Lots of people falling for this dude's right-wing propaganda.

Costco has never sold mifepristone pills.

This "story" is nothing more than a weak attempt to generate outrage at Costco.

It's like saying McDonald's doesn't sell mifepristone pills due to "activist pressure".

It's just not true.

White women are far more effective in upholding racial patriarchy than any other demographic including white men. Their task is to preserve racist girlboss feminism, hold the center and prevent truly radical changes from taking hold. These ww love having power over anyone

Remember a few months ago when lots of folks were saying not to be disruptful while protesting, cause that's what the administration wants, so he can declare martial law?

Well, Big Balls is proof he didn't need a reason, he'd just make one up.

This was going to happen no matter what. Keep at it.

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

what booker is doing right now is an example of what i mean when i say things like β€œwe need more ambition right now.” there is room in american politics right now for people with ambition to take big stands and reap the rewards. he’s doing it!

A handwritten postcard addressed to β€œPresident (For Now) Donald J Trump” at the 1600 Pennsylvania Ave White House address. The message reads β€œFelon 47, Please go with Elon to Mars and STAY THERE!

Prior to 2015/tr*mp my mom was a lifelong R who’d grown up in the deeep red rural sticks of southcentral PA. She’d been gradually trending left since I came out πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ but went full Bernie bro in 2016. Today she mailed this postcard to the White House comment line (β€œhe talks like he’s 8 so I did tooβ€πŸ˜‚)

There’s already a lawsuit in Texas about section 504 which is the accommodations policy for schools. It includes several other states and if taken to the federal level it would massively destabilize the ADA and protections/ equal access for disabled people

Today is the 35th anniversary of the Capitol Crawl, in which disabled activists discarded their mobility aids at the foot of the Capitol steps to climb them in support of passage of the Americans with Disabilities Ac. Jennifer Keelan-Chaffins, 8, told reporters "I'll take all night if I have to!"

They do not want to stop taking corporate money. She wants to reform the system to give power back to the people and limit corporations and most importantly lobbyists. There are many comfortable with the status quo. This is why they dont like her. Well fuck them. @aoc.bsky.social we need you

AOC resonates with everyday Americans that are fighting to survive. She's down there with all of us trying to fight for our rights, freedoms, and against the billionaires trying to rule our country. They're scared of us all uniting because there's power in numbers.
