“Give me your tired, your poor,

The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,

‪Republicans are going on about healthcare reform.

The best reform would be universal, comprehensive, single payer healthcare.‬

‪Everyone knows this except for the Republicans and even some Democrats in Washington.‬

‪Nobody cares what it's called, just do it! #MedicareForAll

The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

Every major talent that works for ABC and Disney should refuse to show up for work until Jimmy Kimmel is reinstated.

Marvel movies need to shutdown. Ditto the sitcoms.

Collective boycott.

Corporations love money more than anything,& this will harm them and force them to do the right thing.

It's time to start teaching responsible technology use in the classroom starting with making smart phones into tools not toys.

Kids should be prepared for a future that expects it.

Sadly, here in NY, that's not possible because @governor.ny.gov took their cell phones away.

Ossoff: He never should have been confirmed by the senate and he needs to resign. It is one thing to be a skeptic or a reformer. It is quite another to be a fool…

I don't have to go to a cemetery to see this. I was born in 1952 and went to school with kids on crutches and in braces because of polio. I had measles and mumps myself when I was only 3-6 years old. The vaccines didn't exist yet. I have a good memory and those are all bad memories.

"In 1900, 31% of all deaths were children under the age of 5.

Today, it's 0.7%.

Vaccines, medications, and modern science are the reason why. Trust the science, it's been proven to work safely and effectively time and time again."

Vaccines work.
Anti-Vaxxers are just wrong.
And deeply immoral.

In 1900, nearly 1 in 5 children in America died before age five. Vaccines changed that.

But Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s lies are fueling a public health catastrophe.

People will get sick. People will die. Science saves lives—misinformation kills.

If we really want to “make America healthy again,” we’d have Medicare for All.

One of my daughters is a teacher. Her school gives teachers an app to receive security and emergency notifications.

My other daughter is a student. Wouldn’t it be great if she had the same app?

Well she can’t because @governor.ny.gov took away her phone.

94% of teachers have had to dip into their own pockets to buy school supplies. An estimated 1 in 6 have second jobs during the school year to make ends meet.

The average Wall Street employee got a record $244,700 bonus last year.

Something has gone terribly wrong.
