Well, @OpenAI just banned @ChatGPT from giving medical advice. @Doctronic is built different: peer-reviewed clinical validation, a network of licensed physicians across all 50 states, and partnerships that let us keep expanding. We're not pulling back. We're moving forward.

Today, we expect there are more people on the streets in more communities all across our country than ever before in American history. This is not the end. This is just the beginning.

“Sir, there are two passions which have a powerful influence on the affairs of men. These are ambition and avarice; the love of power, and the love of money… making our posts of honor, places of profit [will] only nourish the foetus of a KING”. —BENJAMIN FRANKLIN, June 1787 7/7

I end with a warning Ben Franklin issued at the 1787 Constitutional Convention. I think it describes perfectly what America is meant to resist, and what we are protesting tomorrow. NO KINGS. 6/7

“We have our bodies,” preached King. I hope you will show yours tomorrow—undeniable flesh and blood lining the streets for love of country, of freedoms, and of checks on power. 5/7

Keep it peaceful—no, make it peaceful. Active effort will be required. Protests attract every manner of troublemaker. Even a single act of violence across the country will contribute to a narrative that discounts us. Thus I say, make it peaceful. Make it joyful. Make it good. 4/7

I believe tomorrow will be the largest day of protest in American history. If not, it will come close. It is a chance to show those who control and abuse every branch of our government that all is not well. 3/7

By Editors, I of course mean Algorithms. For that is what they are—far more than publishers, they actively curate which writing and pictures and events we witness. From them, our view of reality is skewed. 2/7

In 2023, we sued Amazon and several top executives for tricking people into Prime subscriptions and then making it absurdly difficult to cancel. This week marked the start of a historic jury trial, where American citizens would hear details of Amazon’s business practices and

“There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, as an error which proceedeth from the ruler: Folly is set in great dignity, and the rich sit in a low place. “The words of wise men are heard in quiet more than the cry of him that ruleth among fools.” Ecclesiastes 10:5–6, 9:17

I express my profound closeness to the Palestinian people in Gaza, who continue to live in fear and to survive in unacceptable conditions, forced once again from their own lands. Before Almighty God, who commanded “Thou shalt not kill,” and throughout human history, every person

Yes, the war in Gaza is a genocide. I hope you’ll take a moment to read my op-ed here: https://t.co/Aouot49mp5

@nytimes just published a terrible op-ed on Taiwan this morning. There were so many basic and egregious errors. Of course it did not represent any views from Taiwan. Here are some edits—
