I expect it to affect absolutely everyone, whether they are on an ACA plan or not. Whether they are on Medicaid or not. Health insurance should not be for profit. period.

It is unfuckingconscionable.

What they’re doing here in Chicago, the surrounding suburbs and everywhere they’re going is nauseating.

Good song. Pretty blunt at the end

jessicabruno.bsky.social @jessicabruno.bsky.social · 4d

One of the BEST protest songs and it’s coming from Chicago.

I want to hear this at every rally,
every protest,
blasting from cars on the streets,
from cozy home open windows carried by the crisp autumn breeze, from drunken choruses at open air bars,
& friends walking home!

I want to know how the ICEstapo sleeps at night.

It’s one thing to believe the vile lies of racism, it’s wholly another to willingly invade neighborhoods searching for the next victims to kidnap, to hear their pleas & screams, to physically attack while be insulted by horrified onlookers.

SHAME!

There are hard questions we need to ask ourselves right now. But no matter what this administration is planning, we know who we are—we love democracy & plan to fight (peacefully) for it. In a moment where knowledge is power, here is what you need to know. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Are We the Nazis Now?

Happy Indigenous Peoples Day! ❤️

As a great granddaughter of Sicilian immigrants, I am 💯 in agreement with this statement!

Mother Cabrini Day can absolutely be another day to celebrate Italian American heritage and ALL immigrants!

1/ Small acts of defiance…✊

Yesterday, my husband and I went out to dinner with our BFFs to a local diner. It was still early bird special time so you know it was filled with old white people.

2/ There was a loudmouth old guy in there talking about Black people but using the Italian name for the N word (yes, it was shocking) and about Democrats and how the country is falling apart and how the Democrats don’t even know what fascists are. This guy would not shut up.

3/ So our friend says loudly, I know what a fascist is and then he asks me, do you know what a fascist is? To which I replied equally loudly, I know what a fascist is.

4/ And then all four of us in unison yelled trump is a fascist. That shut that loudmouth up. You didn’t hear a peep out of him after that. You could have heard a pin drop in that place. But the mostly Hispanic waitstaff were smiling. It felt good.

5/ That old geezer was a loudmouth bully who thought because everyone looked like him (old and white, minus the staff) that he could spout his nonsense because everyone agreed with him. He found out differently. Had he kept talking so would we have too. Old people with zero fucks left to give.

Could you imagine having a job where you've called off all but 12 days in 79 days, and still have that job?

Yea me neither.

But the MAGA republican regime thinks that's OK, and if we check their CR, we would probably find they gave themselves raises again.

For doing nothing.
