🚨ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME??

Mike Johnson waited 50 DAYS to swear in Adelita Grijalva but he swore in Matt Van Epps from Tennessee 48 HOURS after his special election.

Mike Johnson is a piece of shit.

I'm no purist when it comes to participating in things we all know are bad. I try to reduce my harm but I'm an honest hypocrite.

This is the story tonight. Every Dem who was in that room should be telling us what they saw.
Himes: "What I saw in that room was one of the most troubling things I've seen in my time in public service ... any American who sees the video that I saw will see the US military attacking shipwrecked sailors."

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream.

Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads.

Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

Fentanyl. Drug Overdoses, including Fentanyl, are not even in the top 20 causes of death in the USA. Cancer, Diabetes, Covid, Heart Disease all in the top 10, and all have had their research funding cut. They aren't murdering just Venezuelans. However they are killing us much slower.

Artist Andriy Yermolenko created a mural in Ternopil showing a child shielding her toys from a Russian missile.

It marks the 19 November strike that killed 35 people, including 7 children.

The mural is a call to strengthen air defense and protect Ukraine and its people.

Save Ukrainian children!

So let’s get even louder:

This is so far a uniquely bi-partisan issue.

If Senators have any integrity, it will becoming increasingly so.

History will judge each of you.

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.

If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.

It’s that simple.

Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.

This is the power of vaccines.

The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

Vaccination programs have played a key role, and GPs remain ‘instrumental’ in boosting screening rates to reach the 2035 target.
