The devastating flu epidemic of 1918 was particularly dangerous for young adults, for people in their prime, who died by the millions. But RFK Jr. is too stupid to know that. Link below.

‼️THIS IS NOT A DRILL! Congress is one House vote away from passing Trump's “big beautiful bill”—a federal government funding bill that would destroy Medicaid and DEVASTATE reproductive health care across the country, forcing Planned Parenthood's vital health centers to close.

For our LA friends - please show up if you can. We stand in solidarity with SEIU and David. He's showing us immense courage. Let's show him it's contagious.
Military style ICE raids in our communities. David Huerta was beaten and dragged away.

Because he saw them and stood up for justice. Because he’s not afraid.

Neither are we.

On MONDAY let's #FreeDavidHuerta, #FreeThemAll
