You said nothing when Iranians were slaughtered in the worst massacre of our time. Now, you speak up to defend the terrorists that killed them.
You are a disgrace. The city of New York, the U.S., the Iranian people, and the world sees you now for what you are. An inhumane, heartless defender of terror.
Your legacy will live side by side with the Islamic regime: on the ash heap of history.

A moving and important speech. Thank you @bariweiss and @TheFP and @NellieBowles for the work you do – at Philadelphia, PA
Antisemitism is never about the Jews; it’s a warning system. It’s a sign that the society itself is breaking down, that it is dying. It is a symptom of a much deeper crisis.
Watch our founder @bariweiss’s speech at @FedSoc. thefp.pub/3svlLPC

As an adjunct professor at Columbia Journalism School and a Columbia College and Columbia Journalism School graduate, I condemn today's letter signed by dozens of Columbia faculty members. Seeking to put the kidnapping, rape, torture, and murder of innocent Israeli civilians in "context," or referring to the Hamas terrorist attack on October 7 as "just one salvo in an ongoing war" is deplorable. Equivocating about violence against innocent people is wrong, whether we are talking about children in Gaza, women in Israel, or college students across the United States who are suffering from anti-Semitic and Islamophobic threats every day. This statement does not represent me and I hope that other Columbia alums and faculty of conscience join me in this rebuke #columbia
Columbia/Barnard faculty have signed an open letter supporting our students, making the point that identifying with the suffering of Gazans and historically contextualizing the current war in Israel/Gaza is not anti-Semitic. Please read and share. docs.google.com/document/d/1…

This ⬇️ is so important. As a vegan for 13 years, nothing frustrates me more than seeing vegans overstating the power of plant-based diets, not acknowledging the healthfulness of fatty fish, & denying the evidence of multiple other healthy dietary patterns (Mediterranean, DASH) – at Newport Beach, CA

This is horrific. Democrats are in charge and should push this through. POTUS should do something right!
18 years old isn't old enough to buy guns or ammo.
1- Change age to 21 at least
2- Enforce Red Flag Laws federally
3- No assault/ automatic weapons
4- Restrict magazines.

Maskless hypocrisy from sea to shining sea.
Remember to mask up for speech therapy tomorrow, kids!

Nothing says now is not the time to loosen restrictions like a 25000 person gathering to watch a sporting event!

7- The biggest threat in my opinion remains in over-reaction and over-reach by government agencies, causing panic, providing misinformation, leading to closures that hurt those most vulnerable among us.

You're vaccinated. Did EVERYTHING to protect yourself & your loved ones. You got COVID.
You feel discouraged, ashamed.
DON'T BE.
Omicron is ++ contagious. You're feeling better, or will soon, BECAUSE you're vaccinated.
YOU'RE protecting our hospitals/ICUs.
THANK *YOU*. 👏👏

For all those who lost, sacrificed, suffered, and served in the last 20 years of war and occupation, the United States has a singular responsibility in extending safe refuge to the Afghan people.
That is the absolute floor.

In my field of medicine, hubris is our greatest foe.
So to me, trust in public health would skyrocket if leaders simply said “we don’t know” more often.
Plus, with #COVID19, “we don’t know” fits so much.
(Rare) point of disagreement w/Gottlieb here in that sometimes saying "we don't know" is the best one can do IMO and that's better than providing false certainty. But it does seem like the efforts to model COVID spread have been wanting.

Endorse
The pandemic has underscored the value of trust.
Imagine if most folks had an unrushed trusted primary clinician? Would vax uptake be higher?
The convenince of walk-in care and telehealth isn’t all upside
Trust is HUGE in (individual and public) Health.
For trusting relationships, unhurried conversations, care. This is #WhyWeRevolt @patientrev

As it is in all of medicine and policy, interventions have downsides.
How tragic that #COVID19 interventions protected the rich laptop class at the expense of the working class and the kids.
Gosh. I know the algorithm is designed to outrage, but this is outrageous!
This is among the most depressing things I’ve read in a while. Baltimore City Schools: 41% of high school students earn below 1.0 GPA foxbaltimore.com/news/projec…
Proud of my state representative @Porter4DaPeople for standing up for her beliefs on the governors emergency executive orders. So poised and well spoken westport-news.com/news/artic… Our reps should never feel threatened or bullied by the governor’s office. @GovNedLamont #NewHaven
