Folks in Joplin should be angry & scared. If trump had been president during the tornado, he would have said that FEMA's assistance was unwarranted
7th District Congressman Eric Burlison won’t bother to engage with his constituents, but I will. I drove fours hours for this meeting and it was standing room only in Joplin, Missouri. #LFG

"TERFism, like all fascist discourses and all imperial and settler-colonial horizons, imagines itself upside-down, as somehow preyed-upon, bullied, colonized, and at risk of genocidal erasure at the hands of the subjugated group it dehumanizes." - @reproutopia.bsky.social
Still thinking about how delusional and unselfaware this JCJ tweet was youtu.be/nCGie8qJVv4

Wild story. A family of asylum seekers, fearing deportation, tried to leave the United States by going to Canada. They were stopped at the exit by U.S. Customs and Border Protection and detained for THREE WEEKS in a holding cell meant for no more than 72 hour stays — then released.

Cutting funding for a Bird Flu Vaccine will be costlier and deadlier in the long run. Seniors, people w/disabilities & chronic illness like me are high risk. Our populations always suffer the most. But an administration hell bent on cutting Medicaid for low-income people doesn't care about genocide!

Folks have many questions about the General Strike U.S., understandably. So hopefully we can address some of those in this post. First - security. Here's a thread on staying safe re: the Strike Card. Additionally, we are making the phone # optional on the updated strike card, so stay tuned. 🧵
Q: “Can I make up a name or phone number when signing the #strike card?” A: We don’t want to encourage using fake information as an effort to reduce spam sign-ups. But, we DO understand some citizens’ desires to stay private in their endeavors. So we have a few solutions to share below…

ACOG is "extremely disappointed" by HHS's announcement to no longer recommend COVID vaccination during pregnancy. ACOG affirms the vaccine's safety & benefits for pregnant people & infants, stating the science hasn't changed.

Update: reports today that multiple legal observers were arrested today in New York at two separate immigration courts, for allegedly “obstructing” ICE. Not only that, apparently some immigration courts are barring the public from attending hearings. This mess is escalating fast.
Immigration court arrests continued across the nation yesterday (and are likely ongoing today). Yesterday, in NYC, 30 ICE officers swarmed the immigration court, holding lists of names of people to arrest. All were dutifully attending their immigration hearings and many had pending asylum claims.

Actually thinking that the mutual aid we're setting up to survive will allow us to unionize and strike. A general strike is the only thing that will bring about real change. A general strike is how we overthrow the oligarchs
Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages. Medicare for all, paid family leave, universal childcare... This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.
