i am not interested in any politician who will turn the temperature down, who thinks we need to forgive and forget and focus on infrastructure spending. fuck off with all that. if you’re too afraid to call out right wing extremism when they murder your colleague, it’s not your time imo.

This is the kind of awareness and conversation we need more of.
Because women deserve better.
Because our risks are real.
Because silence around women’s health has cost us too much for too long.
Let’s keep the conversation going.

A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.
