New York needs more leaders ready to stand up in the face of this authoritarian regime.

What do marriage and political views have to do with healthcare? Absolutely nothing. But Trump’s new VA rules let doctors turn veterans away just for being unmarried or a Democrat.

No Kings Day was one of the largest days of protest in US history. From deep red small towns to our largest cities, millions of people turned out to make it clear that the American people will not bow to fascism. #NoKings

Maine USMC Vietnam veteran Jeff Olson (1969-72) opposes domestic deployment of Marines: “it never was our mission and it shouldn’t be now.” #nokings Ellsworth #maine

Got revaccinated for measles today at 50 years old because that’s the world we’re living in 🙄 (I had the MMR vaccine as a child but there’s been concerns about the one shot version of my era lasting for one’s whole life. Consulted with my doc and she agreed it was a good idea)

Well, well, well. The Acting FEMA Administrator said eliminating FEMA wasn’t in the best interest of the American people — and guess what?!?! They FIRED him. I guess that’s what happens when you stand up to your power-hungry “boss”.

Finished The Residence on Netflix in 3 sittings! 2 Sunday night, 4 last night, 2 tonight. So very good! Highly recommend 🥇

VOTEVETS LIVE!

Guilty pleasure from Aldi. Also available in salted caramel

Started watching The Residence on Netflix last night. A Shondaland production. Such good writing and camera work. The lead actress Uzo Aduba is quirky and engaging. Had a hard time stopping at 2 of 8 episodes!

Sunday night vibes
