Get your measles vaccine re-upped if you were born before 1958 and vaccinated before 1968. Your immunity may not be as covered as you think to measles. At this time, it's affecting 5 and under, but don't be an ass and spread it to your grandkids. Protect them and yourself!

Feeling frozen in worry is not a normal thing! We are all going thru this right now! Call your representatives ASAP! They are our voice! Yes, even the Republicans should be worried about this administration. He's gutting Medicaid, and over 72 million Americans depend on this!!!!

I will never understand this static that 47 sends all over. I know it's just noise to cover the destruction in the back but wtf? This sh*t better be taught in school truthfully.

After that plane literally flipped upside down after smashing into the runway and 100% of people survived, I hope every person who ever said “what’s even the point of seatbelts on a plane” feels like a real doof.

I'm literally reading each HHS page as I go, and the font and the writing seem different. Please tell me if someone else is picking this up, too. I was looking at the FY 2025 Annual Performance Plan and Report. It wasn't available for a while, and now it's up again.

I don't know why, but a few of the CMS pages are back up, and some of the writing is giving me chat gpt style of writing. I don't like this. 😞 it's one thing to use Ai for an outline of a paper for school, but it should not be used for government documents. Let alone for entire paragraphs.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

CMS WEBSITES are not working properly!!!!!!! Red flags!!!!!!!! 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩we are in danger!

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Going on zillow is my kind of window shopping. Never gonna get it, but it's nice to see.

That halftime show was on repeat in our household! Perfect in every way.

Paul Martin, the inspector general for the USAID, has been fired after resisting the administration. Just a day ago, his office released a report warning that staff reductions and spending freezes put hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars at risk of misuse and waste. This is the way.

Ok, so let's fucking go! We need as many to donate or sign up to flip 2 seats in florida to stall legislation from this messed up admin. Here's a link to an org. that is partnering w/ both candidates to get people on the ground to register for voting blue. ANYTHING HELPS! www.nationalgroundgame.com

WHAT THE HELL! Archived reports for FY 2024, FY 2023 and so on for Annual Performance Plan and Report - Lower-Priority Program Activities are all taken down from the HHS website! HOW THE HELL am I supposed to finish a report for my class on this if I can't even access this information! Bullshit!

F*CK COCA COLA for what they did to those immigrants by calling ICE. Boycott these MFrs when they show who they are! Target, Chick-fil-A, Home Depot, to name a few & now CocoCola too. I know WalMart is harder if you are in a food desert like I am, but limit your purchases. Check out Costco instead.

cms.gov also has a feedback pop up too. Let it me known to the agency that their data is vital and should not be in the hands of a billionaire who was never voted into any position. Make your voice heard on every site that the government wants feedback on!!!

HHS website has feedback pop up. Fill it out! To keep ELON's hands off defunding programs! He's fucking w/ our data & funding. Take 5 min. to fill out feedback with comments about this administration. Select other, fill it out, & in comment section say what's on your mind. www.hhs.gov

THIS RIGHT HERE‼️

✅ Free school meals
✅ Paid leave
✅ Nation-leading Child Tax Credit
✅ Historic housing investments   We’re lowering costs for middle class families, which is why we were just ranked the second-best state to raise a family.

It is our honor to serve you. America, you broke through— the media is finally picking up on what’s happening. We love you!! 🦬 💚 🇺🇸

Entire house was down with the flu this weekend. I swear this felt almost worse than Covid. Dehydration and passing out from orthostatic hypotension is not fun while having the flu. Stock up on gatorade, zinc, and tissues. Use sanitizer on everything. And don't send your kids to school still sick!

Everyone, start masking up! The flu is spreading throughout Texas. 🤧

IT'S the start of Black History Month. Let's learn about the leaders who helped all of us gain civil rights by standing up to injustice. Each step forward by these brave souls is what carved the pathway for our civil liberties. www.facinghistory.org/ideas-week/9....

Well said, Pete Buttigieg

He's not blaming DEI, he's blaming women and non white people.

Women deserve to know the TRUTH about the impact of Texas' total abortion ban. Today, I along with Rep. Gerry Connolly, Rep. Summer Lee, and Rep. Ayanna Pressley sent ANOTHER letter calling on Texas to explain why it won't release maternal mortality data from the past 2 years after Dobbs.

Breaking News: Staffing at Reagan National Airport’s control tower was “not normal” during the deadly plane crash in Washington, an internal FAA report said.

Donald Trump is an incredibly incompetent leader, a liar and a vile racist who lacks integrity. His press conference was full of egregious lies and embarrassing statements. Blaming Pete, Biden and DEI for his negligence doesn’t change the truth. This is on Trump & his unqualified administration.

He is an evil person! This is ridiculous.

Dude. I'm Pissed. youtube.com/shorts/zBYoY...

No se hablar bien perfecto el español pero se que tenemos que resistir y informarnos de las leyes. No te dejes llevar por lo que está viral en la Internet. Solo prepárate porque el circo apenas a llegado a la Casa Blanco. Y apenas es una semana.

We can't walk away from what's to come, so we need to brace ourselves cuz the circus is just getting started with the 🤡 in the White House. These are your rights!

You know that's actually a pretty good idea. The only problem is these dems are so outdated at times they will say it's too crass. But it fits the present moment. Idk. We'll see what they come up with come midterms.

He's a threat to everyone! How could they be okay with the chaos he's creating already, and it's only week one?

Heads up! The @aclu.org Immigrant Rights Project has an EXCELLENT online resource available in multiple languages to walk immigrants or advocates through various scenarios of encounters with immigration officials or police. It includes contact #s for local ACLU offices. www.aclu.org/know-your-ri...

If only people had read what's in project 2025.... it's almost like a play by play of what's to come. Correction not almost... it is! Buckle up Buttercup, this is going to be a sh*tshow from start to hopefully impeachment and the f*cker gets kicked out.

ICE is reportedly in Mankato, MN, as of yesterday. Be safe!

My bluesky is acting so glitchy. 🙄

So what's new today? Anything exciting? Kittens? Oh, and Happy MLK day! I hope your organization gave you today off.

Martin Luther King, Jr. fought to end our nation's deliberate neglect and abuse of Black Americans. He was relentlessly targeted by our government for his views and pursuit of equality. At this pivotal moment, we honor his legacy by fighting injustice in all its forms, with everything we've got.
