Donald Trump illegally took military action against Iran—without congressional authorization—risking dragging us into another endless war.
I am calling for an immediate emergency session of Congress to vote on the War Powers Resolution.

Does anyone have any recommendations for yoga videos that focus less on the meditative aspect? I don't want to exhale negativity and inhale gratitude. I want to angrily stretch while fueled by la croix and coffee.

Excellent article about the fear many Americans are feeling about whether to flee & how to make sure they aren’t “too late”
Leaving is a valid path for some, but remember most disabled people (and many trans people) are trapped. Countries won’t take them. Moving requires resources they don’t have.

I am loving Daredevil: Unleash Hell so far (I'm on issue two). My girl Elektra deserves more love. Do I wish she still murdered once in a while? Yeah! But I'm still enjoying this status quo for her.

If you want to help disabled people fight New York's proposed mask ban... wear a mask.
If more people would mask up in solidarity, these important accessibility tools would be harder to ban.
Help us normalize masking and protect your health in the process!

Tell them:

2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.
Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

Why haven't we seen more backlash against the GOP's proposed cuts to Medicaid? One reason is that people may not know they're on Medicaid, because Medicaid has different names in different states (see 🧵). Another is that some people may not realize that they (or their kids) could qualify.
Many Medicaid recipients do not know they receive it because Medicaid is called different things in different states. The public narrative of Medicaid focuses on a distant other, but 40% of US children and 60% of nursing home residents receive Medicaid. Just SOME of the names by state are below:

Folks, get mad and stay mad. Republicans have the power to stop a lot of Trump's bullshit but they will only do it if they fear for their seats.
Elon Musk is cratering in polls:
WaPo: Only 34% approve of Musk's role, 63% worry about his data access
CNN: 54% say it's bad Musk was given a big role
Majorities disapprove of Trump in CNN, WaPo, Gallup.

Imagine if instead of banning masks, obfuscating data & threatening to destroy stockpile of covid tests we had upgraded air quality in public buildings, provided free respirators and made affordable home based PCRs?
We would be in a much better place.

Nazi salutes, anti-DEI, transphobia, ICE deportations - its all eugenics. Institutionalization and murder on the table. RFK's comment that race impacts vaccine schedules is scientific racism (which is at the heart of eugenics). His efforts to take away safe medications like SSRIs is eugenics. 11/20

Excellent thread on eugenics & the importance of recognizing that it’s happening all around us.
Everyone needs to push back. Just because the fascists aren’t targeting you does NOT mean you’re safe. Eugenicist authoritarianism harms everyone.
Do not do their dirty work for them, and wear a mask!

If you're struggling to understand how eugenics impacts daily life right now, I recommend going back to the historical records to see how the eugenics movement took off 100 years ago. We need to be able to recognize it when we see it, so that we can push back and resist. 1/20

Relentlessly calling your state legislators is much, much more effective than even calling Congress because most people don’t even know they exist. 20 phone calls is enough to be a “flood” of constituent opinions.
