The human cost of Trump's gutting of USAID: By the time Tor Top’s mother was sick with cholera, the nearby clinic had been shuttered for weeks. He bundled her into a canoe & paddled toward the nearest hospital, 8 hours away. Less than halfway into the journey, his mother died.

Yeah, Republicans, it's the damn guns.
You can deny it, hide from it, refuse to acknowledge it, and try and distract from it, but that's simply the truth.
And if you won't admit this and won't commit to doing anything about it, then yeah, it's you too.
