hi, cis folks!

the comment period for the proposed rule to remove trans care from the ACA as an essential health benefit is open til april 11. it'd strip care from DACA recipients, too.

context & guidance in the thread. do it while you’re still fired up from/about protests.

only 4.5 days left!
hi, cis folks!

if we *are* going to talk ACA, RFK's HHS proposed a rule to remove *all trans care* from ACA essential health benefit status.

~25mil people are insured by ACA & if 1% are trans, that's 250,000 people who'd lose access to care.

that's bad! take 2 minutes to stand with trans people.🧵

Might be cheesy but I keep telling myself the quote from Fellowship of the Ring:
“There is naught that you can do, other than to resist, with hope or without it. But you do not stand alone”
For me, fighting fascism has nothing to do with thinking I’ll win. I don’t fight because there’s an inevitable outcome, I fight because I couldn’t live with myself if I didn’t do something.

The democrats banning TikTok was the most efficient I’ve ever seen them be. All to provide Trump with the easiest political appeal to young people imaginable

this urge to launder rfk jr. as “just a guy who is right about a few things” is such a perfect example of how liberals are people who won’t take their own side in a fight

400+ years after the "First Thanksgiving" most Americans have no idea that the Wampanoag people are still here. My tribe, the Aquinnah Wampanoag, is on Martha's Vineyard and we're still fighting for our land and rights. We’re also doing some cool stuff. 🧵👇 if you’d like to learn more & support us

Obsessed with the rise of fan edits for the nfl, why the hell do they have me about to crash out missing Joe Mixon. How could the Bengals do this www.tiktok.com/t/ZTYFLE9a5/

Look I’m a communist from Kentucky and I am continually at odds with the Kentucky Democratic Party- and I don’t always agree with Andy Beshear’s politics- but he ran a campaign in Kentucky that rarely ceded that the Republican framework was correct and won twice.
Governor Andy Beshear, in a Trump +30 state, gives advice to Democrats: Do not throw LGBTQ+ people under the bus, it will not work.

His advice to dems: Lead on your values.

This man ran on a fully inclusive campaign in 2023 and won. He received the same kind of ads Harris did.

It is crucial that we rethink our approach to direct action in a potentially authoritarian, dictatorial context.
