A terrified American watching her country die but still praying it won't.As ever, I'm intolerant of intolerance and bigoted about bigots.

No. The Medicaid portals were shut down because the OMB demanded they be. They’re only back up because of the outcry. I’d tell you to stop lying but we know that’s a feature of this administration.

Jim Acosta just powerfully announced on air he is leaving CNN with the words: "It is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant." He added, "Don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to the fear. Hold on to the truth and to hope." Amen. Jim will be missed.

Privatizing the VA means putting our veterans' healthcare in the hands of corporations that prioritize profits over people. We can't let this happen!
They'll start with the VA, then move on to Medicare & Medicaid.
Save veterans' healthcare!!

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
Auschwitz took time.

Pretty wild that Elon’s debut as president elect was to strip funding for pediatric cancer research from the spending bill, only to watch the Senate have to pass it as a standalone bill. His first move was to fuck over kids with cancer.

After I got my doctorate in health admin, I could have taken a cushy job atop a corporate health firm & gotten rich off denying claims, but instead, I chose a low-paying civil service job to help care for Veterans & the Military. So don't give me that "he was only doing his job" crap.

As someone on SSDI I can't tell you how it hurts to listen to people speak about Social Security and Medicare but fail to mention the populations who subsist on these programs:
Seniors: 77.8%
Survivors: 11.2%
People w/Disabilities: 11%
It's very crucial in our messaging to ensure EVERYONE is seen.

I wonder how many realize Musk has a long history of firing extremely qualified people who displease him and bringing into his companies either his friends or relatives. This is a man who has no sense of efficiency whatsoever. He's a robber baron and we can keep acting surprised about it if we like.
Only the best.

The involvement of wealthy investors has made this presidential transition one of the most potentially conflict-ridden in modern history.

Amid the backdrop that more than a dozen members of Trump's Cabinet are billionaires, a reminder that this is what happened to income inequality in this country once the tax rate for top earners was slashed after 1980. Trickle down does not work and top earners' priority is themselves.

There is a very high probability that Tulsi Gabbard’s friend, Bashar Al Assad, was killed last night.
This is Tulsis nightmare scenario… her hearing for DNI will be BRUTAL and she won’t get in

It is clear from his interview today that Trump is going to expect Bondi and Patel to investigate and prosecute his political opponents. Three questions:
How will the media cover?
What will pro-democracy leaders and orgs do?
Most important: Who will stand up and who will obey?

With the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad, Tulsi Gabbard’s chance of being confirmed as Trump’s Director of National Intelligence has fallen to ZERO. The only question is whether the Syrian rebels will release the secret files on Tulsi before or after her confirmation hearing.
