As I sat on Opa’s lap, smelling his “cologne” which was a mix of old wool & cigar smoke, I listened to the changes in his tone & rhythm. I didn’t understand the language of my ancestors, but I could feel it. My cousin translated for me. “Always fight the Nazis. No matter the cost.” And here I am

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

Without due process, this could be you. It could be me. It could be any or all of us. It doesn’t matter who you voted for. Or the color of your skin. You must understand what is truly at stake here. All tyranny needs to thrive is for people of good conscience to remain silent.

Start funding Democrats on the ground at the state and county level. If anyone can get through to their neighbors, it's the people already doing the work on the ground.

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

It's simple. Everyone in the US enjoys the protections of the Constitution - even visitors. So if someone commits a crime here, you give them due process here. You charge them here, try them here, and sentence them here. You don't deport them to an offshore torture prison.

Breaking: RFK Jr. has forced out PETER MARKS, the nation’s top vaccine regulator. In his resignation letter, obtained by the Post, Marks said he was willing to work with RFK Jr on his vaccine concerns — but said Kennedy wishes “subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.”

Senate Republicans voted Thursday to overturn a $5 cap on bank overdraft fees, leaving working class people vulnerable to exploitation from financial institutions. Please tell everyone you know, MAGA included, that REPUBLICANS did this. They don't work for you. newrepublic.com/post/193279/...

I want you to understand this is happening in our name and we know most of these men committed no crimes. One is a professional soccer player who was tortured in Venezuela and was working through asylum in the U.S. ICE shipped him for his Real Madrid tattoo and a picture throwing rock & roll horns.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

Please take a few minutes to read this article… DO NOT become complacent! Keep putting pressure on your senators & representatives and let them know to get DOGE out of all of the offices and to keep their hands off YOUR social security because you have paid into it your entire working life.

Just an FYI: Medicaid fraud is rarely perpetrated by beneficiaries. The fraudsters are almost always the doctors and CEO's that administer Medicaid. For example: when a doctor charges the government $600 for an $8 breast pump and pockets the cash and the third party administrator takes a cut.

A deadly mystery disease in Congo has killed 50+ people—half within 48 hours. Serious question: If a deadly virus hits our shores, how will we even know other than word-of-mouth? Trump pulled us from WHO, is gutting the CDC & put an antivaxxer who thinks WiFi causes “leaky brain” in charge of HHS.
