My latest. Yesterday was White Christian Nationalist Day at the Kentucky General Assembly ... well, really, every day is ... but this was especially so.

The SAVE Act is not about protecting elections but rather, it's about creating barriers that weaken our democracy and silence voters! QUICK SIGNATURE: action.momsrising.org/sign/Stop-th... via @momsrising.org #StoptheSaveAct action.momsrising.org/sign/Stop-th...

MEUSER: You've got Trudeau saying how the president is making a dumb move. That's bad diplomacy. SANCHEZ: I'm not sure how it's good diplomacy to say that a neighboring country should be the 51st state and that you're gonna impose economic hardship to achieve that goal.

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency

PLEASE SHARE.

Indivisible is urging people to visit their senators' local offices between now and Thursday to demand that they use every tool—including denying a quorum and blocking unanimous consent—to fight the confirmation of Project 2025 architect Russell Vought for head of OMB docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Oh Canada! 🇨🇦

The Trump admin is playing political games with our public dollars to accommodate tax cuts for billionaires. We need our electeds to put families first. go.caringacross.org/a/care-not-c...

This bullshit trade war with Canada is a smokescreen for some nefarious fucking shit folks.

Thank you, Canada!

Exactly

When they talk about privatizing Veterans’ care and Medicare, they mean allowing companies to provide healthcare for a profit. But how do companies make those profits? By *denying* care to many who need it. Don’t get fooled by the “privatization” label. It means “for profit” and YOU are the cost.

As someone on SSDI I can't tell you how it hurts to listen to people speak about Social Security and Medicare but fail to mention the populations who subsist on these programs: Seniors: 77.8% Survivors: 11.2% People w/Disabilities: 11% It's very crucial in our messaging to ensure everyone is seen.

Remember when republicans were OUTRAGED that Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin was in the hospital for two days? Now they want to nominate a perpetually drunk Pete Hegseth?

GOP Sen. Kevin Cramer says if Hegseth agreed to stop drinking, he might support him. This reasoning is completely unhinged. If you have concerns about someone's drinking (OR THEM ASSAULTING WOMEN) they should NEVER be Defense Secretary. I think that's fair. Hegseth must withdraw.

RFK Jr. attacks "red state people" in recently unearthed footage: "Red state people are more likely to murder you, to impregnate your teenage daughter, to commit a violent crime against you..."

Rep. Jasmin Crockett is always 🔥

Nancy Mace spent the entire day ranting about a trans woman member of Congress, who hasn't assaulted a soul, using the same bathroom as her. Not a peep about the guy credibly accused of paying for sex with a minor. Disgusting hypocrisy.

I've been thinking about this poem by Langston Hughes recently and although it was published in 1931, it remains relevant as ever. #books #reading #booksky #poetry

Remember when being a woman was a pre-existing medical condition? Insurance companies could actually deny coverage for pregnancies. MAGA Republicans have promised to repeal the Affordable Care Act and leave every person in the US with a pre existing condition vulnerable again. We will stop them!

There is a fake account that is in no way affiliated with Speaker Pelosi pretending to be her. I reported it the other day and it’s still up. @repnancypelosi.bsky.social It would be great if you all could give me a hand in reporting it. ❤️

Dr Oz for Medicare/Medicaid Sevices. Your thoughts???

President-elect Donald Trump’s economic advisers and congressional Republicans have begun preliminary discussions about making significant changes to Medicaid, food stamps and other federal safety net programs to offset the enormous cost of extending Trump’s 2017 tax cuts next year.

Agriculture executives, farm industry officials and economists tell CNN that if Trump keeps his deportation promises, groceries will get more expensive — perhaps much more expensive.

Thank you, Mary. This is a street fight, not a boxing match. The goal is to win…period.

@petermorley.bsky.social Today is #WorldDiabetesDay I’m a 67 year old Type1 Diabetic of 41 years. I’m worried that the Trump administration will gut Medicare/Medicaid/Social Security/Affordable Care Act/Inflation Reduction Act which will effectively eliminate the elderly and disabled. I’m dead.
