Good morning! I'm still 27 short to be able to stay sheltered due at noon. Could you please amplify? I might have to go to the hospital today again but hoping I don't. Much appreciated, and I hope you all have a safe and peaceful weekend full of love. Details in comment below, and pinned post.

Every day that Abrego Garcia isn’t returned or accounted for a deep dread grows in me that we’re approaching a moment where we’re going to learn the President of the United States has set up a system of death camps.

BREAKING: Sen @ChrisVanHollen met with El Salvador's Vice President Félix Ulloa

He told Van Hollen that the reason they are holding Kilmar Abrego Garcia at CECOT is because the Trump administration is paying them to do so.

Trump is literally colluding with El Salvador to violate a Supreme Court

Zay has been discharged for two weeks, and dealing with incredibly difficult Long Cov¡d complications. They have a room for tonight but 80 is due by the morning. Temp h0using is 80/day or 450/week, which is ideal. They have to rest to heal, as well as to afford food. Please amplify, thanks.
Zay has been discharged for two weeks, and they’ve received very scant community care as well as dealing with incredibly difficult Long Cov¡d complications. They have a room for tonight but 80.00 is due by tomorrow morning to stay inside. Temp h0using is 80/day or 450/week, which is ideal. Being indoors is crucial to Zay’s recovery! They have to rest to heal, as well as to afford food. Please show up in any way you can. Every little bit counts. Telling others or circulating this graphic goes a long way, as well. Please amplify, thanks.

Zay was discharged from another long-covid hospital round, and is seeking aid for housing. 80 is required. 450 would cover a week. Any aid is appreciated. Please amplify!

Question for engagement: What do you do to find joy?
Zay is a queer person who is chronically ill due to long cov¡d and dealing with h0uselessness. They were previously in the hosp¡tal for 23 days, have been in and out since with little to no care, and just got discharged again after a week, and are urgently seeking community care. The overall goal is a 450.00 weekly rate, which is the lowest option when paid in full. If not, the daily rate is more, which is 80.00. Zay is aiming to raise enough for a week or even longer if possible so they can stay indoors and rest to heal, and be able to get food. I implore you to please show up for Zay. Do what you can for them. Every little bit truly counts and is appreciated.

How many train wrecks do we have to survive before we pull our heads out of our collective asses and let women run this country?

They called it from day one.

Sheltered, but still need food, and if I don’t raise the goal for a week, or more, I at least hopefully need to raise 80, so I won’t lose my room AGAIN tomorrow. The last time I was able to eat something was three nights ago. Anything helps. Please repost the original post below!

Aside from Pam Bondi continuing to hide the Epstein files in order to scrub any connection to the orange felon, she’s also refusing to investigate the deliberate national security disaster that took place on Signal Chat. She’s a criminal hired by a criminal, she’s not an AG.

Still hospitalized. Trying to get covered with housing when discharged. Please read details in graphic, and please circulate with community. Much appreciated!
Zay is a queer person who is chronically ill due to long Cov¡d struggling with extreme complications and h0uselessness. They have been in and out of the hosp¡tal dealing with Long Cov¡d for months with little to no care. They are now in the hosp¡tal again and are still being ignored and can’t properly rest unless we all show up. The daily fee for a room is 80.00, and the weekly rate is 450.00, which is the most affordable option when paid in full. Can we make sure they have h0using when they get out of the hosp¡tal? I implore you to please show up for Zay. Do what you can for them. Read to learn how you can be there. Every little bit truly counts.
