A 60 Minutes probe into Epstein's banking, with Wyden already interviewed, vanished right after Sharyn Alfonsi got pushed out under Bari Weiss. Same editor who stalled the CECOT migrant story until Stephen Miller got a say. CBS keeps calling it timing. Sure looks like a pattern.

I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.

They’re all trying to rewrite history, but we’re all still around and our memory hasn’t been affected. In fact, I still remember that in 2020, they had to build a field hospital in the Javits convention center because NYC hospitals were overwhelmed.

RFK Jr. went on national TV and claimed that ICUs in New York City were empty during the height of the pandemic. That is simply untrue.
I'm a New York City physician who worked throughout the pandemic. I work at a large hospital with eight ICUs, and despite that, we still had to convert cath labs, operating rooms, emergency department space, and step-down units into ICUs just to keep up with the surge. We had two refrigerated morgue trucks parked outside our hospital. No amount of COVID revisionist history will alter that fact.

This New York Times article, which ran a week before Christmas last year, didn’t get the attention it deserved. It detailed Trump and Epstein's predatory behavior toward women – “a game of ego and dominance” in which “female bodies were currency.” Here’s a gift link and a thread. 1/6🧵

A Washington Post analysis earlier this month found the Reflecting Pool errors were likely due to contractor errors. Turns out the Trump administration had documents that privately agreed, even as they publicly blamed vandals and touted arrests.

Ronald Reagan ignored the AIDS crisis—and his “dear friend” from Hollywood, Rock Hudson, who asked for help. Dr. Fauci jumped in and helped. Guess which guy the homophobic ghouls in the Republican Party revere today.

Trump is killing the subsidy that kept Medicare drug premiums stable for MILLIONS of American seniors. This means most Medicare patients — many of whom rely on fixed income from Social Security — will be paying more every month for the medication they need. Seniors deserve better.

Trump announced yesterday he will repurpose huge chunks of federal lands to host AI data centers. This massive giveaway to Big Tech comes despite surging public opposition to data centers— including among Trump's own voters.

GM CEO Mary Barra is introducing Trump at his rally. Something to keep in mind if you're in the market for a vehicle anytime soon.
