The money that could have given Americans universal healthcare here at home is being spent instead to murder schoolgirls overseas.

Partner, mom, grandma, nurse and professor. Proud feminist. Abortion is healthcare. I voted for HER both times. Humans are not illegal. Everyone deserves love and safety, including food and healthcare. We MUST save the planet.

This is all itβs been about.
This is the core problem with MAHA framing. Yes, we have serious problems (e.g. obesity), but the picture isnβt uniformly bleak. In many areas, especially some cancers, outcomes are improving and death rates are falling.

Yβall.
Today's Republican voters have an overwhelming fear that somehow, somewhere, someone they view as inferior is being treated as an equal.
This defines everything they actively support, and everything they're willing to put up with.
As long as Republicans punch down, they'll never lose their base.

Good for you! I have to get regular MRIs and I am so anxious. It made me happy to hear someone else got over some of that anxiety.

πNow that ICE/DHS are planning to buy βmegaβ warehouse detention centers across the US to house human beings you might want to listen to this gentlemanβs history lesson that he delivered at a city council meeting in AZ. Congress needs to have hearings on this like yesterday.
Remember her name: Aliya Rahman
Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.
Itβs powerful. Itβs gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

In between all the fascism, it's also a MASSIVE crime wave.
βDear ICE agents - I hope youβre respectful to everyone and show kindnessβ¦ we should treat all people the same, even if we donβt know them.β

Just so everyone knows and understands. The cuts to your healthcare is whatβs paying for ICE. Almost a trillion dollars in healthcare was taken out and given to ICE. Understand how the dots connect. This is what this administration is doing.
"He was protesting,"
"She moved her car."
Any excuse to follow their Fuhrer's orders.
If ICE can murder you for having a legal firearm in your holster, then you don't have the right to bear arms.
Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him.
The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/
I'm at a loss for words. I'm glad someone else has them.
