Imagine being given a terminal diagnosis of ALS & having this regime threaten to gut medical research targeting your disease, pull back on vital support resources/services that provide dignity of care, & limiting/discontinuing telehealth. There are days I hear my brother screaming from his grave.

Fight or give up. That’s all we’ve got and if we resign ourselves to these horrors then they win. Not on my watch. I might be in my late sixties but I will not leave this earth until I see them face the consequences of their actions.

If as white people we’re tired of being “lectured“, tough titties! Read and reflect on this 👇🏼 🧵. Be willing to get uncomfortable. Stop running from confrontation. Use that unearned white privilege to the benefit of OTHERS. Stop whining, doom-talking, and “do something” shouting. Get in the fight!

White people need to talk to other white people. It is entirely up to the whites to move the needle on their end.

Let me be clear: racism and antisemitism are rampant on *both* sides of the aisle.

Your twentysomething niece has fallen for the okie doke just as easily as your Boomer uncle.

Meiselas: How do you see yourself in that race versus Graham Platner?

Mills: We’ve run people against Susan Collins before, and she won because we ran people who were untested… I’m the only one in the race who’s actually won an election

Every morning you wake up knowing your only job for the day is to lie about everything, do nothing, and say you haven’t yet seen, heard, or been informed on any and every issue asked of you. This man is soulless and his spine is comprised of watered down vegetable based gelatin.

FOX: You said last week that you would swear in Grijalva whenever she wants. She has written a letter to your office. You have not sworn her in. Doesn't your resistance add fuel to the fire that this is about Epstein?

MIKE JOHNSON: No. This is another partisan manufactured thing

Chatbots and social media can inspire, educate, and connect, but they can also exploit, mislead, and endanger our kids.

That's why I'm signing legislation to strengthen the state's current protections for children online and create safeguards for emerging technology like AI.
