In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

I’m furious with Republicans who betray this country without consequence. 🤬

I refuse to stay silent while they grovel before Trump and sell out everything America stands for.

So I’m picking up the phone. I’m calling them directly. And I’m not holding back. 1/4
Script to Call Republicans: Based on your silence as Trump openly grovels before Putin, your rubber-stamping of dangerous extremists like Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel, and your endless contortions to defend his corruption, it's clear you have abandoned any pretense of integrity. You have sold your soul, not for principle, not for country, but out of sheer, sniveling cowardice. You have stood by, spineless and complicit, as Trump dismantles democracy, poisons institutions, and emboldens dictators. Obviously you don't care about America. You don't care about its people. All that matters to you is doing whatever it takes to save your own skin. How do you sleep at night? You will not be remembered as a leader, but as a spineless accomplice to a man who sought to dismantle everything this country stands for. No excuse will cleanse you. No lie will erase your complete and total capitulation to a madman. I hope you never know another moment's peace, that your every waking hour is plagued by the weight of your betrayal. And when the reckoning comes, may you find no escape from the consequences-the price of choosing to look the other way. @cmar0561.bsky.social

This! Vaccines are safe. My deepest empathy with all the children, that are willfully endangered by their parents by not vaccinating them.

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.
Excerpt from a public letter Roald Dahl wrote encouraging people to vaccinate their children. Olivia, my eldest daughter, caught measles when she was seven years old. As the illness took its usual course I can remember reading to her often in bed and not feeling particularly alarmed about it. Then one morning, when she was well on the road to recovery, I was sitting on her bed showing her how to fashion little animals out of coloured pipe-cleaners, and when it came to her turn to make one herself, I noticed that her fingers and her mind were not working together and she couldn’t do anything. “Are you feeling all right?” I asked her. “I feel all sleepy,” she said. In an hour, she was unconscious. In twelve hours she was dead. The measles had turned into a terrible thing called measles encephalitis and there was nothing the doctors could do to save her. That was twenty-four years ago in 1962, but even now, if a child with measles happens to develop the same deadly reaction from measles as Olivia did, there would still be nothing the doctors could do to help her. On the other hand, there is today something that parents can do to make sure that this sort of tragedy does not happen to a child of theirs. They can insist that their child is immunized against measles. I was unable to do that for Olivia in 1962 because in those days a reliable measles vaccine had not been discovered. Today a good and safe vaccine is available to every family and all you have to do is to ask your doctor to administer it.

The government is prioritizing federal funds & projects for states with higher than normal birth rates.
Vance said he wants lots of babies and happy families.
Yet the WH is cutting money to fund free lunches, SNAP benefits and health insurance.

What we need to do is have a nationwide strike. Taking to the streets will only bring Trump calling for marshall law and using the military. Just let us stay home and not buy a damn thing. buy local fill up with gas. and let us the people let them know we are tired of their damn games.

Well, I am just amazed. The Top Clown just about has all of his jokers picked, and the Circus is going to be must-watch news. Who will make it and who will lose? The biggest question is how much is the audience willing to pay?
