Buried deep inside Mike Johnson’s short-term government funding bill is a 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗮𝘆 𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗲 — the first since 2009. If approved this week, lawmakers will get an annual pay raise as high as $6,600. Outrageous!

When they talk about privatizing Veterans’ care and Medicare, they mean allowing companies to provide healthcare for a profit.
But how do companies make those profits? By *denying* care to many who need it.
Don’t get fooled by the “privatization” label. It means “for profit” and YOU are the cost.

Still not over the fact that the man who could be in charge of our health has stocked roadkill in his fridge, had a worm in his brain, is anti-vax, suggested we consume raw milk (despite a raw milk bird flu outbreak) and spoke positively about hardcore drugs.

@thinkrii.bsky.social had you heard about this?
I am watching with grave concern over the actions of the South Korean president to declare martial law, all because the opposition has blocked his agenda and impeached his cabinet.
Democracy is under assault across much of the world. We must be on highest guard here as well as Trump takes office.

My major concern is what may happen to Social Security and Medicare.
Project 2025 calls for the gutting of both.
It's time to prepare to insulate ourselves as best we can.

@kawamataryo.bsky.social Does your app SkyFollower Bridge work for those of us who are using an IPad ? I haven’t had any success and wondered if it’s because I’m not using a laptop.
