@MichaelAlbertMD I’ll stop you when your stating position is “brief clinical encounter”.

Michael Albert, MD@MichaelAlbertMD·
I’m sorry, but I disagree with this decision. We seem to operate under the assumption that physicians are responsible for fixing every aspect of society, which is unrealistic. First, we already have trained professionals in nutrition—dietitians. Yet we consistently underpay them and fail to provide adequate access to their services. While physicians receiving 40 hours of nutrition education isn’t inherently a bad idea, delivering the behavioral interventions required to meaningfully change diet often takes hours of patient engagement. In the current system, many physicians are fortunate if they can spend 5–10 minutes with a patient a few times per year. The problem is not that people are unaware they should eat more fruits and vegetables. The larger issue is that the food system itself heavily subsidizes and incentivizes highly processed foods. Structural changes to that system would likely have a far greater impact than physicians repeatedly telling patients to eat more fruits and vegetables. At some point, we need to acknowledge the limits of what can realistically be addressed within a brief clinical encounter. It’s all so exhausting.
Secretary Kennedy@SecKennedy

.@EDSecMcMahon and I announced that, starting this fall, 53 medical schools across 31 states will deliver at least 40 hours of nutrition education during undergraduate medical training. This landmark reform will transform medical education, equip future physicians to prevent and treat chronic disease, and advance @POTUS’s commitment to end the chronic disease epidemic.

@ColMoeDavis You are retarded, aren’t you? “From the 193rd…website”. You mean from the people that work for him? Might want to refresh on how that works.

Moe Davis (U.S. Air Force, Retired)
From the 193rd Special Operations Wing website: “Members should salute as the flag passes by. Former military members not in uniform may salute. However, civilians should not salute. As a sign of respect, civilians should instead remove any head gear and place it over their heart. In the absence of head gear, the customary gesture is to place the right hand over the heart.” First President to take the “dignity” out of a “dignified” transfer

@billybinion @jaketapper No, but there’s plenty of case law that demonstrates a legal gun carrier has increased responsibility to avoid conflict and submit to LEOs. That’s the piece everyone seems to be missing.

Once again: There is a pile of case law confirming that the right to carry a firearm does not evaporate when near law enforcement. It also does not evaporate at protests. The Second Amendment does not cease to apply when inconvenient.

Bessent: I'm sorry he is dead, but he did bring a semiautomatic weapon to what was supposed to be a peaceful protest. Karl: There's no evidence that he brandished the gun whatsoever Bessent: But he brought a gun! Karl: We do have a second amendment in this country.

$749,000,000,000 That could house every homeless person in America. Permanently. With change. Erase all medial debt in the USA. With change. Provide clean drinking water for the whole world. End global poverty. For years. Ensure every child worldwide has education.

@DC_Draino Wrong question-it always takes that long. The question is why has a population allowed themselves to become dependent on the government to stop violence?

American is crying, she is devastated and losing her home to a fire She called her insurance and just wanted to rebuild the exact same home, no changes She can’t, because the value of her home has gone up, her insurance will only cover what it was worth years ago Now she has to sell off the lot to try and pay off her remaining mortgage and her family will have nothing When getting homeowners insurance what they don’t tell you is you need to make sure your homeowners insurance has ‘100% replacement cost,’ or ‘guaranteed replacement cost.’ Insurance in America is a scam, they do everything possible to not pay out

A gunman tried to silence my wife in an extreme act of political violence. Now, Trump has called for my execution because he didn’t like what I had to say. Gabby and I know, when others try to silence you, you must keep speaking out — and that’s exactly what we’re going to do.

Pregnant women: Use Tylenol (paracetamol) when you need it. It’s fine to give it at the recommended dose to kids. No good reason to divide the MMR shot into 3 (more pain, more additives, more Dr visits). Combining with Chicken pox is 👍 Get Hep B at birth or early in life.

@DrPlantel Because the entire medical establishment has become hyper-focused on pharmaceutical intervention rather than taking a holistic health approach. The whole system is broken. So, no, there isn’t a [pharma] “cure” for cancer. We just need to prevent it in the first place.

No, doctors aren’t withholding the “cure to cancer.” We’d do anything to stop the devastation this disease causes. Anyone telling you otherwise is exploiting people at their most vulnerable and probably selling BS.

@DrCatharineY The fact that you couch this as a “win for vaccines” is precisely the problem with healthcare in the country.

Another win for vaccines: A new study finds that reactivation of the virus that causes shingles (VZV) is linked to higher dementia risk…and shingles vaccination cuts that risk by up to 35%. It suggests something extraordinary: dementia may have a modifiable viral trigger.
Eric Feigl-Ding@DrEricDing

🧠DEMENTIA PREVENTION—Almost everyone needs to go out now and get the shingles vaccine ASAP. Don’t wait until age 50 for standard eligibility—ask your doctor for singles vax. MULTIPLE large studies worldwide now show that shingles vaccine strongly prevents dementia onset. Do it.

CDC is not a Democratic or Republican agency. It's an American agency. One in three employees have been lost in recent months. This is dismantling of our health protections, not reform.

As of January 1, 2025, California's population hit 39.53 million, up 108,000 from 2024, marking the second straight year of gains after a brief 1% drop in 2020-2022. Natural increase (births over deaths) added over 114,000 people in 2024 alone, outpacing net migration losses in most counties. This bucks the "exodus" narrative and shows the Golden State's pull- tech hubs, diverse economy, and all. That said, growth isn't uniform: Riverside County surged 14.4%, while smaller spots like Alpine dipped 13.4%. What policies do you think drove this rebound most- immigration reforms, housing initiatives, or something else? And with projections showing steady 0.57% annual growth through 2025, how's the state prepping for infrastructure strains?
