We need to talk about who is dying and why in childbirth in the U.S. 📊

You have likely seen the viral video recently from a distressed pregnant woman; I won't rehash that event again, as it is painful for many.

We must address the systemic issues that often become viral videos.

And they keep coming after our most vulnerable.

Morally repugnant cowards.

It's like political and historical déjà vu. 😵‍💫

Ever since #Mamdani won the NYC Democratic mayoral primary, people have been screeching online:
"But he's a #Muslim! His loyalty is to the #Quran" (which they wilfully know nothing about). 🤬

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is finally set to resume payments. Millions of Americans have received no federal food assistance in November due to the 43-day shutdown, while others received partial funds or full payments between the court battles.

Philadelphia area sheriff, Fred Harran (R), loses re-election to Danny Ceisler (D) over partnership with #ICE.

But he has some different views about that...

Residents of #ColoradoSprings and #CD5, come meet Joe.

I promise y'all he is super down to earth and cares about our community. His community.
This Saturday morning, come have a cup of joe with Joe ahead of the CD-5 Candidate forum. Come chat, hear his vision for the role, tell him what's on your mind and pick his brain about what an effective representative in Congress will do for our district.

And this is why our #POTUS is having daily temper tantrums...

His house of cards is falling.

So honored to march with @reaganforcolorado.bsky.social at this year’s Veterans Day parade!

It was one of those moments where the human side of policy hits you in the chest. 🥹

I will never understand #hoardingwealth. You *literally* cannot take it with you when you die.

Is #ElonMusk a dragon? Is this a simulation for realsies, and he is the #BBEG? Like....

In a dizzying turn of events, #Trump has decided that instead of blatantly ignoring an order, the admin will instead drag their feet like a defiant toddler being told to take a nap.

Professional. Mature. Leadership. 🙄

Hey #Colorado! Did you vote yet?

If not, there’s still time!
#Ballots are due by 7 p.m. on Election Day, Tuesday, Nov. 4th.

I’m opting to drop mine off at one of the official ballot drop boxes in town today. 📮

Folks, NDAs aren't legally binding when your orders are illegal. This is just a scare tactic to get compliance and keep people from going to their lawyers and Congresspeople to expose what's going on.

A lot of Americans don't realize how much #SNAP impacts the #economy.

It may only be "food stamps" to the recipient, but it is real money for the business.

We (collectively) lost the plot.
Got complacent.
And now everything’s a dumpster fire.

But here’s the thing 👉🏼 we still have hands, hearts, and buckets.
So grab one.
There’s work to do.
