We don't give enough credit to journalists who risk life and limb to bring us the truth
Portland is a “war-ravaged” city that is “on fire,” President Trump warns. But I braved the artillery fire and militia checkpoints to bring you this video report from the front lines.

Do we really want him to touch our healthcare?????? HCA has destroyed our hospital system here in WNC. When healthcare is for profit, everyone loses.

Agree it starts at the top and he has got to go BUT his enablers and advisors need to be held accountable too. Getting rid of him will do nothing until the country, as a whole, deicide we need real Checks and Balances again.

How we do it is the question????

A GREAT reminder that a lot of prescription drugs are sold for very reasonable prices on Mark Cuban's costplusdrugs.com website. One of my drugs was $120.00 generic at my local pharmacy and is $16.00 on cost plus drugs.

I am VERY concerned but it doesn't seem to be toolsto use to change whats happening.
"What's happening now is what happened in Hungary and Turkey, which is using regulatory threats and lawsuits as a way to capture the media,
and to capture the information ecosystem. We should be all very, very concerned," says @krforde.bsky.social. newrepublic.substack.com/p/kimmels-su...

This man was courageous enough to stand up to Trump and Vance.

So it's important to post this message and photo to 27 million people.

Don't just "like" it -- that only means that YOU'VE seen it.

Postb it, blow it up and get it out there!
