Thing no one tells you about being a parent to a child battling cancer is how incredibly lonely it is...I haven't heard from people I considered close friends for months. Some days that is crippling.

What the heck does the *again* mean? Were we healthier when maternal mortality was twice as high, or when polio and measles were routine killers, or when the fresh produce section in the supermarket was a little postage stamp? Come on now!
MAHA Is a Fraud
America has never been healthier. Going backwards is going to mean more people getting sick and dying.

All this "age of Social Security recipients" stuff is b/c DOGE dudes miscalculated in their analysis.

AS TRUMP'S OWN SOCIAL SECURITY CHIEF INDICATED: www.cbsnews.com/news/social-...
New Social Security chief refutes claims of deceased people over 100 years old getting checks
Elon Musk had claimed that DOGE found evidence of 150-year-olds receiving Social Security benefits.

Trudeau: I want to speak first directly to the American people… your government has chosen to do this to you. Your government has chosen to put American jobs at risk. They have chosen to raise costs for American consumers on everyday essential items…

"That, my friends, is a power so vast you can’t even conceive of it. And it didn’t just apply to our adversaries—it applied to our friends, too." That is the power "America First" is choosing to give up.

Today's Triad from @jvl.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/america-fi...
‘America First’ Is a Lie
America has *always* been about putting America first. Trump’s “America First” movement is about something else entirely.

Openly call it a coup and hostile occupation

The most reliable counter to a fascist coup is a popular front uprising.

The most effective thing opposition leaders can do is call the situation what it is & start building it.

We must show that this Govt is as illegitimate as the Vichy Govt was.
