This 3 minute video is a fascinating history of the beginnings of right-wing actors using Twitter to amplify conspiracy theories and Donald Trump.

The same people demanding you present a photo ID to vote are perfectly fine with letting you be arrested, handcuffed & thrown into a van by armed men wearing plain clothes, face masks & presenting no identification of any sort.

Medicaid covers...
-40% of births nationwide
-50% of kids with special needs
-72 million people in total
Remember this as Republicans move to gut the program to finance tax cuts that will overwhelmingly go to the richest 1% of Americans.

For years, progressives have fantasized finding a Joe Rogan of their own: But Blue Joe Rogan will never materialize.
And that’s for the best.
And that’s for the best.
Liberal Media in Crisis? Not The MeidasTouch. It’s Bigger than Rogan.
For real. The podcast by Ben Meiselas and his brothers regularly outdraws Joe Rogan’s. Their secret weapon? Reason. Imagine!

I asked the one high ranking policeman I saw on 5th Ave why there were so few police. He said “We did not expect anything like this. Don’t tell anyone but I’ve only got 44 officers out here — and it’s a great crowd, great event, no incidents.”
I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

Booing after he blamed Biden for "getting price of eggs out of control."
Talk about chutzpah. He's blaming Biden for the economy. He crashed the financial markets and is not making "America affordable again."

A tight seal is key, these masks will have two straps that
