We are on the verge of making #polio the second human disease to be consigned to history.
Decades ago, humanity bridged geopolitical and geographic borders to end smallpox.
Let's do the same for polio.
Let's finish the job.

Headlines matter. Once again, the @washingtonpost.com blaming Dems, vs saying shutdown driven by Reps demands to make health care more expensive for (checks notes) everyone. At a minimum, try “shutdown driven by disagreement between Republicans and Democrats on providing healthcare tax subsidies.”

I would add “pain and cruelty” as well. Every action seems designed to inflict rather than prevent pain and cruelty.
The constant question to ask with this administration is whether the action they’re taking actually works to keep people safe.
The answer will always be no. For them it’s never about safety and always about power and control.
But we have to keep asking the question and keep centering safety.

Back in the US for a few weeks and watching the shows. My hot take: Stop saying “Trump this and Trump that.” Start talking about Stephen Miller, Peter Thiel, Russell Vought as the (sick, twisted) brains behind everything that’s happening. Emasculate Trump, the puppet in this entire shit show.

REPORTER: If the point is to get everybody on the same page, why wouldn't Trump just take the call from Putin when the other leaders were in the room?

This level of strategic petty is absolute genius. @natsechobbyist.bsky.social is a treasure.
UPDATE: I called Steve and asked him if he wanted to delete his post calling for the murder of my husband and me or should I have people call them all day and he hung up on me so I think that means he wants people to call his business all day.
Steve works at Carmichael Ace Hardware. Their phone number is 916-489-1999.

I’m hearing a lot of despair and “what’s the point”-ing.
Here’s the point:
ONE less person kidnapped by ICE.
ONE more child vaccinated.
ONE grant reinstated.
ONE more PEPFAR treatment.
ONE more meal to a hungry kid.
ONE more person covered by Medicaid.
One life is ALWAYS worth resistance.

Take a moment to truly absorb that he’s making a joke about someone getting attacked by an alligator. He is heartless, cruel and so devoid of any moral compass.
REPORTER: Is the idea that if some illegal immigrants escapes, they get eaten by an alligator or a snake?
TRUMP: I guess that's the concept. This is not a nice business. I guess that's the concept.

Republicans snuck a line into their "big beautiful bill” that could CLOSE nearly 200 Planned Parenthood locations.
And guess what? 90% of those centers would be in states where abortion is LEGAL.
It’s one step closer to banning abortion nationwide.

If Trump/Vance/Rubio/Musk force Russia to give back the land they stole, it makes it a bit more difficult for Team USA Dumpster Fire to justify invasions of Greenland, Canada and Panama.
'He said it was “a very fair proposal” that would “freeze the territorial lines at some level close to where they are today,” with both sides having to give up some territory they currently hold. He did not provide further details of the proposal.'

Pope Francis made those of us betrayed by the Catholic Church feel welcome again. May his memory be a blessing and his work just a start.
In Pope Francis’s last public address, he preached care of the marginalized, the vulnerable, and migrants, saying: “I would like all of us to hope anew and to revive our trust in others, including those who are different than ourselves.” May we heed his wish.
