The sad truth about our country.
Great piece on Trump's 'Quiet, piggy' moment. This phrase could be the new shorthand way to explain how abusers silence their victims. Keep quiet or be punished cruelly.

Heidi Stevens: After Trump’s ‘Quiet, piggy’ moment, we’re done asking why survivors don’t come forward, right?
If we’re going to become a nation that truly protects children and women, we have to stop giving a pass to sexual abusers, writes Heidi Stevens.

How is this possible. If a nurse or a physicians assistant aren't professionals who are?
The DOE just cut multiple fields from the “professional degree” list, shrinking loan access for future workers. Nursing, PAs, PT, OT, audiology, public health, social work, & education master’s all got dropped.
And yes, they’re fields dominated by women.

Nursing is no longer counted as a 'professional degree' by Trump admin
The Department of Education has excluded nursing as a "professional degree" program as it implements various changes to student loans.

This is not normal behavior for a person. Is this how we want the world to believe that Americans treat people. I don't!
The whole world witnessed how Trump aggressively launched a misogynistic verbal attack against Jennifer Jacobs.
I stand with her, never trivialize or banalize violence against women.

Republican talking point.
Although the United States had a period of relatively unrestricted immigration in its early history, it has never had a policy of open borders, which would allow anyone to enter and reside in the country without restriction.

He thinks we’re too stupid to figure out the $1T in Medicaid/CHIP cuts and the additional $350B in reductions far exceed Republicans small ‘gift’.
Hospitals will close and people will die because of it.

Also, we are not talking about a lot of calls here. After Hurricane Helene, FEMA was inundated with over 100,000 calls a day.
The Texas floods generated a small fraction of that, but still overwhelmed Noem’s FEMA

Amazing watching these rightwing grifters blame Pam Bondi for refusing to release the Epstein files— as if she has an ounce of autonomy. As if she’s not merely a Trump appendage. The mental gymnastics they do to avoid acknowledging that their deity was close with a pedophile is a sight to behold.
