Gov. Newsom didn't request the National Guard be deployed to CA following peaceful demonstrations. Trump sent them anyway. It's the first time in 60 years a president has made that choice. Trump's goal isn't to keep Californians safe. His goal is to cause chaos, because chaos is good for Trump.

Deaths from heart disease down 75%, that’s NIH. Deaths from stroke down 75%, that’s NIH. HIV/AIDS no longer a death sentence, that’s NIH. 99% of FDA approved drugs in the last decade, that’s NIH. Please show this video to anyone who doesn’t understand why the NIH is so important.

Have folks read the latest @johnpavlovitz.bsky.social Substack missive? “Do Americans Have What it Takes to Stop Fascism?” - I guess we are about to find out… open.substack.com/pub/johnpavl...

I will never forget! He played golf while me & my fellow healthcare workers were zipping up dead Covid patients in body bags.

YES! 👍 We ABSOLUTELY AGREE with Caroline Kennedy! Who’s with us?

Block & roll, baby…

😂😂😂 I was just reviewing these for my post-election community gathering tomorrow

Trying to remember the anecdote about Serbian protestors telling their oppressors while being beaten “there is still time to join our movement” - can anyone help me out with source? I’ve listened to too many political podcasts/read too many articles 😂😂😂🫠😵‍💫

Can we do a Starter Pack for actual MDs and scientists who oppose RFK Jr and “MAHA”? Who’s in? #starterpack #makeamericasmartagain #sciencematters #neverRFK

For the antisemites in the back, saying “Jews are OK, it’s Zionists who are bad” is the same as saying “Women are OK, it’s Feminists who are bad” or “Black people are OK, it’s BLM people who are bad” or “Gay people are OK, it’s Trans people who are bad.” You don’t get a pass.

That map is so excruciating. Fucking uneducated white people…

I wrote about the other night and how Trump once claimed Democrats would riot if they ever lost. As it turns out, one party respects democracy and the other does not. Americans rewarded the latter. www.salon.com/2024/11/07/d...

Musk has been identified by X's Grok as a major spreader of misinformation, particularly about political events, COVID-19, & conspiracy theories. The AI noted that his posts promote misinformation & that his interactions with controversial figures have reinforced this reputation tinyurl.com/Elongrok

Yes. Suggestions?

🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮

I door-knocked for Janelle Bynum!!!! 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💙💙💙💙🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 #oregonstrong #votesaveamerica

Makes total and complete sense.

Democrats keep being punished for not cheating

Ohhhhhh, this is rich coming from the party of Make America Hate Again 😵‍💫

Just started watching “The Umbrella Academy” and it feels pretty topical. Apocalyptopical. 🫠 #blueskyTV #dystopia

Girl, same!

This is not a mandate.

Seems like if nominees for Attorney General and Director of National Intelligence can't withstand an FBI background check, that's a red flag

A twice impeached, convicted felon, business fraud, racist, rapist, traitor who bragged about sexual assault is currently rewarding the worst people on the planet with extremely powerful positions of incredible consequence… because eggs were too expensive.
