We love #ecoenclose!! Much better option, for so many reasons.

Lots of small businesses use this company. Take note of what you’re supporting when you buy from them.

A three-panel political cartoon by Gritty20202, titled "Gritty is the Way," compares historical and contemporary events. Each panel features an authority figure saying, "I'm just following orders." The first panel, labeled "1830s American West," shows a U.S. soldier in a cavalry uniform with a Native American man in traditional clothing looking distressed. The second panel, labeled "1940s Nazi Germany," depicts a Nazi officer with a prisoner in a striped concentration camp uniform. The third panel, labeled "Present-Day USA," shows an ICE officer in a tactical vest with a distressed woman and child clinging to each other.

Abolish ICE.

Now more than ever.

I work at NIH. The fear among staff is palpable. "It felt like all functions of our job had just been completely stripped away, like the system had been completely crippled."

Agreeing to speak on the condition of anonymity, one NIH researcher describes in chilling detail the “chaos” of the Trump administration’s first days.

He is flooding the zone. He knows that media will cover everything he does. Getting people upset. Which helps give him more coverage of the upset people. All just talking about him.

Trump administration suspension of global HIV treatment program sparks chaos and fear of lost lives A move by the Trump administration to freeze funding for PEPFAR, the widely heralded international HIV/AIDS program, is putting countless lives at immediate risk, experts say.
