On this #Juneteenth and every day, amplify these voices so they can be heard. Learn from them. Be uncomfortable as we try to build a better community.
Screenshot of a list of the 27 specific grievances against King George III in the Declaration of Independence. Donald Trump's regime has committed at least 16 of them in whole or in part, highlighted in yellow and listed below: "1. He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. 2. He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only. 3. He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither [Partial] 4. He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers. 5. He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance. 6. He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures. 7. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power. 8. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation: 9. For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world: 10. For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent: 11. For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury: 12. For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences: 13. [Partial], abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments: 14. He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us. 15. [Partial], and destroyed the lives of our people. 16. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us [Partial]"
The Declaration of Independence specifies 27 grievances with King George III and Britain.
Donald Trump has committed at least 16 of those same offenses.

Trump wants to look strong. What he doesnโt understand is that true power comes from the people. And today, weโre going to prove it with thousands of peaceful protests: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #nokings

Hands Off Our Medicaid
#MomSky
Medicaid pays 60 percent of long-term careโmore than any other source! What if your child or family member is in an accident and needs long term care? Why are we sacrificing for billionaires?!!
Hands off our Medicaid!

Fighting back begins with calling things exactly what they are.
The US government is spending $6M of our tax dollars to send Venezuelans to an atrocious slave prison.
Leavitt says itโs โpennies on the dollar.โ
Thatโs not deportation, itโs human trafficking, on the cheap, apparently.

I was already interested in this book, but the fact that Zuckerberg has been so desperate to shut it down whets my appetite ever more.
And the subtitle? I canโt think of a more apt description of our current moment.
Yes, I'm very lucky for not having to pay that bill.

Medicaid is under attack. Here's my story. As a young wife and new mom, my son was a micro-preemie. He spent 5 months in the NICU before dying in my arms. His final bill was $1.2 million. Medicaid automatically took over and I'm forever grateful, especially with funeral costs, too. #MomSky
