The president should be impeached and convicted, as should everyone responsible for these outrages. ICE should be disbanded. So should the Department of Homeland Security. And the people who have killed should be investigated and brought before judges and juries.
Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti "We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the 'hero' term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump's murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

Tell your senators to rein in ICE NOW act.indivisible.org/sign/ice-out...
As it turns out, unaccountable mobs of armed and anonymous goons rampaging through American cities is really unpopular. Who’d a thunk it?
👋 Dems! Vociferous opposition to ICE is not just the right and patriotic thing to do, it is also a winning “kitchen table” concern to the American people.
Curious to know why @reppaultonko.bsky.social because I’d have expected a different vote based on your recent email communications, hoping you can please explain? TY #marcorubio #unqualified
Protesters gather in Albany, NY yesterday.
The murder of Renee Nicole Good by DH"SS" agent Johnathan Ross is horrific proof that we need to take ice off our streets.

Members of Congress: stop posting online and APPEAR, PHYSICALLY on the steps of the Capitol to decry this unconstitutional violation of domestic & international law. SHOW THE PEOPLE the level of danger we are facing as a country.

Troops seemingly planting the U.S. flag on Venezuela - but it’s really a U.S. flag on an oil rig.
I’ll just leave this here as we reflect on the U.S. invasion of Venezuela.
It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.
The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.
Congratulations to the 19 states raising the minimum wage in 2026.
But let’s be clear: a $7.25 federal minimum wage is a national disgrace.
No one who works full-time should live in poverty. We must keep fighting to guarantee all workers a living wage — not starvation wages.
The Washington Post is wrong. We need Medicare for All.

It was reprehensible when people mocked condom usage at the height of the AIDS pandemic.
It is just as depraved to mock those wearing masks to reduce the spread of airborne viruses today.
Whenever someone takes any kind of step to protect public health, they should be applauded, not mocked.
Case on point:
Take Back Primary Care
By William M. Tierney, MD
Despite being the largest medical specialty, primary care's in crisis. There's a national shortage of 20,000+ #PrimaryCare physicians, & more leaving the field b/c adverse #Healthcare system issues.
link.springer.com/epdf/10.1007...
Dr. William Tierney: If we are going to take back #PrimaryCare, physicians need to stand up and lead too.
Read in #JGIM:
Rise Up is right! Fight for #primarycare - systems can do this too!
New #JGIM study finds that in 2022, 1/5 of women had no #PrimaryCare visits, while 10% received primary care from both #obgyn and general medicine - and received more of some potentially low- and high-value services. @IshaniG

As a #primarycare doctor we r seeing & treating many cases of #COVID & #influenza. Older adult > 70 📞last wk 6:30 am “doc sickest I’ve ever felt” not vaccinated “for anything” - he wanted azithromycin. I got him to an UC he was +H3N2. Similar stories w/Vid. Deeply disappointed in the New Yorker.
Seriously? My inbox! Years ago, I used to spend time talking to patients who had stopped their statins for secondary prevention because of this man not to mention the stuff he was shilling on his show. 🤢 #vaccineswork #savepublichealth
When society has a problem it can't solve, the answer is frequently to have the GP do it!
The obv problems with this are that: GP's aren't good at it, and it consumes their time from doing important things.
Sickening & dangerous
