I’m going to make it positive and say the things I like: Art, music, cats, dogs, friendly people, but not unwanted DM’s. Not a fan of bullies, especially ones that are in positions of power.

Sliwa getting a flu shot: This could be very embarrassing. I’m supposed to be a tough guy, right? Mamdani: I can hold your hand. Sliwa: What happens if I faint? Mamdani: I got you. Doctor: You’re in great hands, literally. New Yorkers can find free flu shots and locations at nyc.gov/healthmap

Here's how we get Medicare for All done: Make Medicare whole (no one can keep all the parts straight!) Include vision, dental, and hearing. Begin extending to more people, starting with children. We arrive at Medicare for All, which means great Medicare for everyone.

Trump + DOGE + GOP Congress have: 🔬 Frozen $3B in NIH/NSF grants → 74K patients lost clinical trial access 🏥 Passed a $911B Medicaid cut → 5M+ projected to lose coverage 🎓 Cut half of Dept. of Ed → 90% of its research staff fired It's a coordinated attack on science, health care, education.

For most of us, seeing the Klan 2.0, a.k.a. Patriot Front, march through Washington, D.C., unchallenged by authorities overshadowed any celebration of America’s 250th anniversary. My ancestors lived through this. And no one today can say with a straight face that racism is behind us.
