I'm a medical doctor, but I had to leave the system to tell the truth.

Most of what you’re told about your health is incomplete or completely wrong.

You’re stuck in a system that profits from your symptoms, not your healing.

In my Substack, I write the truth I wasn’t allowed to say inside the system.

If you're exhausted, unwell, and unheard, say hi! 🙌

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾‍♀️.

Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

Heather, thanks for your very cogent comments about Biden's part in the debate and the way the. Trump maneuvers may have been a cause. Makes me think that Biden was set up by the MAGA squad who learned about the "Gip Gallop" trick.

Trump did not debate- He staged a rally, with Biden as a prop-

CNN never pressed him to answer the actual questions- They allowed his free-for-all-

Robin, In my view, if we persist solely in blaming the press, no matter how valid, we are failing our candidate with concrete means to evaluate missed opportunities. I elaborate on this point in my comment, which is part of this thread.

Barbara When I saw President Biden walk out unsteady, looking like a tired old man, for me this felt like a gut punch. As he looked askance and spoke with a flatness that was in sharp contrast to State-of-the-Union Joe, my wife and I were appalled.

Trump was at top decibel with his blatant lies and below the belt attacks. But Biden knew who and what Trump was.

For the moment, I have difficulty in identifying how best Trump can be defeated in November. President Biden’s age is now on the front bur…

Biden is a morning person, trump is a night person. At 80 years, that makes a big difference even in the healthy and sharp. Next debate 7 a.m.!!

The fact is that power is very intoxicating. Witness Ginsburg and Feinstein. Biden should step down now and let a younger person step up. Biden's age along with the prospect that he might not finish his term so that Kamala Harris could become POTUS are two negative factors for many. We're in a tight spot. Though Biden has done a great job, this is a new ball game and one that we absolutely must win. Biden needs to recognize this, that he is in fact a liability that has to be overcome.

Step down in favor of whom? Why can none of you armchair pundits come up with both (1) a name, and (2) a persuasive case for why that individual can build up the name recognition to win in barely four months. IMO VP Harris is qualified to be president, but racism and sexism are at least as powerful in the electorate as ageism, and if you have any imagination at all you can probably guess what the GOP and Dark Money attack ads will look like.

Gavin Newsom, Gov. of Calif., for one. He's charismatic and smart with executive experience. This election should be a walk-in-the-park for Democrats, but it isn't because of Biden's age and apparent fragility.

Just no! There is a superb television pundit--last name Sullivan, I think--who made a superb case for why switching horses at this point in the race would be really stupid, among other things because they'd have to start from zero on fundraising.

If you would read Simon Rosenberg, you'll find out that Biden has lost zero ground in polling, he's doing fine, and in response to the debate fiasco, many of us are giving money. I'm not wealthy, and until about a month ago I had…
