Agreed, they are the real deal. They lift voices and stories of actual people. Nurse perspectives are often left out of national healthcare conversations, yet nurses are the largest and most trusted profession in Gallup polling. MTN has brought our stories to the surface!
I’m a nurse in Canada and I’m so proud of our US colleagues for taking a stand! It’s true, nurses are not typically thought of or consulted. I am watching this whole thing with RFK jr very, very closely. Stand tall Justin.
My sister is a nurse at a family practice, and she tells me that the doctor she loves very much, always asks her opinion about many things. Don't know if he is "teaching her" "testing her" or wants confirmation on his opinion and diagnosis. But one thing I do know, she says what she thinks and he often comments openly to everyone that she is right. [Actually he says he is just there to write the prescription.
Several of my good friends wife's are nurses - they are all intelligent, caring people and deserve a medal, especially what they went through during Covid with the threats and personal attacks from right wing nut cases! Go Nurses!
MTN is a gift from the universe. Part of my tax refund will be upgrading to founder.Trumptastrophy will be in full swing and the front line resistance fighters will need back up and re-supply.
I am a Physician certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine and Gastroenterology and a member of the American Medical Association and The American College of Gastroenterology and The American Gastroenterology Association and The Arizona Medical Association. I am quite dismayed that my Societies who purpose is to deliver and elevate the medical care of their patients have remained relatively silent regarding the possible appointment of Robert J. Kennedy Jr. as the governments Czar of American Medicine. Mr. Kennedy is devoid of any medical training and has demonstrated that he is on the absolute fringes of Medicine. He would set back American Medicine decades and endanger Americans for decades to come.
Make sure you let the societies you mentioned know that please. They have a responsibility to put their qualifications behind the importance of serious people doing such a serious appointment.
It is unfortunate that physician societies in general fail to assert themselves. Perhaps this is part of the reason why our healthcare has been turned over to big businesses? Wouldn't now be a good time to get involved since it would be better late than never? Or what will be the final break point if not the witch-doctor approach of RFK?
As an RN with a Masters in Public Health, I am terrified for the future with this next administration and the communities that will be destroyed by these unqualified and incompetent cabinet picks.
I am a CNA and a caregiver to my daughter who is 8 who has long haul covid and a weak immune system now my son 17 who has Autism and other issues! I am terrified of RFK Jr! As a single mom he could destroy my family! Thanks for this and signed! Stand with the nurses and everyone!
So sorry to hear about your daughter - so young! We need more research into the cause and treatment of long Covid. I also have a son on the spectrum...he is now 34 years old and is living independently with a great job as a programmer/analyst. It took about 10 years longer to get his BS in computer science, but he has grown to have impressive self awareness of his limitations - not to minimize the challenges he continues to face. And...he's the most transparent, honest, humanistic person I know. My one suggestion would be to support his strengths always, and never put limitations on his ability to learn and grow. I say this from the place that my siblings told me when he was younger that he would need to live with me for the rest of his life. I refused to put those shackles on him. Go forth courageously, and thank you for your compassionate work as a CNA.
Thank you Ben and MT. I am a RN and 68 years old, so I have knowledge of the efficacy of vaccines and the consequences of not taking them. I appreciate the link and have signed on.
Just signed. RFK Jr. is a sick and twisted individual. I like my vaccines and to suggest they are harmful and or causing autism is the most utterly ridiculous thing I’ve heard. We also have Dr. Oz, a whole cast of characters, put up to be in charge of Medicare.
As a nursing student I did a clinical with babies born to unvaccinated moms who contracted rubella during pregnancy. All were deaf, some blind and all developmentally delayed. Vaccines save lives and we need to fight to ensure mandates stay in place.
This article is just another reason.....to LOVE MTN and the Meidas Mighty! Subscribe if you can, help, tell others, get proactive, go Meidas!!

What a lovely way to work together. Win-win-win: your sister, the doctor and the patients!

I’m also a registered nurse and want to do more to oppose these charlatans like RFK Jr

Signed! Nurses are healthcare heroes. We need to protect our children and public health from anti-science anti-vaxxers like RFK.
Signed also. And agree with you Public Servant. Thanks Ben and the MidasTouchNetwork Team for bringing this to us.

Thank you Ben for doing this! We nurses need every platform we can get. You rock!

Ben, you have shown that you are a truly professional and empathetic journalist by responding to Justin's request for help within 30 minutes.
Thanks Justin. Keep fighting Evil.
Thank you
As a retired RN I am so very concerned about RFK jr.
Awesome to hear about this through MTN and to sign the petition.
Thank you MTN for sharing this very important message.
This is so wonderful to hear. Together we can fight against this madness. Thank you Meidas.
I fear for our healthcare system under another Trump catastrophe in office...
Does anybody remember Elon musk getting elected... anybody ??
Signed! Thanks for your great work, NFA and Meidas Mighty!
