🚨 DONALD TRUMP’S STUPIDITY HAS KILLED SOMEONE: A 71 year old woman has died after being sent home from a USAID funded hospital. Pe Kha Lau, a refugee from Myanmar living in a displacement camp died four days after she was discharged from the healthcare facility.

Did you know? In 1968, 24 Black men in Pittsburgh revolutionized emergency medicine. The Freedom House Ambulance Service was established to provide emergency medical care to underserved Black neighborhoods—creating the world’s first paramedics.

I’m not at all surprised. 💙

Listening to the mother of former Capitol Police Officer Michael Fanone describing on @joy.msnbc.com how she has been harassed and menaced is making my chest so tight. If your police union hasn’t condemned this conduct if, as a Member of Congress, you’ve condoned these pardons, you are a disgrace.

Sergeant Gonell @sergeantaqgo.bsky.social sent me this picture. This is his call log. Each call is an automated Dept of "Justice" notification saying "The defendant you testified against is being released from the dept of corrections." Each defendant assaulted him.

This makes my blood boil in ways I cannot describe.

Been thinking about this cartoon. For no reason. Really. It's from 1889 -- during the Gilded Age.

Trump: January 6, 2021 was a "day of love." George Orwell/1984: "The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."

Be a Mister Rogers. Wear comfy shoes. Celebrate kindness. Sow affirmations. Save time for make-believe. Sing silly little songs. Testify before a senate subcommittee about the importance of quality public broadcasting. Feed fish. Love sweaters.
