@schumer.senate.gov apparently you think we're all stupid. None of the Dems who voted with Republicans tonight are up for reelection in 2026. Coincidence? No. You had them vote that way - it's how politics at the national level works.If citizens chose Senate leadership you'd be out on your ass.

@schumer.senate.gov you betrayed every person who was trying to figure out how to get through this horrible time to support the fight for the ACA subsidies. We were banding together to take care of each other. You took care of yourself. A more pathetic display has never been seen. Weak little man.

make people feel stupid. Their mistake is relying on Herr Trump and Fox News for their knowledge. So, fueled by caffeine and curiosity, I decided to bury them under historical and academic facts. No drama or recriminations, just facts...

Today's neighborhood classroom focused on the role of tariffs in the Great Depression. We explored the legal requirements of importers and the pattern of raised prices to consumers as a consequence of higher pricing to retailers and importers. Then we explored the 1930 Smoots-Hawley Tariff Act...

I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope. She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive. But the FDA recently denied its approval. Now, her health hangs in the balance. Please share her story & urge the FDA to reconsider. 🧵

Jan Schakowsky, the incumbent in my race, will reportedly not seek re-election. So it seems like a good time to reintroduce myself — I’m Kat Abughazaleh and I’m running for Congress.

CALL TO ACTIVISM
@calltoactivism.bsky.social

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Weak. Pathetic. Embarrassing. What exactly is it going to take for these people to stand up for what's right?

Gotta do what we can. Activism is new to me and I don't know what the heck I'm doing, but I know I can participate in things like this.

Sorry for the desperation in my posts today. Doom scrolling at the veterinary office. A dog got hit by a car in front of my house today. I'm feeling overwhelmed.

I think countries around the world should levy tariffs specifically on Tesla in response to US tariffs, as well as banning Twitter as a national security threat driving a wedge between our co-dictators may be the most effective thing they can do

Maybe this would be a good time to publish real stories about real people suffering under the bad one's crazy actions. How about in their own words and without political focus?
