If @CaseyMeansMD is confirmed by the Senate as US Surgeon General, despite being so grotesquely underqualified that she NEVER EVEN FINISHED MEDICAL TRAINING, it would make a complete and utter mockery of the confirmation process and render it entirely pointless
As today’s confirmation hearing for Surgeon General unfolds, one principle should guide the committee’s deliberations: Qualifications matter - or they don’t. 🤷🏽♂️
The Surgeon General MUST have the training, experience, and credibility to lead in a public health crisis. I laid out why that standard is essential here:

Congratulations to the @ACSorganic Industrial Early and Mid-Career Investigator Awardees! This year, we were able to partner with @AcsMedi and @ACS_ANYL to recognize even more outstanding scientists. Looking forward to hearing everyone’s award talks next month in Washington, DC!
After not posting for a while, I figured five simultaneous fireworks displays around lower Manhattan was a good start. Perk of living a couple blocks from the Hudson :)

The President of the United States just called for the arrest of a sitting Governor.
This is a day I hoped I would never see in America.
I don’t care if you’re a Democrat or a Republican this is a line we cannot cross as a nation — this is an unmistakable step toward authoritarianism.
