Disabled people deserve healthcare.

Disabled people deserve housing.

Disabled people deserve food.

Disabled people deserve support.

Our ability to work and produce for capitalism should not determine our value.

Disability is not a moral failing. Most people will experience it someday.

Anyone can become disabled.

Anyone can lose their job.

Anyone can become homeless.

Anyone can go hungry.

These are not moral failings. They can happen in an instant.

Most people are far closer to living in poverty than they realize.

We must fight for one another & for the most vulnerable.

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

What has been happening in Gaza has always been genocide and it’s good more people are coming around to that brutal reality but it also needs to be noted that those who have spending the last two and half years attacking anyone correctly calling it a genocide can never be trusted again.

Apparently Texas sends mass “Blue Alerts” to phones every time a cop is in danger.

And a lot of people are so understandably sick of it that they’ve *turned emergency alerts off entirely*, meaning that they aren’t getting actually-useful notifications.

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

The claims that McIver, Padilla, and Lander were committing assault should make you question every other time LEOs claim assault or resisting arrest, if you weren’t already.

Thank you to the LAPD for radicalizing thousands of more people against them. Every time you tear gas people, a radical gets their wings.

Lots of people don’t want to believe it will happen at a “peaceful” protest but it does and it will.

A Border Patrol official arrested a 19 yo citizen from Albuquerque in Arizona who didn’t have ID on him, claimed he ‘admitted’ to illegally crossing the border, abducted + ICE imprisoned him for 10 days, and would have deported him to Mexico if his family hadn’t tracked him down and provided his ID.

UPDATE: ICE has awarded a new contract worth up to $3.8 billion for the company to operate a migrant detention camp on Fort Bliss — its largest contract yet. It's the first time ICE is moving ahead with plans to detain thousands of people arrested on U.S. military bases in tents before deportation.

My cancer treatments are paid for by Medicaid. It’s good insurance, it covers all my labs, procedures, and the copious amount of meds I have to take each day. Without it I will die a slow excruciatingly painful death. Gather your reps and give them a call tomorrow, not one moment of peace.

This is an excellent summary of the devastating changes to Social Security due to go into effect on March 31. Without a vote!

Are you elderly? Disabled? Have elderly or disabled loved ones? Please please absorb the points Olivia is making here & put pressure on your elected representatives.
Elon Musk called Social Security a “Ponzi Scheme.” To be clear: the Muskrat & Trump want to make it harder for you to get what you paid into. 72 MILLION Americans are about to feel this. Social Security is under attack. Medicare and Medicaid are next in line…

NO KINGS

gets you the three good American wars, in chronological order no less. sounds insane to argue against any of them and yet it is very clear which side you're on
I see the phrase "competitive authoritarianism" thrown around a lot on here and while that may be descriptive of the moment we're in I cannot stress enough that you should never say that phrase to a normal voter and instead just say Trump's trying to be king.
