Your School House Rock moment...🤔

John Fetterman has changed drastically, and I don't mean just his political views. It's a problem the Democratic party can't ignore. The 5 most shocking bombhells from The Intelligencer's report on Fetterman. www.mediaite.com/news/5-most-...

This is actually on the White House website. www.whitehouse.gov/government/ "The U.S. Constitution mandates that all states uphold a "republican form" of government, although the three-branch structure is not required." Think about that. He's setting the stage for ONE branch, executive only.

What Canadians must feel like when they think of the U.S.

FOR PA: UPDATE ON HB404, 535, 618, AND 755 These codify ACA protection into PA law, and are now in the Senate Banking & Insurance Committee. Write to every member of the committee, especially the Republicans, in support of these bills. Here's the link: www.palegis.us/.../commi......

The ultimate goal of gutting critically important government agencies is so when they become dysfunctional, the tangerine tyrant can point to them and say, “See? We need them to be privatized.” That way he and his cronies can make a few bucks more than their billions.

For PA: HB404, HB535, HB618 and HB755 have been committed to the House Appropriations Committee. You know what to do! Write to all members in support, esp. GOP who 100% voted against in Insurance Cmte. These bills enshrine ACA protections into state law. www.palegis.us/house/commit...

*rump's SS chief said he will effectively turn off the agency that manages the essential safety net program for seniors and the disabled, if DOGE can't access the non-anonymized sensitive personal information and data of hundreds of millions of Americans, based on a judge's order. Yikes!

We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at. A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth. HAIRCUTS. This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.

Gorgeous day today.

How a bill becomes law in PA. www.pacapitol.com/Resources/PD...

FOR PA: Yesterday HB755 was voted on. Bills must be voted on 3 times according the the PA constitution. This bill would enshrine in state law the ACA protections for insurance coverage for preventive screening tests, like mammograms. EVERY SINGLE REPUBLICAN VOTED AGAINST IT. You know what to do.

America is *so* stupid.

He is at it again. Elon has decided to drop $13 million into a state Supreme Court race. Why? Interestingly Wisconsin doesn't allow car manufacturers to own dealerships in the state and Tesla just sued them for it. Guess who will probably decide the case?

Important For PA: SB388 prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation, sexual identity, gender identity or expression and more. SB389 prohibits discrimination against LGBTQ+ individuals in the credit service industry. [email protected] (717) 787-4236 (610) 868-8667

One thing Trump didn't talk about last night: his plans to abandon American women’s right to abortion care in medical emergencies. I wonder why he wouldn't want anyone to know that.

Well said!

Spring is on the way!

Trudeau: I want to speak first directly to the American people… your government has chosen to do this to you. Your government has chosen to put American jobs at risk. They have chosen to raise costs for American consumers on everyday essential items…

Are we tired of winning yet?

I’ve been to Chanticleer Gardens many times, but never noticed this until now.

Friday, Feb 28 is economic blackout day. I am asking everyone in my contacts list to avoid all nonessential purchases in-person or online from midnight Thursday, tonight, through midnight Friday. Money is the only language MAGAts understand.

Waiting for nuts.

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.
