Medicare cuts. They're real. 4% per year x 10 years if the House bill passes the Senate unchanged. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

This is absolutely terrible news. With the shifting regulatory climate (i.e., antivax ratfuckery), Moderna has withdrawn their application for their eagerly anticipated COVID-flu combo vaccine. This vaccine offered better protection than getting each shot separately. h/t @merz.bsky.social

Adriana Smith’s body is being kept alive artificially, despite brain death, to be an incubator to a clump of cells-AGAINST her family’s wishes.

14 MILLION. That’s how many people Republicans admit their plan would rip healthcare away from. Share it. Shout it. Stop it.

The significance of this, of course, is that the administration claims it is deporting people to fight anti-Semitism but they are letting this bigoted turd in.

Honestly? The $400M plane from Qatar is quaint compared to his crypto scam, memecoin con, insider trading, and tariff shakedowns.

And if you think David Hogg is not talking specifically about "white" young men, you are hopelessly naïve.

H/T @eclecticbrotha1.bsky.social: David Hogg has officially lost me. He all but said, "white Boys should allowed to be racist and rapey/" He needs to go.

Fun Fact: The annual cost of PBS is less than the cost of a single military parade for a draft dodger’s birthday. Why does ANYONE buy into the lie that this administration has ANY interest in reducing spending? That's obviously not the goal and clearly not what they're doing. They're spending MORE!

Alcatraz was turned into a museum. Trump wants to turn it back into a symbol of fear. This is not about safety. It is about spectacle—mass incarceration as theater, deportation as legacy, and fear as governance. And the worst part? He means it.

We no longer monitor our milk for safety, and we’ve stopped feeding the starving children in Africa or medicating HIV positive folks who will die bc we cut them off mid treatment-all in the name of waste fraud & abuse-But 🟠’s having a multimillion dollar military parade for his birthday?

I know I've been off of here for a bit, but I really plan to be more consistent in my posting. Today is a good day to start, as on this date in 2016 I shot one of my favorite images of #Pittsburgh, of a lightning bolt that actually hit the river. I've never seen anything like it.

The White House wants the public to think it’s “righting the ship” at the Pentagon by changing the staff around "Leaky Pete" Hegseth. But one of those promoted is Sean Parnell, who dropped his Senate bid in Pennsylvania over allegations he choked his ex-wife and told her to get an abortion. 1/2 🧵

Instead of promoting healthy lifestyles, RFK Jr. wants to cut Medicare for unhealthy people. This blames victims, rather than helping them. We need better federal leadership! RFK Jr.: If you eat doughnuts or smoke, should society pay for your health care? wapo.st/42osf1U

A few weeks before the election, Kamala Harris announced a plan that wiped medical debt off credit reports. After a whole four years of Joe Biden trying to forgive every student loan he could. Because of the people who didn't vote for her, the loan payments are due and going on your credit report.

The same mass-media that hammered on email security for TWO YEARS SOLID (every freakin' day, page one) when it was Hillary, cannot even sustain a week's worth of coverage of a dozen various MASSIVE scandals (from Signal Chats to Human Trafficking legal immigrants, residents, and citizens) for Trump.

So anyways The German Nazis that led the party were in close cahoots with American white supremacist groups and personalities, their plans for dealing with “undesirables” incl. Jewish people drew direct comparisons to the tribal reservation system / Jim Crow laws, anyone telling you differently …

Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?" Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

Anyone debating or analyzing Kilmar Abrego Garcia's life or record is doing a grave disservice. He could be El Chapo. He could be Charles Manson. He could be the Dalai Lama. It doesn't matter. What has happened to him and others is clearly a violation of America's core laws and principles.

Hey, Trump voters!Remember when the convicted felon convinced you immigrants were stealing your jobs? Well, here’s a rare opportunity: $11/hour, 10-hour shifts, 7 days a week, picking blueberries under the blistering Louisiana sun. Might be a good time to look into a chiropractor. Just sayin’. 😁

Van Hollen showing a lot of bravery, heart and fight. Screw those politicians who were giving anonymous quotes to Axios and to Gavin Newsom for calling this a “distraction” You need to fight and if you can’t make the case that people shouldn’t just be disappeared get out of politics.

A source at Americorps tells me that in addition to the cuts to all the members in the field yesterday, “everyone” who works at the agency nationwide (around 700 people) has now been placed on administrative leave. With no prior notice to the union reps.
