We've talked about healthcare collapse a number of times over the years and I think it's important that collapse looks and feels different depending on where in the puzzle your piece fits.

For the first time in my own career as an internal med doc, I've seen the day where my colleagues can no longer safely admit patients from the ER.

Weird, true DC story thread:
I began my career working for a member of Congress, and I still have an account with the Congressional credit union. I needed to go to one of their branches yesterday afternoon, so I drove up to the Hill…..

Horrific. In Plainfield, IL, a 71 year old man is in custody for stabbing to death an 6-year-old Palestinian child named Wadea Al-Fayoume & nearly killing his mother.😓
The murderer stabbed 26 times & yelled "you Muslims must die!"😳
No charges filed yet

The Supreme Court's recent rulings were sadly predictable for anyone who understands the hard-right agenda. Their goal has always been to install Justices whose job is to turn back the clock on our freedoms, on decades of constitutional decisions, and on our continuing struggle to “form a more perfect union” that includes all of us.
Let's vote out their political enablers and rein in the dark, subversive money that supports them in their quest to reverse a century of progress.

The same Supreme Court that overturned Roe now refuses to follow the plain language of the law on student loan cancellation. This fight is not over. The President has more tools to cancel student debt — and he must use them.
