I'll believe this if/when we see this. DO NOT CAVE DEMOCRATS!

If this is true and happens, it's got to happen before reopening the government or it will be just like Lucy holding the football for Charlie Brown and it will be yanked away.

Promises made by GO☭ are promises NOT kept.

Debt projected to increase next 10 years by JP Morgan. The great GO☭ supporter & bank with lack of accountability in Epstein exploitive fund raising.

Explain in 4th grade terms why I should trust GO☭ & those that support GO☭?

You’re not alone. You’re not broken. You’re still here. And when you protect these forces in yourself, you make it easier for others to protect them too. That ripple effect is how movements survive.

The definition of treat others the way you want to be treated, and instant karma

This is what they get for having so much cruelty over nothing

Over joy, and people showing care for their fellow humans

Continue to fight these thugs with this loving resistance while they implode

Today in Portland, a fed shooting pepper balls from the roof of the ICE facility was so eager to aim for people’s heads, that after shooting one photographer in the head and another in the upper arm, they accidentally shot a DHS agent in the head. This photo shows the moment of impact;

Riot cops standing a street with less-lethal weapons, and one in a gas mask has a cloud of pepper dust around his helmet.

Farmers grow what they grow because of farm policy.

We don’t need all the soy and corn that we grow, but those are the commodities that receive subsidies and markets.

If we want something better, if we want to heal the Earth and grow food, now is the time to do it.

If the GOP thinks they are so "just" in all of their actions what are they afraid of that they want to gerrymander everything?

Blue states can do the same and offset any of their BS.

🧪A good perspective.

Mothers from the 1950s, who saw how polio affected children's lives would like a word.

For every $ spent on the MMR vaccine, the healthcare system saves $13. Now, The direct medical costs of a measles case is $1793. This translates to $~1.79B/yr for Americans.

RFK Jr. says vaccines don’t save lives. He’s wrong

Now RFK Jr. is claiming vaccines don’t actually save lives. Here’s the math to show what he gets wrong.

Set to expire at the end of the year, the ACA federal subsidies are now at the heart of the battle over the US shutdown. Democrats will not back a spending deal that reopens the government unless Republicans renew the subsidies.
