I thought maybe it wasn’t true, it is. I googled it. guideline.gov
Are they being deleted because the guidelines support women’s health choices? #SaveTheGuidelines
Are they being deleted because Pharma companies want their own guidelines? #SaveTheGuidelines
Are they being deleted because they are pro- vaccine? #SaveTheGuidelines
Are they being deleted because they want political hacks to decide the standard of care for Medicaid recipients? #SaveTheGuidelines
Are they being deleted because they recognize PSTD as a serious health issue for veterans? #SaveTheGuidelines
Are they being deleted because Medicaid recipients can point to the guidelines for a standard of care? #SaveTheGuidelines
Are they being deleted to affect tort reform? Lawyers won’t have guidelines to suggest that your care was sub-standard. #SaveTheGuidelines
Are they being deleted to dissuade young people from becoming researchers? Who wants to spend their life working on scientific research to have the work deleted with a few keystrokes? #SaveTheGuidelines
Are they being deleted so your employers’ insurance company can deny your physician’s treatment recommendations without justification? #SaveTheGuidelines
Are they being deleted because the measly $1.2M was paid for with ACA fees? More Vindictive Games. #SaveTheGuidelines
1) Young people do not vote in Midterms. Old people do. And voter apathy it getting worse.
2) Stop what you are doing. Look at this chart. If your state has a registration deadline. REGISTER NOW!
3) The Republicans have been systematically redrawing districts to their advantage and in many states illegally. Now Trump is using the Kavanaugh fiasco to gin up his cult voters.
Kavanaugh Lies
•He never attended a gathering like *this*.
•People never said it “didn’t happen.” (they said they didn’t remember being at the gathering NOT a party)
•He tries to restrict the range of possible dates to weekends (July 1 is a weekday)
•He scoffs that he didn’t live near Ford’s country club (he lived closer to it than she did)
•Drinking forms a major part of all the allegations, and facts about his history with alcohol bear on the plausibility of all three...
1) So is this how it’s going to go down? Future convo:
Kid: So in 2018 the President who was under investigation for working with Russia to win an election got to appoint a judge who had sketchy finances, lied to Congress and attempted rape?
You: Yeah, pretty much.
2) Kid: That’s how Trump was able to avoid all of the corruption in his past? And able to go on to nullify the 2020 election even though he lost?
You: Yep, pretty much.
Kid: This is why women and girls who get pregnant have to travel to California to have an abortion?
You: Yep
3) Kid: That is why a girl in my class died because her family couldn’t afford to go to California for an abortion after she was raped by a rich kid from prep school?
You: Sadly, yes.
Kid: That’s when Trump made all of our allies mad and our soldiers died without their aid?
1) My father lied about his age to fight in WWII. His sister told me the story of how he saved a young Mexican girl from being gang raped. He was 15, they were older. He walked her home to safety. When I asked him about the story he said it was just the right thing to do.
2) He quit high school when he was 16 to work for his mother and his siblings. The home she died in, he built for her when he was 16, before he went off to war.
3) He was a City Councilman for his small town. He was on the volunteer fire department, would often jump out of bed in the middle of the night to fight a fire and work the next day without complaint.
1) I’ve concluded Trump does not care about the people he is leading. All he cares about is economic metrics;
2) the metrics the 1% donors are wedded to and the metrics that his rally attendees rally around. The DOW that affects only 15% has become the measure of ‘success’. Exaggerating that 4% GDP growth is a miracle is believed because the snake salesman says it is.
3) Meanwhile people will continue to die without insurance. Insurance companies are waiting for one of their own to officially withhold care from a customer by cancelling their insurance, once the customer gets too sick.
