Powerful hearing international nurses and nursing support workers responding to Kier Statmer at RCN Congress.

His words hurt. His anti-migrant rhetoric has been labeled a 'betrayal'.

We called, they came. Thank you to all our international colleagues.

My water bill with Southern Water has gone up 47%. I literally have no idea how people will be able to pay such a large increase.

White House inadvertently texted top-secret Yemen war plans to journalist In extraordinary blunder top Trump cabinet members added Atlantic editor to chat discussing strikes on Houthis

Curious to see if the Maga voters will be at least just as upset at Trump’s cabinet for sending classified war plans to a journalist as they were at Hilary for using a personal computer πŸ€” I suspect #hypocrisy #resist

I suspect younger people who don’t remember pre-ACA can’t fathom how bad it was because the thought of it being even worse than it is now is hard to imagine.

What they don’t understand is how hard of a fight it was just to get what we ended up with.

This is exactly what I have been saying for a while now. At this point, it’s not left vs right that matters, but fighters vs non-fighters. The Dems, and the American people, need fighters.

With so many things, we often can't explicitly see the benefits of things in our day to day but our world works as a network and funding for one thing, often boosts other areas that do directly benefit your day to day needs and joys. Cutting Fed funding now, will cause damage #Resist #Organize

"I think we’re gonna get it. One way or another we’re gonna get it.” Trump talking about Greenland. YOUR (MAGA) isolationist President has been acting as an aggressor. Between this and Canada, it’s YOUR GUY who is going to start WWIII.

What kind of belittling behaviour is this and what type of press cares about suits when war and peace is the topic?

Unplugged for work today and now catching up with news on #Gaza to see Trump and the state of Israel is doubling down on his ethnic cleansing.

I skimmed this list a few days ago but I didn't see that the word "female" was included. This will make it even harder to get funding for research into women's health issues. And "barrier"? What if someone wanted to study a drug crossing the blood-brain barrier? This is crazy.

Oh god, didn’t even notice barrier. This will significant long-term impacts. Every day my heart and brain is telling me … this is it, dystopia is here. #resist #organize

But, it doesn’t directly impact men, it wasn’t studied enough.

An example of why this matters; If we had equitable research, maybe doctors would actually learn more about menopause, not just the tropes you see on tv. It’s laughable how little training doctors receive about something that will happen to half of the population & drastically affect quality of life

National Science Foundation grants will not be awarded to research that includes terms on this list - No funding for the study of ovarian cancer? Or sickle cell anemia in the Black population? Women & minorities were rarely included in medical research until 93 & now we’re going back? 1/2
