Pet peeve: patient develops respiratory failure severe enough to require ICU & nobody checks a CXR or CT scan.
POCUS is terrific, but it doesn't survey the whole thorax, or evaluate progression over time.
CXR is fast, inexpensive, & avoids missing things. Just check it ✅
Thomas Massie: “If the legislative branch always votes with the President, then we do have a king.
If the legislative branch always votes whichever way the wind is blowing, then we have mob rule.
But if the legislative branch, and the representatives and the senators that serve with it, always follow the constitution,
WE HAVE A REPUBLIC!”
One of the most profound effects Trump has had on Congress is that he convinced a giant portion of GOP voters that the establishment guys who fall in line are the heroes and the constitutional conservatives who challenge the system are the villains.
🚨do you understand what just happened..
Trump sued his own IRS for $10 billion over leaked tax returns.. then settled with his own DOJ.. and the settlement created a $1.776 billion taxpayer-funded fund to compensate his political allies
the president filed the lawsuit.. the president's DOJ settled it.. the president's allies collect the money.. and you're paying for it
the fund covers Jan 6th defendants.. Mar-a-Lago raid claims.. the Russia investigation.. anyone who says they were a victim of "lawfare" can file a claim and get a check
they named it the "Anti-Weaponization Fund".. and made the number $1.776 billion.. they even made the corruption patriotic
in 1974 Nixon resigned for using government agencies against political enemies.. in 2026 the government is cutting checks to political allies and calling it justice
Sec. Scott Bessent: "I want to encourage everyone out there watching today to change their withholding ... you will get an automatic real wage increase on a weekly or a monthly basis." 🙂

🚨 Massie just said what GOP leadership has been terrified to admit:
“The Speaker, the Attorney General, the FBI Director, the President, and the Vice President could’ve spared our party months of humiliation if they’d done the right thing four months ago.”
They knew.
They delayed.
They protected themselves.
Now the cover-up is collapsing in real time.
I am not worried for my physical safety, honestly. The truth is more nuanced. Big money tries to destroy a person's career & reputation. They did to @mtgreenee. In Washington, you rise by keeping your head down and not making enemies.
Massie & I are unafraid to challenge power.
DOJ redacted information necessary to identify who sent Epstein the “torture video email.”
@RepRoKhanna and I first discovered his name and released it Monday.
Today he resigns.
Massie after Bondi’s testimony:
“She didn’t answer anything. She came here ready to talk about the Dow Jones and the Nasdaq — which seems kind of crazy to me.”
When you’re asked about trafficking victims and redacted files… and you pivot to the stock market?
Reporter: The president called you a loser.
Republican Senator Thom Tillis: “I am thrilled about that. That makes me qualified to be homeland security secretary and senior adviser to the president.”
