It's urgent. Call both your US Senators.
No cuts to Medicaid.
The Capitol Switchboard number: (202) 224-3121.
Are you taking good care of your body, mind & emotions during these challenging times? Some of us may lose healthcare. I'm volunteering at a free community clinic one shift per week and calling on all HCWs to do the same. Mutual aid keeps us going during hard times.
Hey.
Here are your 2 minutes of peace and calm.

We bombed Iran without congressional approval and I still have chores and work and kids in sports and supper to make.
Living through autocracy and another possible forever war while living day to day is wild.
This is what Resistance looks like. We are not powerless. We hold all the cards, not ICE.

BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional.
We’ll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.
I wasn’t going to watch but I can’t not look at it. They have sponsors, they are playing the instrumental part of Barracuda by Heart as tanks are rolling by. The draft dodger in chief is saluting the soldiers which is super cringe.
ICE is going to parks in Los Angeles and kidnapping nannies who are caring for small children
The children are witnessing these kidnappings and being held in custody until their parents are contacted
Women and children in parks

Veterans stage a sit-in on the US Capitol steps and say, “Military off our streets!” Hell yeah!
It's a big weekend everywhere. If you're going out: have fun, take care of each other, and NEVER talk to police!
Take this advice from a professional:
🤣
“We won’t backdown. We won’t retreat! Vets say military off our streets!”
Veterans have broken through barriers and are protesting via a sit-in on the Capitol steps in DC.

Remember this: be unpredictable. “Outrun, outlast… make it impossible for them to justify the cost.” They’ve already wasted $131 million. We are fully committed to peaceful demonstrations, and just as committed to protecting our communities.
Image shows an owl with a hobby horse - looks like a witch on a broomstick
I have a new hero.
This owl stole a child's hobby horse and flies around with it!
An LAPD helicopter claimed to have ID'ed protesters from above and threatened to "come to your house."
The threat was greeted with extreme concern by civil liberties and digital privacy groups. It suggests the LAPD could be using facial recognition to identify and retaliate against protesters.
This is what’s happening
Crowds at the LA Football Club chanting Fuck ICE!
Music to my ears!
If you're a Marine or other service member being mobilized to Los Angeles and you'd like to apply for conscientious objector status, call the GI Rights Hotline to get some guidance on your options:

Well if that’s what it is, let’s get rid of it!
Things the president of the United States said on meet the press today:
He doesn’t know if he has to follow the constitution
He’s fine with a recession
Americans can do with less
Small businesses are just “a couple of little businesses”
This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!
And the judges. And the clerks.
Strong, persuasive, well-researched writing, under ridiculously tight deadlines.
Headline: ICE came for their neighbor so these Tennesseans formed a human chain to protect him
I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article
anyone else exhausted from all the constant trauma
THIS. #HandsOff
Marking myself "currently clean on OPSEC".
