Healthcare should not be based on job or wealth. Every other modernized country has figured out this out. Why not us? Because the insurance lobby has bought govmt and convinced Americans "socialized" medicine is bad. Imagine your house on fire and having to be "approved" for the fire department.

When the Press, Pundits, and Politicians start caring about poor children gunned down in their homes, schools, malls, movie theaters, and churches...

The Marmalade Menace is foregoing any safety measures, and just pushing through his cabinet picks. No vetting. Just choose the worst people and put them in power.

Remember when being a woman was a pre-existing medical condition? Insurance companies could actually deny coverage for pregnancies.
MAGA Republicans have promised to repeal the Affordable Care Act and leave every person in the US with a pre existing condition vulnerable again.
We will stop them!

A fuckton of folks are obeying in advance already & while it’s unsurprising, it’s still really sad.
If you can’t stand for what you believe in this moment, when so much we face requires it, then you weren’t meant for this fight.
Man the fuck up or shut the fuck up.
We got shit to do.

Here's what will drive King Pumpkin Tits insane:
Hearing over and over that he's not the real POTUS. Musk is. He's Musk's bitch. This will hurt more than calling him Putin's bitch. And it will be Donald's undoing. Do it. Poke him with it relentlessly.
This is the new assignment.

BIG NEWS: A Wyoming judge just struck down WY's abortion bans.
And get this: The judge invoked a constitutional amendment codifying a right to make health care decisions... that was passed in 2012 by conservatives who thought it'd screw Obamacare! Just backfired.

How Attacks Against Obamacare Turned Into Tools to Protect Abortion Access

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens.
Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”
