#BREAKING: Talarico: โ€œTheย president of the United States just said that I insulted Jesus. You wanna know what insults Jesus? Kicking the sick off their healthcare while cutting taxes for billionaires. You know what insults Jesus? Deporting the stranger and separating babies from their mothers. You know what insults Jesus? Bombing innocent school children in #Iran and sending our brave men and women off to die in another forever war. You know what insults Jesus? Covering up the #Epstein files and then refusing to prosecute a single person in them.โ€๐Ÿ˜ณ

This woman spends all her time yelling slurs in Congress. She shouldnโ€™t be there. We deserve real policymakers, not made-for-tv hatred.

Impressive to craft a piece of legislation that both hurts people and grows the deficit
CBO's final verdict: House-passed One Big Beautiful Bill adds $2.4 trillion to the deficit despite enormous cuts to Medicaid and SNAP because the tax cuts are so large.

The Trump administration is ending multiple HIV vaccine studies, and the NIH has been instructed not to issue any more HIV vaccine research funding in the next fiscal year, with few exceptions. ๐Ÿ“: @celinegounder + @Alexander_Tin, @CBSNews kffhealthnews.org/news/articโ€ฆ

Donald Trump hit the golf course today after another disastrous week in the White House. He has now spent more than 25% of his second term golfing โ€” the laziest president ever.

81 days have now elapsed after the date Trump promised he would easily end the war with one phone call to Putin. Putin continues to bomb civilians daily while Trump plays golf and does nothing.

Trump made a HISTORIC blunder during his speech while bragging he canceled $8 million in funding to turn Mice โ€œtransgender.โ€ The funding was for TRANSGENIC studies, where scientists introduce human disease cells like Alzheimerโ€™s to study a cure. Unreal.

To all women (and quite frankly men) out there no matter what party affiliation โ€” we should all be offended by being pushed back into the dark ages by being called DEI hires. Really? Pathetic that people would turn a blind eye to comments like that.

The Inflation Reduction Act, which capped the cost of insulin at $35 a month for Medicare patients, was signed in 2022. Trump was famously not President in 2022. All he does is fucking lie, about everything.

Say it with me: Politicians don't belong in the exam room. Politicians don't belong in the exam room. Politicians don't belong in the exam room. I cannot fathom what this poor woman is going through.
BREAKING: Late tonight, the Texas Supreme Court temporarily halted a lower court ruling that would have allowed Kate Cox, our plaintiff with severe pregnancy complications, to have an abortion to protect her health and future fertility.

Iโ€™m an emergency medicine doctor. When you come to my ER, I will take care of you even if your beliefs are different than mine. My job is to take care of patients. If you would deny a patient care because they have different beliefs than you, then you should not be in medicine
