Republicans don't believe in the separation of Church and State.
They do, however, believe in the separation of Jesus and Christianity.

When your neighbor on the left is being dragged away by masked men and your neighbor on the right can't get an X-ray for their child, be sure to quickly explain that "both parties are the same" and whatnot.

It's at 3131 Olympic Blvd, Santa Monica, CA 90404.
If you're taking the Metro E Line into Santa Monica get off at the Bergamot/26th street station. The theater's about half a mile to the east.
If you're planning on protesting outside the theater, wear a hat. There's not much shade.

"Out of the Ashes" is a cozy fairy-tale retelling, based on "The Wonderful Birch" which is an early Cinderella variant. It's told from the POV of three women, and is set in a fictionalized Settlement-era ("viking") Iceland. www.smashwords.com/books/view/1257642 #BookSky #Smashwords

It’s wanting to abolish Section 504, wanting to cut Medicare, wanting to get rid of DEIA, wanting to stop people working from home. All of this will kill disabled people. When we tell you that pandemics lead to fascism, this is what we mean. When you excuse our deaths, these policies are pushed.

"$880 billion in Medicaid cuts" is just erasing Medicaid entirely.
It's more than the total the federal government spent on Medicaid in Fiscal Year 2023.

We've been screaming about how not masking is comfort-fascism (you choosing physical & emotional comfort over the lives in your community) LISTEN TO US already.
If you arent masking, folks who know how bad things are about to get already dont trust you bc youre killing us.
Mask or we all perish.

Mask bans kill disabled people. It’s a eugenics tool. By others not masking in solidarity, you’re saying your comfort and convenience is more important than our lives. Abled comfort and convenience do not outweigh disabled lives and safety. Does your “we keep us safe” include disabled people?

Reminder: Passport or not, nobody wants the disabled.
We're stuck here in the US.
There's no fleeing. There's no moving elsewhere. Nobody wants us.
We may be able to travel, but they'll send us back just as quick.

Happy Valentine's Day. Disabled ppl receiving sub-poverty level govt income assistance still don't have marriage/relationship equality. Disability rates are tied to total household income which = callbacks & often forces us to be totally financially dependent on those we live with, leading to abuse.

If they cut #Medicaid and require people to work to get it
And you're not on #SSI or #SSDI but are still disabled
And you live in a state that allows you to have a medical waiver signed by a doctor
How do you get the waiver without having Medicaid??
(rhetorical, I know the answer)

Something you can do to stand against RFK jr’s attempt to make us all sicker is wear a mask when you share air with others. Resist mask bans. People who cannot afford to get sick have a right to exist in public. Masking will protect your health from him too.
BREAKING: RFK Jr. was just confirmed HHS Secretary 48-52.
