“A single-payer universal health care system could cover every American, save more than 100,000 lives a year, and still cost $1 trillion less than the system it would replace, according to a new preprint study led by researchers at the Yale School of Public Health.” ysph.yale.edu/news-article...

This is all entirely the GOPs fault, they have enabled Trump the whole time. They could have shut this down after January 6th, shown actual leadership& morality instead The world is burning and they are too weak to stand up to a demented, diminishing clown. Pathetic

Virginia: early voting for the redistricting amendment is happening now through April 18. Protect your voting power and help level the playing field ahead of the midterm elections by voting YES today or on Election Day, April 21.

I’m 41 years old, I was 17 when we went to war in Afghanistan, then Iraq, 37 when we left. My son is 17, and we just started a war in Iran I’ve seen this story before. We will not allow another 20 years and a whole new generation left with the devastation of another pointless regime change war.

They spent billions on regime change in Venezuela and left the Maduro's head of torture in charge. They are now spending billions on regime change in Iran, knowing the most likely outcome will be harder line leadership. We do not have serious people running our country.

CNN reporting that the strikes on Iran tonight are joint US and Israeli strikes. Which means Donald Trump should be impeached for a third time. What he has done tonight is illegal under the US constitution and the UN charter.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Three years and one month from today, I’m going to grab a pickax and pull those letters off that building, but I’m going to need help holding the ladder. Are you in? Applying for my carpenter’s card today, so it’ll be a union job!!!

It must be said- green bean casserole and all things involving cream of whatever soup are an abomination. It’s a feast, a celebration why make sad 1/2 assed food? Also rolls are unnecessary, why waste valuable stomach space when rolls can be had any time?

“It is clear with this decision that VA has callously put political calculations and adherence to unscientific executive orders above its obligations to provide care to veterans,” lawmakers wrote in a letter to the Department of Veterans Affairs.

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50. California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections. Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

The rules have changed. Mike Johnson wants to wait until the official results come in October 14th to swear in Grijalva.

Grijalva: I was looking at the example of now-Representative Walkinshaw from Virginia, who was elected two weeks ago Tuesday. The following Wednesday—less than 24 hours later—he was sworn in, with unofficial results. So for me, apparently the rules have now changed in just two weeks.

Fuck Texas.

More women have nearly bled to death during miscarriage under Texas’ abortion ban. Experts say the trend paints a troubling picture of the harms of unnecessary delays in care. “This is striking,” one doctor said. “The trend is very clear.” (Published July)
