Geriatrician. Retirement $$ >> protect democracy and Geri Ed to those in Med deserts. Living on a trimaran. A veces Valencia. Fabulous over 50- all things life, health, fighting financial elder abuse. π¦ I need a good πβ¦ ideas?

Motorized on streets.
And a portfolio of side deals with Arab states.
And your work is so valuable. So the geriatrician who loves her work, but realizes itβs not the most glamorous.
Let's be clear: banning mifepristone = a national abortion ban.
Mifepristone has been safe, effective and FDA-approved for 20 years.
Extremists wonβt stop until abortion is banned everywhere. I'll keep fighting to pass my Womenβs Health Protection Act to restore the right to abortion nationwide.
We all need to get out and vote in November to end this madness.
A jury will now consider whether the Prairieland Nine who protested outside an ICE jail are guilty of antifascist "terrorism."
I profiled the case & break some news:
Ex-AG Bill Barr, who railed against antifa back in 2020, privately met with the judge mid-trial.

Itβs not hard to imagine a world in which the 2028 election hinges instead on the future of American AI regulation. Itβs hard to overstate, too, just how wide open the political terrain is.
Trying to use less plastic?
Big Oil and the plastics industry are spending billions to make sure everyone else uses more.
βI think what stood out most is the deliberateness and intentionality over the years of pushing plastic into our lives,β said @bethgardiner.bsky.social. βIt was such a shock."
Errors on your credit report can raise your interest rates, block you from renting, or cost you a job.
The CFPB once forced credit bureaus to fix those mistakes. Now, under this administration, oversight is collapsing and the agency is handling fewer disputes even as complaints keep piling up.

Today I get to share some good news.
Carmen Mejia was recently exonerated after spending 20 years in prison for a crime she did not commit.
Because of her conviction, she might have been deported.
But thanks to people speaking up, Carmen is now free.
Keep speaking up.
π Hmmm. I will say that pvtin is a horrible president, but a really good KGB agent.
Whack a mole?
Draw dropping to hear that from other people at a business conference I was at November 4, 2024.
We already know that a plant-based diet and at least 30 minutes of exercise a day and avoid avoiding alcohol and cigarettes, decreases the risk of heart attack, stroke, and dementia by over 40%.
It just takes changing oneβs habits. Which no one wants to do theyβd rather have a pill or an injection.
OK. As a geriatrician who takes care of a lot of people with dementia and whose mother has had frontal dementia, they would be lovely to have a magic pill to reverse Alzheimerβs.
However, itβs more useful to look at it as scarring the way emphysema is to the lungs or even long Covid isβ¦1/
This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics. Itβs the root of all evil in Washington.
Thank you patriot.
At least some Americans are benefiting from Trumpβs Iran War.
Wut?
No. Where would kids think killing classmates would bring a killer back to life?
So sorry to hear that.
Congress ordered the Kennedy Center to be a living memorial
Trump wants to shut it down & demolish it anyway
So we amended our lawsuit & sought emergency court relief to stop the destruction of national cultural institution

There have been some very bad developments today.
January 2021 was the deadliest month of the pandemic. 3000 Americans died daily, 95,000 in total.
And Prasad was *mocking* people for avoiding COVID.
Shame on anyone who treated him as a good faith actor or serious thinker.
Letβs be honest about his record.
Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"
I charged my EV last night (from 20 percent to 100 percent) and it cost me about $17.
Beyond the no gas, the car just rides so beautifully. Got it in July and cannot imagine ever going back to gas car.
Obama has the crowd at Jesse Jackson's eulogy hanging on his every word
So besides saving the world climate, itβs not held hostage to demagogues and tinder box politics. π€
Itβs just harder to join your page then some other pages. Iβm not sure how that can be fixed. Iβll try again.
