Had a great convo with a OUD patient.
Me: “Hey, this street fentanyl is really dangerous and you’ve already had an OD. Do you have any interest in getting on Buprenorphine?”

@RepBonamici @SenJeffMerkley And doctors too right? You realize they capped physician loans at a level below the average cost of medical school.

I think this Congressman talking about committing a felony should get more attention…

Yesterday, I received an official mail ballot at my Washington apartment for a woman I’ve never heard of.

I’ve rented this place since I got elected OVER A YEAR AGO.

All anyone would need to do is fill it out, sign it, and send it back.

Democrats are stealing elections every day.

PASS THE SAVE AMERICA ACT!

Trump: “Normies can suck a fatty…”

MAGA: Yeah!!!!!

Reporter: The cheapest price for the game you’re going to is $8,000. Everyday Americans can’t afford these sporting events.

Trump: No, but they can watch it on television. It’s sort of semi-free to watch it on television. But that’s the way life goes…

@RepFine Trump voted by mail you imbecile.

@SenBillCassidy You could have stopped it. But you were too weak.

When a UFC fighter speaks more truth to power in 90 seconds in a respectful and articulate manner than 99% of public officials and politicians, you know we have a problem in this country.

[Neurosurgery @neurosurgery]

🚨 REPORT: 82% of physicians are now employed by hospitals or corporate entities. Nearly two-thirds of practices are no longer physician-owned.

This outcome should not surprise anyone.

For more than a decade, Medicare payment cuts, mounting administrative burden, growing insurer oligopolies, and policies that disadvantage independent practices have made this outcome entirely predictable.

If lawmakers want more competition, lower costs, and better access to care, preserving independent practice must be part of the conversation.

No single reform will reverse decades of consolidation. But policymakers can start by fixing Medicare, fixing prior authorization, expanding physician-owned hospitals, and strengthening antitrust enforcement.

@NancyMace Then seniors shouldn’t be allowed to drive on roads, call for help from fire or police. No freeloading. No welfare for seniors.

@GPAIndiana The Good Samaritan laws (exempting from liability) apply to health care workers in the air. Do they apply to lay bystanders involved in the physical take down of passengers if requested/commanded by a pilot? If not, they should.

@horvick NAVs have always voted proportional to the rest of their districts/precincts. They just vote less frequently than their counterparts who register for a party.

“Those are dangerous!”

HHS Secretary RFK Jr. sharing a wild video of himself grabbing two black racer snakes off Dr. Mehmet Oz’s patio while his wife Cheryl Hines repeatedly warns him to stop.

The snakes can be seen twisting around Kennedy’s hands and biting him multiple times while he tries to remove them from the property.
