I’m inspired by the words of @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, the winner of last night’s mayoral primary election in New York City. Our system may be under attack by Big Money and demagogues, but let his victory serve as a reminder that power belongs to the people.

I think that the outcome in the NY Mayoral race and the Wisconsin Supreme Court race both show that people power CAN beat the political money machine. That should give us all hope, and the motivation to work for the government we want.

There are 100k students in med school each year. Room and board is about 100k per year. For 10b a year, med school could be free. We would see a wholesale change in the profession, career paths and the cost of care. It would change the economics for every financial decision doctors

LA RESIDENT: “The cruelty is staggering. People are hiding in their homes from the federal government like Anne Frank. If you’re a Christian and you’re still supporting this you’ve lost your mind. You’re not gonna get a job because of what they’re doing. Absolute brutality.”

A federal court has blocked Louisiana’s law requiring schools to post Ten Commandments in classrooms. Louisiana ranks #46 in education. Maybe MAGAs should spend less time forcing religion into public schools and more time investing in actual education—like teaching separation of religion & state.

Given Trump’s decision to pardon 172 people who had pled guilty to assaulting police officers on Jan 6, Trump and the GOP have forever lost the right to claim to represent “law and order.” This should be obvious.

#ProudBlue #Voices4Victory Two of my daughters have decided not have to any more children. Both have had miscarriages & with the #GOPWarOnWomen the risk of another one or complications during pregnancy is too high. I’m sure they’re not alone. They won’t risk prison or even death for the GOP!

Andor nails it — Many of Nazism's earliest supporters ended up in the camps. The man who wrote 'First They Came For' was an anti-communist Minister who cheered the incarceration of socialists. The poem is a warning about the dangers of supporting authoritarianism that you think works for you.

ICE is now detaining high school students with no criminal records, who are here legally to seek asylum. But this isn’t just impacting immigrants. These officials show up hiding their identities, showing no IDs, offering no transparency, stealing ppl away. This is a safety issue for all of us.

Marjorie, I know the truth confuses you and facts ain’t your strong suit—so let me break it down real slow: George Floyd didn’t die from drugs. He died because Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for 9 minutes. That’s called murder.
