Fascism is seeing people like Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert being fired for speaking truth to power against repugnant fascists and their criminal immoral actions.

The US satire cartoon show South Park secured a five-year deal worth $1.5 billion with Paramount Global. They began their season with this clip, challenging Trump to sue them.

UPDATE: We just forced the Oversight Committee to subpoena the Epstein files — a massive win for transparency, accountability, and healing.

Pam Bondi must release them immediately.

I will never stop fighting for my fellow survivors.

As Heather Cox Richardson writes, The Epstein story is about more than the sex trafficking of girls. It's also about rich and privileged people evading accountability for breaking the law." People like Donald Trump, in other words.

As a Canadian it’s hard for me to comprehend a country that allows its citizens to be bankrupt because they got sick.

That allows people to go without healthcare because they don’t have money or insurance.

Adding medical debt to a credit report is exceedingly cruel.
Medical debt shouldn’t ever be a thing in a developed country. No other Western industrialized nation has it.

I'm sorry, nine HUNDRED former DOJ lawyers all signed this letter opposing Emil Bove's nomination to be an appellate federal judge?

Unpopular (evidence based) opinion:

Disabled people who cannot work should receive higher than the minimum wage.

Because being disabled costs a lot more money… and given the minimum wage is meant to be the lowest amount a non-disabled person should survive on… it makes sense.

Yes, young people might need walking aids and/or wheelchairs.

Yes, young people can have chronic and lifelong conditions.

Yes, young people can get diseases and conditions that "typically" affect older people.

"The Nazis... imagined their targets would self-deport. Once the myth of self-deportation collapsed, they turned to more punitive measures. On Tuesday, Noem similarly noted the Everglades camp was meant to frighten immigrants into self-deporting. 'If you don’t,' she said, 'you may end up here.'"
Opinion | Don’t call it ‘Alligator Alcatraz.’ Call it a concentration camp.
This facility’s purpose fits the classic model, and its existence points to serious dangers ahead for the country.

You wouldn’t vacation in Dachau in 1935. Don’t vacation in Florida in 2025.
We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.

What, exactly, are we celebrating this Fourth of July?

Our cutting off healthcare to the needy to enrich the greedy?

Our new concentration camps?

Our dying economy?

Our ditching due process?

Our corruption?

Our broken Congress?

Our corrupt Supreme Court?

Our ridiculous buffoon President?

Hey, so I am semi-retired from disability advocacy, but in light of what happened today, I want to talk about what it actually means to support disabled people.

Lots of people thought that, until today, when you become disabled, there is a safety net waiting.

That has never been true.

Also it's literally a lie.

They're counting on "genuinely Disabled" people not being able to keep up with the administrative burden (paperwork and possible in-person appointments) to keep their Medicaid.

(Thread)
So basically what they're doing is delaying (indefinitely?) implementation of a couple of rules from the Biden administration that were going to make it easier for dual-eligible people to maintain the Medicaid (and MSP) coverage we are eligible for.

It’s dehumanizing & discriminatory to say the “genuinely disabled” don’t have to worry about Medicaid cuts

Everyone needs to worry about millions of people losing their healthcare

Invisible disabilities are real. Mental health disabilities are real. Saying some are “genuine” infers others are not

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

The richest country in the world can afford Medicaid.

The richest country in the world can afford food assistance.

There’s no reason for the cruel and dehumanizing cuts in this big bill.

It’s fascism. It’s cruelty for cruelty’s sake. It’s a cull to accelerate ethnic cleansing.

Rep. Dean: "The senators voted on this not knowing exactly what was in the bill. I bet they loved the part about no sales tax on silencers. Really, folks? We want to make silencers more plentiful in this country at the behest of the representative who owns gun stores? Conflicts of interest abound."
