There’s an urgent need for blood in the aftermath of the Brown University shooting

If you can give, please do

If you can’t, please spread the word

Its terrifying to think how bad this shooting might be if they need an urgent call for blood, but the more people donating the more lives we can save
I am a student at Brown in communication with a friend at RIBC.

There is an urgent need for blood donations to support RI. Donations in NY, NJ, MN, NB, DE or NJ can help supply RI.

Spread the word.

From a tweet today by Hakeem Jeffries, House Minority Leader: "Mike Johnson just released a toxic Republican Healthcare plan that hurts everyday Americans.

It fails to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits that expire this month.

And is a deeply unserious proposal."

Trump administration officials are using the McCarran Act from the 1950s to target immigrants and calling political opponents "the enemy from within."

A Cold War historian warns these tactics mirror 1950s McCarthyism and its devastating social harm. buff.ly/ExB8d7K
Pentagon investigation of Sen. Mark Kelly revives Cold War persecution of Americans with supposedly disloyal views
President Donald Trump and his supporters cast their domestic opponents as disloyal, traitorous or worse, rather than seeing dissent as part of democracy.
