Optics ain’t good on this 🤦🏻‍♀️
Are you frigging kidding me? Medicaid activists bound to wheelchairs have been arrested for staging a sit in at the Russel Senate Office building. These people’s live literally depend on Medicaid that Senate Republicans want to cut. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid Unbelievable‼️‼️

I just realized those would be great passwords to keep out gestapo eyes …
Psst,
Had to join
a secret society
in these
trumpian times.
Have code words
like "please" &
"thank you."
Look after
each other.
Known by many names,
but we like
"civilization."
Still taking members
but keep it
on the hush-hush.

Freeland: "If these tariffs are put in place, it is going to hurt Americans ... your grocery prices are gonna go up, bc you know what you need to grow food in the US? You need fertilizer. 80% of it comes from Canada and you're gonna be a 25% tax on it? ... the WSJ is right. This is dumb."

We can work around degenerate Trump. Please, everyone, promote the Ukrainian donation site - all donations go directly to the Ukrainian treasury to fight the Russians and rebuild Ukraine. Imagine if 10 million people around the world donated $100/month. (= $1 Billiom/month)
