Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist.
He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

Billionaire tax cuts that will trickle down by hurting children who are our future.
Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.”
There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.

Cutting healthcare for nearly 30,000,000 children while also cutting the food programs they depend on is proof that we live in the cruelest of countries. What nation starves their own children and keeps them sick and suffering?
36-40% of America's kids are on Medicaid at any given time. Congress is declaring war on our children. They are intentionally inflicting suffering on little children so a handful of billionaires can hoard even more wealth.

For some children school is a refuge from a turbulent home life and a path to a better life.
Happy Public Schools Week!
As a former teacher, I know that public schools are not just where our kids go to learn - they’re the center of our communities.
That’s why I was proud to make the largest investment in public schools in state history.

This action is not serving the Citizens of America. It is feeding the rich while starving the vulnerable.
BREAKING: House Republicans just passed their budget resolution 217-215 that would virtually guarantee deep cuts to Medicaid and food stamps, all to fund a major tax break for the ultrawealthy... and still add trillions to the national debt.

Those battling Alaska child abuse argue state law lacks physical abuse protections
Pictures featuring children who underwent child abuse evaluations at The Children’s Hospital at Providence were shown to some state lawmakers by advocates arguing a loophole in current Alaska child abuse law lacks physical abuse protections.

We actually leave trillions of dollars on the table every year in unpaid taxes. Not extra taxes, taxes that are not paid by the super rich who owe them because the IRS doesn’t have enough money and resources to go after them.
Firing thousands of hardworking civil servants at the IRS won't save us money.
It'll add billions to the deficit by making it easier for the ultra-rich to cheat on their taxes.
While billionaires line their pockets, families will struggle to get the help they need from the IRS.

“Trumpism will not be defeated by politicians inside the D.C. Beltway,” Sanders said. “It will only be defeated by millions of Americans…in every state in this country, who come together in a strong grassroots movement and say no to oligarchy, no to authoritarianism, no to kleptocracy.”

It doesn't seem like rocket science science that medical care helps humans survive.
I'm dumb. I can't figure out how to end world hunger. But I do promise that I will continue to change healthcare in this country and make it more affordable, possibly setting a path towards Universal Healthcare.

Enacting cuts to life-saving care and earned benefits is a crime against humanity.
While Republicans are trying to gut Medicaid, Democrats are fighting to save it.
We know that healthcare is a human right, not a privilege for the wealthy.
