Retired surgeon & cancer survivor hopeful we can reform healthcare & reduce gun deaths. Don Quixote, wannabe, tilting at windmills, dreaming impossible dreams.

“how hypocritical - and self destructive- we can be when rooting for our own home teams above all else. Blind partisanship is destroying our country.” Jerome Adams TRUTH BOMB from former Surgeon General. Both sides take note.

Yes the zone is historically flooded, Iran, immigration, Venezuela, Greenland, tariffs, voter ID, mental health, suicide, gun violence, vaccines, but the healthcare dysfunction remains. lowninstitute.org/office-hours-w…

@DutchRojas “All health care providers? Doctors, hospitals, who? As I am riding in an ambulance after suffering a fractured pelvis in a car accident or shot by an Ice agent or having chest pain, an MI can I check the price? This is such nonsense.

A single judge just overrode the HHS Secretary, sidelined an advisory committee, and froze a presidential directive. That alone should concern everyone. And the result? • Mercury back in vaccines • Hep B for all newborns • COVID vaccines for babies back on the schedule MDs—celebrating this is a mistake. It’s shortsighted and won’t hold up. It will be overturned. You don’t have to agree with these policies to see this goes beyond a judge’s role. This kind of precedent cuts both ways. It’s not a stable system—it’s a race to the bottom.

@smerconish Surprised? When did you start believing the nonsensical derangement smear any time anyone criticized or questioned Trump. Disappointed you have become so comfortable helping perpetuate that divisive narrative.

@smerconish Of course but both the Trump derangement and Trump devotion cults struggle to do so.

We have truly opened pandora’s jar. The adolescent hubris that launched this attack with a frightening ignorance of the consequences beyond creating generations dedicated to launching another 9/11 is a mistake we will pay a high price for. doximity.com/articles/3c97c…

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public. I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are. 1/ Here's what I can share:

@kevinmd Sorry for my skepticism but getting this genie back in the bottle, retrieving this bullet long after it has been fired is unlikely, bordering on impossible.

When a hospital buys a doctor's office, the patient is usually the one who pays the price. Over the last 20 years, hospital systems have been acquiring independent practices at record rates. They promised better coordination and lower costs. Instead, we got "facility fees," increased red tape, and physician burnout. Dr. David Wild breaks down the 6 reasons why ownership is NOT the same as collaboration. It is time to put clinical judgment back in the driver's seat.

Why hasn't life expectancy been increasing in the United States? It's complicated. "The fact that the United States is far from a leader in longevity and that it continues to fall further behind nearly all other high-income countries indicates that there are societal factors operating to hold back life expectancy potential even if biological constraints are at play." pnas.org/doi/full/10.10…

@davidhogg111 Actually David this is why electing a reality TV show real estate swindler who is a compulsive liar, narcissistic bully as President indicates how foolish and selfish Americans are. Greatest con man ever but our inability to face this reality is the real problem.

@DavidAFrench This whole debate especially the argument that placing a school near a military base is essentially using children as human shields ignores the basic question of the legitimacy of this attack on Iran. This is NOT America being great.

We absolutely need to know if this was an American strike. It's looking increasingly like it was, and if so it will be one of the worst individual incidents of civilian deaths in a generation or more.
Malachy Browne@malachybrowne

Official statements placing U.S. forces in the area – along w/ analysis of social posts, videos, sat. images – suggest U.S. forces bombed a school in Minab, Iran during strikes targeting an IRGC base. Over 150 were killed, Iranian officials say. nytimes.com/2026/03/05/wor…

@JillFilipovic @DavidAFrench No surprise. Just another example of the many instances of doing exactly what you criticize your political opponents for doing, like weaponizing the DOJ, fake news and misinformation.

@smerconish It’s not about liking him. Stop making it about like or not liking him. It is about the balance of power between the three branches of our government. It is about how he has weaponized the DOJ and DHS against political opponents. It is about constitutional rights of due process

@campbellclaret @johnpavlovitz They have apparently not only infringed but rescinded the first amendment. In addition NBC has decided to behave like Pravda and prevent us from hearing the reality of what people think of our Vice President and America. Sad.

They really really don’t believe in free speech do they? Athletes are entitled to whatever views they like. Trump’s narcissism means he can only cope with sycophants and creeps. Most people prefer people like this - who have values and speak up for them when that is needed

🚨 JUST IN: Growing calls from Americans to send Team USA athletes home from the Winter Olympics in Italy if they disparage the United States on the world stage.

@DutchRojas Agree I am more than simply disappointed Serena is promoting GLP1s. This is our culture, health is found in a medication, a supplement, a shortcut to a long healthy life.

Four Field goals. Lame Super Bowl gets lamer. A national icon telling girls that great nutrition and training are not enough, you need Big Pharma. This is where we are. Go NFL.
