Short health professional lacking respect for authority. Don’t describe me as “spunky;” please use “pugnacious.” First generation American; never been a flag waver, but just thinking of the coup in DC makes me sick.

Post from Gavin Newsom: Gavin Newsom & @GavinNewsom Mike Johnson would hate for you to know that nearly 40% of his district is on Medicaid. Or that 1.6 million Louisianans — about 35% of the state — rely on it. It would be terrible if this information went viral.

Making America IRRELEVANT.
rufusgifford Trump's "America First" foreign policy is not just an abysmal failure, it has weakened us geopolitically to levels we haven't seen since the Great Depression. Jostein Hauge @haugejostein The global perception of China is now more positive than that of the United States. Meanwhile, the global perception of the United States has fallen to levels similar to Russia's. Graph: Net perception of global powers Graph shows US positive perception dropping below that of China, almost meeting a gradually increasing perception of Russia.

Another repost that needed alt text added.
Text window reading “NEW: Trump just called the new Syrian President a "young, attractive, tough guy" with a "very strong past". That past was KILLING US troops, civilians, women, and children. He was in Al-qaeda. We put a $10M bounty on his head. LET THAT SINK IN.
