On Bluesky for the same reasons you are. Out there, I'm a medical social worker having hard conversations. In here, I want to make sense of this world, and I appreciate what you have to say about it.

Like Jon from Florida says, Americans are only one accident away from not being able to afford groceries or other daily expenses.
Health care is essential. Republicans’ refusal to extend the tax credits that help lower the costs of health insurance will mean more people choose to go without it.

It is true that no one has grasped this scope.
But there are ways to deal with it.
First, track the way that Kristi Noem is converting it to personal grift, like her propaganda campaign.
Next, illustrate how this is a funding shift, from things Americans like to body snatching they hate.

The news has entirely failed to grasp the unprecedented scope of the ICE and DHS budgets. Nothing like it in modern history. A galaxy of public/private surveillance and caging institutions for $100,000,000,000s unleashed on a public that will be forever changed. www.brennancenter.org/our-work/res...

Call your lawmakers and keep watch on when the proposed Dept of Ed rules are posted for public comment, re new loan limits on key degree programs.
The loan limits will reduce student access to professions that gird our nation's healthcare and public service systems. Speak out!

How about we pay them the professional wages they're worth, instead of kneecapping the loans programs?

A new federal directive by Mehmet Oz allows the sharing of Medicaid applicant data with DHS effective immediately, rescinding previous “interagency integrity” firewalls. This forces mixed-status families into an impossible calculus: access life-saving medical care or remain invisible to enforcement.

Effective today, a new federal directive allows immigration enforcement to access state healthcare enrollment data, TPS ends for thousands of Burmese war refugees, plus Kristi Noem explainer video.

The DOE will remove the "professional" designation from graduate degrees eg nursing, PAs and social work. This effectively limits the $$ students may borrow, making the programs unaffordable -- meaning fewer future providers. Call your legislators to fight this. Our kids deserve better.

Kristi Noem has told everyone that there are no U.S citizens being detained or deported & that’s a Blatant Lie like most of what comes out of her mouth. This is just a very short list of U.S. citizens that have been detained since January.
