Friggin insanity
Carol Olinger needed her insulin at 6pm and has an appointment for kidney dialysis at 6am.

Spread this message to make sure she's released. Her health is endangered.

Disabled activist Carol Olinger is still in custody after peacefully protesting GOP Medicaid cuts.

She needs insulin NOW & has kidney dialysis at 6am.

This is medical neglect—cruel and deliberate. Her life is at risk.

We demand her release & care. Please share widely!

It’s no coincidence that there’s always a major catastrophe or crisis in the Middle East when the orange felon is in power which is even more proof that crime slumlord Jared Kushner’s fake Middle East peace mission was nothing more than a scheme to earn his $2B Saudi paycheck.

Trump just wants to grift and tell people who to blame next. These christo-fascists want to actually rule and kill those who they hate. David Barton is in Mike Johnson's ear for sure

Civil Rights juggernaut Rev. Dr. John M. Perkins (my grandpa) has touched more people’s lives than anyone could count.

Today, every white American should be required to read his 1st book from 1976. It tells his story; one of restorative justice, faith, hope and progress. Presumably banned soon. 🖤🖤

Russian Tass state media has just published the following on its Telegram channel:

"The parliament of Iran has approved a strategic partnership agreement with Russia. This was reported by the Embassy of the Islamic Republic in Russia."

Very curious timing.

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

They launched a coup, suffered no consequences for it, won back power, and have used the power to pardon everyone involved while remaking the country through violence and intimidation. It’s just ridiculous to talk about the political violence of yelling at ICE agents within that context.

With the tragic assassination of a Minnesota Democratic leader, I’m going to underline this point again.
I know there's a lot going on, but the Secretary of Homeland Security declaring that federal troops are in California and Los Angeles to "liberate" the state and city from its duly-elected leaders really is a fourteen-alarm fire.
It's mind-blowing how little attention this extraordinary statement has received. It's briefly mentioned in a couple news articles, but this MSNBC opinion piece is the only extended discussion of it I've seen: www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...
