Today someone told me that accepting disability payments from the government was “violence” against the tax payer.

That they don’t “consent” to supporting us, and we should be ashamed.

That if you don’t have family, friends or a church to care for you, you should die.

This is eugenics.

Statement from Tristan Kern de Gonzales Husband of Jonathan Joss My husband Jonathan Joss and I were involved in a shooting while checking the mail at the site of our former home. That home was burned down after over two years of threats from people in the area who repeatedly told us they would set it on fire. We reported these threats to law enforcement multiple times and nothing was done. Throughout that time we were harassed regularly by individuals who made it clear they did not accept our relationship. Much of the harassment was openly homophobic. When we returned to the site to check our mail we discovered the skull of one of our dogs and its harness placed in clear view. This caused both of us severe emotional distress. We began yelling and crying in response to the pain of what we saw. While we were doing this a man approached us. He started yelling violent homophobic slurs at us. He then raised a gun from his lap and fired. Jonathan and I had no weapons. We were not threatening anyone. We were grieving. We were standing side by side. When the man fired Jonathan pushed me out of the way. He saved my life. Jonathan is my husband. He gave me more love in our time together than most people ever get. We were newlyweds. We picked Valentines Day. We were in the process of looking for a trailer and planning our future. He was murdered by someone who could not stand the sight of two men loving each other. I was with him when he passed. I told him how much he was loved. To everyone who supported him, his fans, his friends, know that he valued you deeply. He saw you as family. My focus now is on protecting Jonathan’s legacy and honoring the life we built together. If your concern is how someone coped with trauma or how loudly they speak when recounting injustice and being ignored by authorities then you never truly cared about my husband. Jonathan saved my life. I will carry that forward. I will protect what he built. Tristan Kern de Gonzales

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today.

I'm so angry.

US Department of Labor pauses Job Corps center operations

Karoline Leavitt said the Trump regime is pushing for the trades while defunding Harvard.

Now, they’re defunding Job Corps.

They aren’t advocating for trades people. They want uneducated folks with no skills to work for any wage and any condition

Notice how Zelensky conducted his strike in Russia WITHOUT using Signal chat.

Waking up to Ukraine absolutely shredding Russian military and air force
Is amazing

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." 

—Louis Brandeis

Early rumors are that up to 40 Russian strategic bombers were destroyed in one of the most audacious operations I’ve ever seen.

Get fucked, Vlad.

This message is for the dumbest motherfuckers on the planet, Trump supporters. This is what righteous indignation sounds like. 😳👇

CBS reporter Scott Pelley:

This is a warning that I fear many will look back on in five or six years and think “he was so right”.

Sounds like fun!

AOC: The math is not adding up. Their claim is that one million undocumented people are on Medicaid. So why are they trying to cut 13.7 million Americans off their healthcare?

Trump's team has spent more than $10 million having images of him with Sean "P. Diddy" Combs bleached from the internet.

It would be such a shame if this made the round.

Hello friends, can you help me get an added option on this platform?. It’s obvious my doing it alone is not getting the message through. If enough of us start posting this edit meme they will act on it!
Thanks ☮️💜

This hits hard.

The Survival of Democracy Depends on Our Willingness to Fight The Survival of Democracy Depends on Our Willingness to Fight Justice Riggs is right. We should not have to fight for democracy. But the reality is that we must.

The fight for democracy is the fight of our generation. It may not be the battle we wanted, but it is the one we face. The state of our democracy and the future of our country depends on our willingness to take risks, ignore the naysayers, weather setbacks and fight fiercely for democracy.

Right now, Republicans in Congress are trying to push through a bill that would put millions of Americans at risk of losing their health care.

They want to cut federal funding for Medicaid, take away tax credits that help more people afford coverage, and raise costs for working class families.

MAGA isn’t a cult - it’s a very serious political ideology that sells $99 NFTs of their prophet in a cape.

You are the BEST! Followed you from the beginning at the other place. Your courage and eloquence is unmatched. However, somehow, you have assholes who do not like you! Were you aware? 🤣😂 obviously joking. Here is a bad troll for a laugh. @cherikeejack.bsky.social

And the steals just keep on coming ... the worst version of Sisyphus

The only art of the deal here is the insider trading he and his buddies engaged in. How many billions have they made since this phony trade war started?

This sums it up.
