Unless the Senate votes no, devastating Medicaid cuts will become law—kicking children off of their insurance, shrinking lunch programs, and cutting school nurses and counselors.
Tell your senator: vote NO.

There have been a number of missed opportunities—the 15-16 primaries, the aftermath of Charlottesville, the first impeachment, the legal battles, and more. Where is the line is a good question? War? Global economic depression?

But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.

I think we have a winner.
What an embarrassment that our president is a bully and disrespectful of another country’s president. Our president isn’t intelligent & is unable to participate in respectful discourse on a global stage.

Be rebellious. But rest as needed.
Joy is a form of anarchy in an administration that spews hate and fear.
Do the good you want to see in the world.
And fight like hell to hold onto your compassion for those who deserve it.
You get to choose who to be kind to.

Leaders seized control of the media, targeted marginalized groups—including the elderly, disabled, and those with differing beliefs—and silenced anyone deemed subversive to their agenda. History is repeating itself, and the consequences are dire.

F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby is still an excellent commentary on society. Not much has changed. The eyes of Dr. T.J. Eckelberg are still watching.

ICYMI — the same day @GovBillLee called for a special session to rush his vouchers through (tying them to hurricane relief aid) we learn 20 TN (GOP) lawmakers got subpoenas for a corruption trial @VoteBo says is linked to “voucher bribery”

🔥 WATCH: “Withholding hurricane relief funding to garner support for vouchers? That is not the right way.”
A KNOX COUNTY dad rips @GovBillLee for his scheme to get his voucher scam passed — says “wildly unpopular” vouchers have lost badly even in Trump states like Kentucky 🎯
We disagree with them on a lot, but when they’re right, they’re right 👇🏽
And the numbers will only go up as @GovBillLee bribes legislators with more and more ways to get them to sell out public schools.
