There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

The Republican war on health care is alive and well. Republicans have one goal in mind: rip away coverage for millions in order to provide tax breaks for their billionaire friends. #DontCutMyMedicaid

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

More than 10,000 federal employees who had yet to complete their probationary periods have been fired by the Trump administration, including those who work to protect American agriculture.

#momentofjoy. Don’t forget your self care during these challenging times. If our cup is empty, we can’t show up to help those in need and affect change. We must all take care of ourselves and each other. That’s my message of love today.

Excuse me, but we can’t live in fear, or fear of loss of financial gains because we now have an oligarch instead of a democracy. It’s so disheartening to see that NASA would do this. No doubt they caved to a lot of pressure and threats. But we, the people will not. www.instagram.com/p/DFx4vlwT2A...

Senator Bill Cassidy just voted to advance illness, disability, and death for the American people. Disgraceful abandonment of your obligations as a doctor and an elected official. The preventable deaths this man will cause are on your hands. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

After an all-day off-road mountain bike ride in SoCal, we stopped in town for some food. Everything was closed. Here’s why. I stand with the workers and the community. If not for them, there’d be no town. 💙

Finally, a break from the cold! Made it to the mountains, and as always, nature delivered. Icy, slushy, but worth every step. Grateful for my poles—less sure about my hiking shoes’ survival! #HeartTransplantStrong #SelfCareJourney #HealingHikes #GratefulHeart #AdventureAwaits

here's today's post: "incompetent imbecile sabotages California’s water supply" — millions of gallons gone, for a pointless photo-op. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter to keep getting the good stuff —

Not only was it retracted and Wakefield lost his license, but investigative reporting showed that he straight up lied about the people included in his study. “From the information you provided me on our son, who I was shocked to hear had been included in their published study,”

He can certainly string together more than 4 words in a row. A good watch for Americans because you won't see it on MSM

Americans across the country received harmful hate messages via text after the election. The communication industry has been trying to figure out how it happened.

A moment of joy—I won’t stay silent in the face of suffering, yet I know balance is essential. Tonight, the night sky was a gift—a reminder that beauty is everywhere. #BlueSky #NightSkyMagic #MomentsThatMatter #FindingBalance #Resilience #HopeInDarkness #hearttransplant #HCM #grateful #donatelife

A little bit of joy - my youngest kiddo placed today in her last Equestrian Conpetition of the season. We are so proud of her hard work and commitment. #equestrian #joy

Keep your eyes wide open. I know it’s tempting to look away, to stick our heads in the sand just to escape the outrage and exhaustion caused by this administration—or by what it emboldens its supporters to do. But let me be clear: Have a plan to resist. #Resist #StayAwake #ProtectTheVulnerable

Excellent NYT interview with the outgoing U.S. ambassador to Hungary. This is a key insight!

That didn’t take long 💔
