I had to compose myself before posting—because this breaks a part of my soul.

If you’re a contractor with a segregation policy, say it loud—so non-white dollars don’t fund your business. It won’t go how you think.

And if anyone uncovers businesses doing this, put them on blast.

I am honored to have been welcomed to a local clinic for Medicaid Day of Action. Medicaid is vital for millions of families, children, seniors, & underserved communities. We should prioritize preventative care and get vaccinated for a healthier future. #MedicaidDayofAction

Over 100,000 seats are up for grabs in 2025 — governors, mayors, city councils, state representatives, judges, school boards, and more.

Taking back our power starts now.

The richest man in the world took over $5K out of this guy's bank account, claiming he was dead. The richest man in the world said he was saving money.

He was not dead.
I found a ‘dead’ person collecting Social Security in Seattle
“Dead” Ned Johnson turns out to be very much alive. It took him weeks to convince the system he was breathing and to start clawing his benefits back.

"I want to keep boycotting Amazon, but I also want to support indie authors. How do I do that?"

Many indie authors have their books on Barnes & Noble & Kobo! There are also places like Smashwords & Campfire that are almost all indie books! Itchio now has a THRIVING LGBTQ Indie Book Scene.

We need way more of this, please!🔥

Rep. Crockett (D-TX) during the “sanctuary cities” House hearings:

“Has any of you been made aware of any immigrant that has had 34 felony convictions and is still able to roam in your cities?”

It never goes well for the MAGAs when Jasmine is in the room.

Today, we honor the bravery and sacrifice of those who, 60 years ago, marched across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama, risking everything for the right to vote and the promise of true freedom. Their courage paved the way, and it’s on us to keep pushing forward.

Rep. Al Green after Mike Johnson had him removed from Donald Trump's joint session address of Congress:

"I'll accept the punishment. It's worth it to let people know that there's some of us who are going to stand up to against this president's desire to cut Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security...

COLBERT, on Rep. Al Green’s removal:

“Some people questioned why so much muscle was needed to remove an old man with a cane. But it turns out it was for a serious reason. When security searched him, they found that he smuggled in a spine."

Rep. AL GREEN IS A HERO!
US Rep Al Green removed by Trump's Nazi while others sat and watched or jeer at him. He stood up to Trump and told him he had no mandate to disrupt Medicaid for millions of people. Make a list of which politicians you are going to keep. So far it's a short list. #3E #SOTU
