Much of the current shutdown is about our failing US healthcare system. Yet, there are also success stories. Community Healthcare Centers, like our own Heritage Health, are a great success story. Their funding is under threat. #cda #kootenaicounty #healthcare

Our service members face double the suicide risk of civilians, all because our leaders keep deploying the military without sufficient support or regard for the soldiers as people. Real change is needed. #military #veterans #healthcare

To all those who knew him, Richard Stallings was a thoughtful man who loved his community and was an inspiring leader for all of us. We need more people like him, blue and red together. Farewell Congressman, may your legacy continue for many, many years. #idpol

The Republican supermajority would rather hand out reckless tax giveaways to the wealthy than fight for the next generation. Now, Idaho students will pay the price.

New info on how Idaho’s Republicans intend to “help”. Letting the ACA health insurance support expire will raise rates by 75%. That’s a ~$20,000/yr INCREASE for the benchmark “average 60 yr old couple”. Meanwhile, health insurance in Canada is <$2,000/ yr. #healthcare

Yes, ICE contractors pay their detainees only $1/day in a “voluntary work program” most inmates can’t afford to reject. They also give awful food. These private prisons then get paid $165 per inmate per day. All on your tax $$. #ICE #justice #corruption

An ICE contractor worth billions fights to pay detainees as little as $1 a day to work • Louisiana Illuminator

The $4 billion company continues to resist having to pay detainees more for cleaning facilities where the government has forced them to live.

This is illegal under Article 2(4) of the UN Charter. It’s illegal for the US military to destroy civilian ships, even if they are breaking US law. These military killings of civilians are a war crime. #unitednations #nokings #usmilitary #resist #law

Remember. Antifa = Anti-facist. It’s understandable why the fascist administration in the White House might be confused. After all, Trump refused to visit the American graves in Normandy. He also calls our brave soldiers “losers”. We vociferously disagree! #resist #nokings #antifacist
