I know there are many issues with how to build a viable political party, but I don’t think I can continue to back a party that listens to and doesn’t kick out racists and/or abusers like Carville, Clinton, Emanuel, Cuomo, Hochul, Adams…

I saw guidance saying "mask up if you're somewhere where people don't have a choice about being there... pharmacies, hospitals, etc" I hate to break it, but... baristas, janitors, customer service reps, retail workers, &t... none of them have a choice about being at work either.

The House could vote next week on drastic cuts to Medicaid that would gut critical programs that protect the civil rights and dignity of millions of Americans — including people with disabilities. Contact your member of Congress: No cuts to Medicaid.

Segregation was never about “separate but equal”. It was about keeping Black people oppressed & denied resources, even life itself. This resegregation under Trump isn’t just about creating all-white spaces; it’s about pushing Black people & other minoritized groups out of society altogether…

Another way to put this: Musk and his twerps have exposed us to pandemics, broken science, stolen all your data, endangered the U.S. payments system, threatened air traffic control, and cut off HIV medication to 20m people in order to save ::checks notes:: 2/10th of a percent of the federal budget.

Black and white college students went to MISSISSIPPI in 1964 to register people to vote. They got shot at, bombed, beaten and killed. These pampered fucks need to take accountability and act.
