: “Vaccines have become a divisive issue in American politics."

More than 98% of families in this country choose to vaccinate their young children. But now, vaccine policy is being shaped by the small, extreme minority that doesn’t. This decision doesn’t reflect, protect or support families.

More than scientists, because if labs close this will lead to losses in jobs that support R&D nationally. Our #SCIMaP analysis estimates that FY26 NIH cuts alone will lead to $46B in economic losses and 202K lost jobs in communities throughout the US. scienceimpacts.org/fy26

It does seem worth asking why Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) will support health care provisions for the rest of the country that she thinks her state should be exempted from

Very sad news - state inflicted harm. Thinking of my friends and colleagues!

Yet another unbelievable step to undermine public health.

3/ Burroughs expressed concern about the Trump Administration's aggressive attack on Harvard—and that the same tactics could be turned on the courts themselves because of rulings like today's... She must rule 'even if doing so risks the wrath' of Trump. From the ruling:

The Administration is definitely trying to gaslight the public, on most display yesterday by RFK, Jr. statnews.com/2025/09/05/mor…

Florida Man-in-Chief Dr. Lapado admits he didn't study the impact of ending routine vaccination requirements. Ya know who did? Real scientists. Including Dr. Yvonne Maldonado, who Sec. Kennedy recently FIRED from the CDC's vaccine advisory committee. Answer: This is dangerous.

This from Bethany S. Mandel is exactly right "Acetaminophen is the only widely recommended pain reliever considered safe in pregnancy. Scaring women away from it on shaky evidence isn’t responsible, it’s cruel"
