BREAKING: President Trump vows to eradicate what he calls a "horrible thread of cancer" quietly moving through the nation, issuing a stark warning against the rise of communism in America.
"We have a country that's just the hottest. It just is so hot and I'm working really hard to make it even better. We're going to get rid of some of the flaws. We're going to make it even better."
"But the biggest thing we have to do is we have to stop this, this horrible thread of cancer that's permeating our country called communism."
"While spacewalking I realized something, I used to think I was scared of heights but now I know I was just scared of gravity" ― NASA astronaut Reid Wiseman
I'm a cardiologist. A woman loses her husband. Two days later she's on my cath lab table — chest pain, EKG changes, enzymes elevated. Everything says heart attack.
I thread the catheter. Her arteries are pristine.
Her heart didn't clog. It shattered. From grief.
Takotsubo — broken heart syndrome. Stress hormones stun the ventricle so severely it balloons and stops pumping. 90% of cases are women. Your heart can literally break. Not a metaphor. Physiology.
But this is just one blind spot in a system built for men's hearts.
Women get microvascular disease — plaque in vessels too small for angiograms to see. Heart attacks with "clean" arteries.
Women get SCAD — leading cause of heart attack under 50. Most doctors have never diagnosed one.
Women present with fatigue, jaw pain, nausea, back pain. Medicine called these "atypical" for decades. They're not atypical. They're female-typical.
Half of humanity is not a variant.
Heart disease kills more women than every cancer combined. Fewer than half know.
Three things every woman needs to hear:
Say these exact words to your doctor: "I am concerned this could be my heart." That sentence changes everything. Don't soften it.
If tests are "normal" but symptoms persist — demand CT angiography or cardiac MRI.
If you had preeclampsia — your cardiac surveillance starts now. Not at 65.
Your heart can break from grief, from stress, from a system that wasn't built to see you.
It can also heal. If someone finally looks.
Share this with every woman you love.
🚨 BREAKING:
China confronts Trump:
Trump: "We need $2 billion daily to reopen the Strait of Hormuz."
Chinese FM: "The Strait was open before the war. The root cause is your illegal operations against Iran; you created a global crisis from nothing."
As we get closer to Taylor and Travis's wedding, lets give a shout out to the real MVP Andrea Swift for making this all happen. she had a vision and she was determined to make it happen.
Now, would be a great moment to have in place a disaster relief organization to help the people of Venezuela. We once had one -- USAID -- but Trump destroyed it.
If the Postal Service moves forward with President Trump's plan to restrict mail ballot delivery, I'll pursue a congressional subpoena of the Postmaster General and lead efforts to remove him from office.
No administration should be able to use the Postal Service to make it harder for Americans to vote.
BREAKING: Iran strongly rejects US officials' claims that a direct communication line between Iran and the US over the Strait of Hormuz has been established, calling it "a complete lie" that "has not happened and will not happen," asserting that "the Strait of Hormuz is Iranian territory and has no connection with the United States," per Fars.
Iran also declares there is "absolutely no way to return the Strait of Hormuz to its pre-war status."
Mike Johnson: "If we were to lose the midterms, heaven forbid, these Democrats…will turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body and they will go after the president's family, the cabinet, his donors, and friends. Half of you in this room will be targeted. I run the protection program. I'll take care of you."
JUST IN: A bill to raise the federal minimum wage to $25/hour has been introduced in the Senate.
The federal minimum wage is still $7.25. It hasn’t changed since 2009.
For years, the debate was $15/hour. Now it's $25/hour. Shows you how much the cost of living has changed.
