Military wife (ret. veteran). Health information/informatics professional and academic (ret). Love my DH/children/grandson, gardening, traveling, equestrian sports, tennis, golf, and music.
I’m here!!! Instead of there!!! I never posted much on Twitter, just have an account I use more for reposting professional news and promotion of the college where I retired. I also had fun liking posts of like minded and blocking trolls and bots. This place fits me better! Hi!
"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little."
—FDR, 1937
-A living wage
-Guaranteed healthcare
-The right to join a union
-The right to vote
-The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family
-The right for you and your family to live free from gun violence
These are the foundations of real freedom.
There is no longer a Republican Party.
There are Libertarians, Democrats and MAGA.
Get rid of the nomenclature, Republican, entirely.
It is dead. Has been. Use your words.

The only way that good leaders are able to comeback is
We have to put the bad leaders in jail.
We have to hold these people accountable.
Crimes were committed
Heinous crimes.
These people cannot be allowed to just walk off into the sunset.
Nothing changes if we allow that.

Arizona must stop enforcing abortion restrictions that predate and contradict a 2024 voter-approved constitutional amendment guaranteeing abortion rights, a judge ordered in a ruling released Friday.
🚨ENOUGH!!
impeach/25th amendment! NOW!!
if anyone at my office posted what he posted...they would be fired on the spot.!🤬
but it's ok for a president of the United States to behave in this manner!??
I am mortified.
the pussies in Congress need to resign IMMEDIATELY.
Where are all the idiots who have defended Trump against claims that he's a racist?
He's a virulent racist...and if you support him, you are, too.
I said what I said.
Dehumanizing Black people by portraying them as apes is one of the oldest, most explicit racist tropes in history, used to justify slavery, segregation, and violence.
This isn’t accidental. It’s deliberate. And anyone defending it is telling you exactly who they are.
For the record: I will not send another cent to Kristi Noem or Stephen Miller while the department they run is shredding the Constitution and murdering American citizens in the streets.
A two-week extension is two weeks too long. I’m voting no.
Trump’s DOJ is protecting so many pedofiles including one that would be interested in a 9-year-old from Brazil. These disgusting criminals should be in jail. @fernandez.house.gov
Let’s be clear: when the Trump administration kills or stalls energy generation projects, that’s the White House choosing to make your electricity more expensive. Americans deserve better.
Our founders, though deeply flawed, understood that democracy requires an informed citizenry and a government accountable to it people. That’s why the press is the only profession protected by the Constitution. It’s also why autocrats and oligarchs seek to control and destroy it.
Trump has built a militia of criminals and sociopaths that has a larger budget than our whole military. The reason is he wants them to help him stay in office. He wants them loyal to only him.
HELL. YEAH.
Give it up for Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson for putting ICE on notice by signing an order to ensure that trump's violent thugs are held accountable for their aggression.
MORE OF THIS!!!
They’re taking children from Minnesota and locking them up like criminals in detention camps in Texas.
For the love of God, send our kids home and bring an end to this nightmare.

Dr Oz: "If we could get the average American to start working a year earlier, right out of high school, or a year later -- not retire -- or work better during their lifetime because they're healthy, it would generate about $3 trillion to the US economy. That would more than remove the debt."
Giving ICE body cameras doesn’t make us more safe. None of us trusts the government to be honest with saving the footage. Unless it goes to a secure cloud as it’s being recorded that can’t be corrupted, it’s not a win. ICE OUT!
Last night, GOP Senator Rand Paul went on national TV to flatly reject DHS's lies about the Pretti execution:
"My advice to [DHS], if they're watching:
If you come into [our hearing] and try to justify that [Pretti] was assaulting a police officer, that cannot be acceptable."
I feel like there is no such a thing as financial aid anymore.
I don't think giving my kid a loan to cover 2% of her education costs for the year is really going to help her out, or me.
You read that right, 2%. Now she just needs to figure out the other 98%.
