Urgent: how to help save a young protester’s life. I cannot believe how many years we’ve had to recycle this dystopian practice. God, when will it end? #ErfanSoltani

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was once the world’s most trusted guardian of public health, but over the decades, bureaucratic inertia, politicized science, and mission creep have squandered public trust. We’re rebuilding that trust and restoring its clear and

Pay attention to this excerpt: “We are seven months into the new administration, and no CDC subject matter expert from my Center has ever briefed the Secretary.  I am not sure who the Secretary is listening to, but it is quite certainly not to us.”

Meet my guest tonight, Dr. Lauren McGee of Rockville. A life-saving biologist working to cure pediatric bone cancer, Dr. McGee was sacked by Elon Musk along with the whole probationary federal workforce. She was on “probation” because she'd been promoted for her superior work.

Want to know one of the biggest problems in healthcare? Deductibles. Deductibles are defined by the plans the insurance companies design. Then they are approved to be offered by the feds or employers. Then we the people decide what deductible we want when we choose our plans.

This is more than a "cap" on the National Institutes of Health.  This is an attack on future research for cancer and heart disease. This is an attack on vaccine development. This is an attack on medical experts, scientists, students, and teachers.

Democrats don’t “claim” gun laws would curb gun violence. States with stronger gun laws have fewer gun deaths. It’s a fact.

Kids returning to school shouldn't have to worry about the threat of gun violence, but yet another community has been tragically affected by a school shooting. AAP mourns with all affected in GA and will continue to advocate for policies to keep kids safe and to #EndGunViolence

Firearm Restraining Orders (FROs) can stop a momentary crisis from becoming a tragedy. That’s why we’ve partnered with @AdCouncil and @IDPH on a new PSA educating people in Illinois about FROs. Visit https://t.co/XA4HOwMrtR to learn more.
