Right now, Republicans in Congress are trying to push through a bill that would put millions of Americans at risk of losing their health care. They want to cut federal funding for Medicaid, take away tax credits that help more people afford coverage, and raise costs for working class families.

Elon Musk, DOGE and Secretary Collins are driving many of our very best critical employees out of the VA. The disastrous effect on our Veterans can't be overstated. To them, Veterans are just numbers on a spreadsheet, not human beings.

Some of the CDC's main channels for communicating urgent health information to the public have gone silent.

Downtown #BuenosAires has some tremendous trees... I was so impressed with how green it was. It's reminiscent of an old European city but in Latin America. #ThickTrunkTuesday #sbgphotography #photography #trees #monochrome #BW #BNW

#ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited #MomSky Good morning, friends! Happy Mother’s Day to all moms. Take a break today and enjoy your day!

I still love my country USA. I'm saddened and horrified by the hatred and brutality happening in our government both national and local. I'm an american. I have faith that we will overcome what is currently happening. I'm also a proud mom of my children and daughter to the best mom on the planet ♥️

Good flowers out

Some beautiful old books. They should bring back this kind of binding. With everything accessible online, a big reason to buy a physical copy is the aesthetics.

Happy Mother’s Day & this! ⬇️⬇️

Eliminating checks and balances and anyone with a case against Trump or Elon!!

AOC: If anyone is breaking the law in this situation, it’s not members of Congress — it’s DHS. It’s people like Tom Homan and Secretary Kristi Noem. You lay a finger on Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman or any of the Representatives that were there… we’re going to have a problem.

If you live in an area where you see a lot of immigrants. Protect them. Use your voice! Stand up, and Speak out for your neighbors!! Keep them safe!! #OnYourSide #SheShed

Who agrees with AOC....

"The crowd chants 'Don’t take the mother!' over and over again as the daughter keeps trying to get back on the hood of the car. More Worcester cops arrive, all helping the ICE agents carry out their rotten senseless work." www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

“It's hypocrisy to call yourself a Christian and chase away a refugee or someone seeking help, someone who is hungry or thirsty, toss out someone who is in need of my help. If I say I am Christian, but do these things, I'm a hypocrite." -Pope Francis

Kristi Noem had her handbag stolen at a restaurant last night. Among the items lost was ~$3,000 in cash just like you and I carry. Camera footage at the restaurant showed a white male wearing a medical mask steal her bag. I mention this before she blames it on illegals.
