Just over here appreciating people who care about making the world a better place, finding puns or rhymes if I can, and occasionally getting irritated by deliberately slow walkers

Has any new drug saved your life or the life of someone you know? If so, you can thank the NIH, which Trump and Musk are illegally destroying, in violation both of the law creating the NIH, and appropriations laws telling NIH what money to spend and how

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.
If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.
If you're under 30, the number is 100%.
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
Theodore Roosevelt

Young person with I/DD and their support worker. Blue background with white text that reads “Medicaid Cuts Harm Disability Services.”
Blue background with white text that reads “Medicaid is the primary payer of long-term services and supports for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD).”
Blue background with white text that reads “Congress must preserve Medicaid and ensure people with I/DD have access to community-based services.”
Medicaid disability services help people with I/DD to live full and independent lives in their communities. To keep the promise of community living for people with disabilities a reality, we must invest in—not divest from—the Medicaid program. #SaveMedicaid
