BREAKING: Congress just gave final approval on a budget bill that guts Medicaid, defunds Planned Parenthood, and supercharges funding for ICE.

We the people will bear the brunt of these harmful policies — and we won’t forget who caused this devastation to our health, rights, and dignity.

Know your rights.

Stay calm. Don’t make threats. Send pictures/videos to trusted people ASAP in case your device ends up not accessible to you.

A sad day for America—Mahmoud Khalil, a Columbia University activist, has been arrested by ICE, not for any crime, but for his political activism. The Trump administration claims he was involved in “pro-terrorist” activities, yet no formal charges have been filed.

If you believe that people working in non-profit jobs helping children, elderly, and the rest of our at risk individuals are the “swamp” we don’t have a difference of opinions. We have a difference in morals and values. The below statement is mine too but over the word count to post here.

Mindset reset:

Right now, brave Ukrainians are defending their land & loved ones, at the cost of their sanity, limbs & lives. It’s an existential fight for their democracy & way of life.

If the Russians lose, they go home. If the Ukrainians lose, they will be overrun & destroyed.

It is TIME TO MARCH! Writing about this assault on our democracy in our own echo chamber isn’t doing anything to stop it. Where is our MLK? Who is he/she? This is the trumpet call and I for one will answer. I’ll be in Austin, TX. How about you?
