The entire pediatric community is shocked and heartbroken over the shooting of Dr. Katherine Lindley Dodson in Austin, Texas. We grieve with her family, her colleagues, and her patient community, who have lost a caring pediatrician, friend, and mother.

Nope ... doesn’t matter at all ... leave this out unless you include for White patients too
So....do medical vignettes REALLY need to include race? Like, really? Why does your vignette about uncontrolled hypertension and medication non-compliance need to include a Black patient? 🙄 what exactly are you teaching?

Since we're doing old videos of Marjorie Taylor Greene harassing people, here's her from before she was elected, in Feb 2019, turning up in Congress to try & get @IlhanMN & @RashidaTlaib to retake their oaths on a Bible & not a Quran: (h/t @ehananoki) https://t.co/YMr7InKYqZ

The only Senator refusing to wear a mask as he signs the oath is former doctor @RandPaul. An embarrassment to the Senate and to medicine.

This. You are ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES ... do your jobs!
Many of them rode the wave of this violent rhetoric, or at the very least sat idly by it. Now is our chance to stop it. This is what we are sent to Congress to do - the tough stuff. All the easy choices are taken. If any GOP need advice on how to deal with it, they can call me.
