Could you imagine if the head of the United States healthcare system didn’t believe that HIV caused AIDS? …And that instead they believed that AIDS is caused by recreational drugs (“poppers”) used by gay people? Oh wait…🥴

AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care? There’s nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.

Anyone else find it strange that a man with a 14-year heroin addiction is railing against Narcan—the lifesaving drug that helped drive a sharp drop in overdose deaths after a federal distribution program? No one said Narcan cures addiction. It prevents funerals. That’s the point. The facts 👇🏾

Our neighbor to the North is lead by a brilliant economist, who is tough, but fair and decent. Our neighbor to the South is lead by a brilliant engineer, who is tough, but fair and decent. We are run by a total ignoramus who is flawed in every way a human being can be & is destroying our country.

Donald Trump is back to attacking me today because the economy has been in a tailspin under his economic mismanagement. And so have his poll numbers. And the last thing he wants — is people holding him accountable. Attack me as you much as you like, Mr. President, I’m not backing down.

Although we're going through the worst of times politically in our trans community here in the US, I am saddened to know that the UK has chosen to follow suit. The fear of trans people living their truth & having the courage to do so, seems to bring so much anger & hate in so many. LET US LIVE!

We’re in a constitutional crisis, the markets are tanking, unemployment is on the rise, his tariff extortions are a disaster, a nasty recession looms on the horizon, and he’s polling lower than salmonella… …so naturally, he thinks it’s time to glam up Columbus Day.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 43 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.
