#ICYMI: Disclosure forms show that U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi sold between $1 million and $5 million worth of shares on April 2. That day, after the market closed, Trump’s “Liberation Day” press conference sent the market tumbling. 📽️: @josesepulveda.bsky.social

Israel's plan to permanently remove international humanitarian organizations from Gaza and instate a joint U.S. scheme instead would only supply at most 60% of the population with minimum rations, meaning the current mass starvation would still unfold.

KOSA is being reintroduced today. It's always been a dangerous censorship bill. But in this environment, with Trump weaponizing every aspect of the Federal government to suppress speech he doesn't like, KOSA is a catastrophic attack on human rights. We have to stop it. StopKOSA.com

Every Republican just voted against my amendment to block tax cuts for people who make over $100 million. $100 million - ridiculously rich people, .002% of US households. Republicans’ bill showers them with billions in tax cuts. Every Republican voted to keep it that way.

RESULT: Omaha's Republican Mayor Jean Stothert just lost to her Democratic challenger John Ewing. Stothert, who was running for a fourth term, resorted to anti-trans ads and messaging around who uses bathrooms in the final stretch of the campaign. Ewing will be Omaha's first Black mayor.

Wouldn’t it be great if instead of fighting Medicaid cuts, the Dems fought for Universal Healthcare? Stop the cuts (obviously) but go further. Universal healthcare would make the biggest difference in the health of the nation. Not eliminating food dye. Not “healthy diet”. Give people healthcare

People are being fired for wearing a mask to work. This is horrible and against public health. We need to pass laws that explicitly protect the right to mask.

submitted 4 days ago • 132 comments

Masking should be mandatory in all healthcare settings. Hospitals and doctor’s offices are where most sick people congregate. It’s also the most likely place for more high risk people to be. You shouldn’t have to risk getting sicker or more disabled while trying to get treatment.

Just a friendly reminder that our current Covid vaccines do not meaningfully prevent infection or transmission of Covid. Misleading the public about this fact led to massive distrust about vaccines and record vaccine hesitancy. It's SO crucial to make ppl aware of this fact to fight vax hesitancy
