❌👑 Over the past month, we’ve watched as ICE executed two people in broad daylight and more behind closed doors. They have invaded our communities and are using children as bait to lure our neighbors out of their homes. 👑❌

On March 28th, we’re standing up against these masked terrorists.

Friday is a general strike. I have been torn as to how to participate. As a healthcare professional I feel the need to pay tribute to Alex, but at the same time, take care of my patients. I am thinking of changing my work name badge to “Alex Pretti“ for the day.

Reminder: ICE’s budget has not been renewed — the House voted, but not the Senate — It will take 10 Democratic votes to stop it

Pressure your senators

No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside
Just a world that we all must share
It’s not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there’ll be
No more turning away

Where are all the good guys with guns? The people who have spent the last 50 years telling us that we had to make sure every American has a gun in case we needed them to protect ourselves from tyranny?

And where are the stories to point this out (they may be there; I just don't know)?

Wyrd Sisters novel by Terry Pratchett written in 1988 is very relevant to politics of our current situation.

The Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas and nooses as hate symbols.

This action, coupled with the President's call to hang Democratic members of Congress - both in the past few hrs - are more than "potentially divisive."

They are vile, unconscionable, and dangerous.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Next year, Americans will see the biggest jump in health insurance costs in 15 years.

Meanwhile, the seven largest health insurance companies made a combined $71B in profits in 2024.

It’s far past time for Medicare for All. Here’s what you need to know.
