So….the National Health Institute will no longer fund any initiatives with the word women in them. Or black or disability. Just white men. Like always. Make American just like it always was again. source: KPBS

Speak up. Loud and clear. They are seeing what they can get away with. Don’t give them an inch.

Tell your senators what you think of how things are going. Do not let Trump and Musk continue their unchecked power stomp. Fight every step of the way.

Do not obey in advance. Make them fight for every damned inch. Relish DEI Put your preferred pronouns on your bio. Be cognizant of & nice to immigrants. Give money to Planned Parenthood. Call your senators/ house members often. Check your sources. Boycott. Resist & resist & resist.

Both Biden and Trump need a civics lesson. Biden saying that the Equal Rights Amendment is the law of the land does not make it so and Trump signing executive orders to end birthright citizenship doesn’t change it either. There’s a process to changing the constitution and it isn’t just saying it.

I find it sad that Biden announced the ERA was the law of the land. It’s not. It has not been added to the Constitution and implying the matter is settled is ridiculous. A little education on this subject could go a long way in ending the persistent 100+ years run around on this topic.

I think a lot about this quote from Anaïs Nin’s diary from 1939-1944: “America is in even greater danger because of its cult of toughness, its hatred of sensitivity, and someday it may have to pay a price for this, because atrophy of feeling creates criminals”.

Starting a phony transgender bathroom debate and hiding behind the guise of “protecting women” to distract from your attempts to push through the confirmations of alleged rapists, sex traffickers, and fraudsters at the highest levels of government is peak Republican Party.
