In 2020 the World Health Organization called for immediate global action to reduce sepsis deaths. Three years later, hospitals in the US still don’t have protocols in place to treat asplenic patients at high risk for Overwhelming Post-Splenectomy Infection

I am angry tonight.
Because today ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car.
ICE makes this city less safe.
We want them out. Now.
🚨 INFLUENCER SHOWS WHAT GROCERIES COST IN GERMANY — AND AMERICANS ARE LOSING IT
A Los Angeles influencer walked into a grocery store in Germany and started filming the prices... and people back home can’t believe what they’re seeing.
12 eggs for €2.39
Pasta for 69¢
Milk for 85¢
Fresh bread for €1.19
And it wasn’t just food.
She finds a huge pack of toilet paper for €2.69 before admitting:
“I wish I could ship food home to the U.S.”
Meanwhile, Americans are walking out of grocery stores with a couple bags wondering how the hell they just spent $200.
The reactions online say it all:
“That toilet paper would be locked behind glass for $14.99 in America 💀”
“Every time Americans see prices in Europe we realize how badly we’re getting cooked”
Why the hell are groceries so much more expensive in America?
And any senator or representative who doesn’t vote to do so should be impeached as well for treason. And if there aren’t enough votes, we do what the founding fathers recommended and overthrow the whole government. Like and retweet if you agree.
It's stunning when you realize exactly how many things trump f*cked up in less than 2 years.
HILARIOUS when a song nails it perfectly.
THIS IS BRILLIANT!!!🔥🔥🔥
People keep saying Trump term II is the most corrupt administration ever, so I built a model to find out if it was true.
I took the UN's definition of corruption, turned it into eight criteria and 100 points, and scored the leaders history remembers for looting their countries: Marcos, Suharto, Mobutu, Abacha, Obiang, Putin.
Then I put every president since Eisenhower on the same scale, both parties, with every exoneration counted right alongside the convictions.
Nixon scored 41 and no other American President scored over a 25.
Trump's second term scored a 91, which ties him with Suharto and Mobutu and puts him above Marcos and Abacha.
So he is not only the most corrupt president in American history. At this pace he finishes his term level with the most corrupt rulers of the last hundred years.

BREAKING: Republican Rep. Thomas Massie has introduced articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over the Iran war.
Massie accuses Hegseth of defying Congress and continuing U.S. military operations against Iran without congressional authorization, arguing that he violated Congress’ constitutional war powers.
.@SpeakerJohnson Mike, you just stood on stage and lied to working families for 5 straight minutes.
You said Republicans inherited "record-high inflation."
They did not. Inflation was 3.0% when Trump returned, not the 9.1% peak from June 2022 that Johnson dishonestly pretends Biden handed him on Inauguration Day. It is now 3.4%.
You said Republicans gave us the "lowest violent crime rate in 126 years."
No. He took a historic drop in the murder rate and falsely called it the violent-crime rate. Violent crime had already fallen to 362.9 per 100,000 people in Biden's final year. The decline continued on the same trajectory. None of their policies have helped with that.
You said you delivered the "largest middle-class tax cut in history."
No. By GDP, their tax law is the sixth largest, not the largest. Almost all of it went to the top. And they helped pay for those tax cuts by cutting Medicaid and food assistance, while preserving more than $1 trillion in tax cuts for the wealthy that do not expire.
You said "no tax on tips," "no tax on overtime," and "no tax on Social Security."
Also false. Those are temporary, capped deductions through 2028, not the abolition of taxes he is selling you. The bigger tax cuts for the wealthy do not expire. Plus all that small cut wouldn't even cover the cost of gas increase for a month.
This was a bone thrown at working people, and he knows it.
You bragged about prescription-drug prices falling.
Biden's Medicare drug-negotiation law, generic competition, and biosimilars are major factors. And a price-index decline does not necessarily mean your out-of-pocket cost at the pharmacy went down. TrumpRx is basically a coupon site. Some drugs are cheaper through GoodRx.
You said they created more than a million private-sector jobs.
Jobs are still growing, but hiring has slowed dramatically: about 9,700 jobs per month last year, the weakest pace outside a recession since 2002. Biden's final two years averaged 166,000 jobs a month, much higher than now.
You says Democrats will "explode the debt."
That is a lie. The national debt has passed $40 trillion. Trump alone is responsible for roughly one-quarter of all debt added by U.S. presidents, with nothing to show working families except higher prices and broken promises.
Meanwhile, Republicans are handing out tax breaks, cutting healthcare and food help to cover part of the cost.
That is their entire playbook:
LIES
Take credit for stuff they did not create.
Hide who actually pays.
Call temporary deductions "historic relief."
Call cuts to healthcare and food "waste."
Blame immigrants.
Blame Democrats.
Then tell you not to believe your electric bill, grocery bill, rent, pharmacy bill, or empty bank account.
This ain't "common sense." It's a con man behind a podium thinking American people are too dum"b" to call him out.
Covid increases your risk of new health problems. One study found that if you've had Covid twice or more, your risk of new health problems increases 76%.
And you don't necessarily get just *one* of those health problems.
State of C0VID world in 2026!
A family member rapidly became ill last night and had to go to ER.
They gave IV fluids, blood tests, etc., but do you know what test they didn’t give? Covid!
We had to specifically ask for it. When we asked, they gave a little bit of pushback, and their reasoning was that they had not seen Covid in the ER in a long time!
If I had been there, my response would have been, well, if you don’t test for it, how do you know it’s not showing up in your ER!
@SenJonHusted A 30-year study published by the Center for Growth and Opportunity found these policies reduce fatal hit-and-run accidents, ensures these drivers pass traffic safety tests, and increases the rate of insured motorists without raising overall traffic fatalities.
Breaking News: A whistle-blower at the U.S. Postal Service said Trump officials were defying court orders with a “secretive, rushed” effort affecting voting by mail. https://t.co/ZBoklOtvrQ
OMFG!!
We already have constant FDA and USDA recalls for E. coli, Salmonella and Listeria, and Trump’s answer is to let farmers chop up their meat and sell it without inspection.
If this happens, DO NOT buy farm-processed meat!
This won’t make America healthy. It will make Americans sick.
The USDA has issues a recall of frozen buffalo chicken products at the highest risk level, indicating a reasonable chance of "serious adverse health consequences or death" after the products were sold without federal inspection.
