3/4 of my grandparents fought in WWII, multiple family members and friends served in Vietnam and Desert Storm. Countless friends and family in OEF and OIF, a (now ex) husband deployed for 13 months during one of the worst years of OIF in Iraq. I volunteered for multiple positions including FRG

I do actually think there is a serious imbalance on this app. A lot of politics and not enough culture. Some of that has to do with the fact that Black Twitter mostly went to Threads.

Watching Israel complain about Tel Aviv being bombed after initiating attacks on Iran is ridiculous. The world needs to be done with being lied to. We already did this ~25 years ago

Little bit of good news for some of us Julie Gonzales is beating John Hickenlooper in early polling for the Colorado Senate primary! I'm going to a meet and greet with her tomorrow.

The level of "Had it" I'm at: I just refused to eat somewhere because they put Hollandaise sauce in a breakfast burrito.

The Republicans are messing with Democratic primaries, especially in Texas right now. My advice: •Look at candidate websites yourself •Follow all the candidates for your area on social media, or at least check their pages on your own. •Look at FEC reports. •Ignore what Republicans say about our

There's a new candidate in the Maine Democratic Senate primary who seems worth checking out. Andrea LaFlamme who has already been working in labor and health policy for years. www.andreaformaine.com

Anyone in data taking Polymarket seriously as a data point in polling needs to get a grip. It's so heavily manipulated and we know this. Please stop

One of my least favorite games in healthcare is when you need help with something and the specialist it's related to says "Talk to the PCP" and the PCP says "Talk to the specialist." One of you needs to be responsible and do the thing.

This midweek mid workday frat boy nonsense is enraging. We are paying these people so much money, and they're mostly screwing around. Waste, fraud, and abuse in profile.

John Davidson deserved to have his disability accommodated. There would have been a ton of creative ways for him to be involved, that didn't create the situation that happened last night. I don't know if he's racist or not, and there's a chance he might not have even ever used that word as a tic

For those who are looking at supporting any of our Democratic candidates in the primaries this year, I really encourage you to look at the difference between Medicare for All and any public buy-in options that candidates are suggesting.Most public buy in options don't meet the standards of single

I've seen many comments and posts that Jasmine Crockett sided with the FCC, is throwing Talarico under the bus, or being petty...and those posts are largely based off write ups of the Jen Psaki interview. It's also false. Please watch her full statement.

The only reasonable answer to this is for every single Warrant Officer to get together and bid the same amount.

If you want to get more involved in politics, and make a difference beyond posting online mobilize.us is one of the resources I use to find volunteer opportunities. You can search by city/state, candidate, or cause. I know there are many opportunities in Texas and North Carolina right now for their

The money illegally collected from tariffs should go back to the American people, not to corporations. That money was ours! The businesses have already been reimbursed when we bought things and paid for the increased costs.

An estimated 45,000-50,000 Americans die each year from not having health insurance, even with what remains of the ACA in place. Medicare for All also changes the Medicare structure to resemble single payer systems in other countries. Today I'll highlight three US Senate candidates who support

Terribly sad that Eric Dane passed. I really think he was underrated as an actor, and ALS is such an awful disease. I think he wanted rest and he has that now.

I don't want to get too into it because it's not entirely my story to tell, but my ex-husband is on 100% disability due to injuries in training and during a deployment in 2008-2009. The VA and SSI money we get for our daughter has kept our whole family afloat while battling her cancer diagnosises.

NEW: ICE has raided dormitories at the Dilley concentration camp to confiscate letters from children per @pabloreports.bsky.social. I have filed a FOIA request for them. @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social: the second we get anything, we will send it to you. 1/ www.muellershewrote.com/p/new-ice-co...

Watching my home state of New Mexico start to lead the way in what states can do against this administration has been so heartwarming! Corruption ran deep there for a long time and it seems to be finally getting worked out.

I had important things to work on the past couple of days, both for the household and writing/posting and volunteering; but my health got in my way and I haven't been able to do any of it. It's so freaking aggravating.

When I'm stressed, or feel helpless doing something that is tangible and proactive helps me. Today I'm phone banking for Jasmine Crockett. I'd love to get 2 more people to sign up with me. We might be in the same session!

🚨 IMPORTANT 🚨

Plastic surgeons: Is there a limit to how many faclifts the skin around the eyes can handle? This question isn't in any way related to the attorney general or her testimony today or anything. I'm just wondering.

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise. BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

There's something deeply wrong with Pam Bondi. Watch her face here

Bondi having a whole meltdown.

The Trump-Epstein Files are the foundation of the Trump-Vance Administration. The two are intrinsically intertwined. If prosecuting the people responsible will bring everything down then that's what needs to happen. The whole thing is a house of cards. We can rebuild, its human nature to do so.

Hickenlooper has been working with Palantir since 2009. He set them up doing surveillance data processing of elementary school children in Denver Public Schools. He has no business representing Colorado anymore.

I'm looking forward to the Bad Bunny concert today. Green Day will be cool too.

Bezos isn't destroying the Washington Post because it isn't profitable. He's destroying the Washington Post because he's calculated that a robust free press threatens the ability of his class to warp society around their interests

More on the ICE facility. 🤬

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself. It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did. ICE MUST GO‼️

Speaking of primaries! Colorado we have caucus and assemblies coming up. If there is a candidate that you are passionate about and want to vote for them in the primary - the first step is to help them get on the ballot through the assembly process.Registered voters meet at the city county,

Alright, let's see what Tuesday has in store.

[#AYACSM] Our next public conversation is taking place tomorrow (Tues, Feb. 3rd) night at 8 PM EST. Join us as we discuss living in a digital world and how that impacts our adolescent and young adults (AYA) cancer advocacy initiatives! #Oncology #Cancer #AYACancer #BTSM #BCSM #GYNCSM #LCSM #HPM

5 year old Liam is home, according to @ilhanmn.bsky.social and @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social!

John Hickenlooper and the cronies he has voted to confirm in the Trump administration have failed Coloradans and the people of this country as a whole. We need leaders who will listen to our demands and meet the urgency of the moment we’re in! Join me.

Hickenlooper does. He has a progressive state senator running against him in the primary www.julieforcolorado.com

I'll be honest, I don't expect fair elections for the midterms. But I'm going to push for voting anyway because we can't just hand this country over to them. We've got to fight to the bitter end to restore Democracy in this country.

Happy first day of Black History Month! There are so many incredible Black folks on this app. It's going to be important for all of us to lean into observing this month as much as possible with everything going on.

“bari weiss’s wife in the epstein files” is simply too perfect

Al Jazeera reporting that Israel has killed 31 Palestinians in Gaza *today* Think about Alex Pretti being killed 30 more times in one day

If the plan is to deport people why are they busy buying up 23+ warehouses that will hold 8-10k + people and also building new facilities in every state?

Going quiet here in a few minutes for the day. Posting is production.

Ladies, name change back to maiden name or divorce NOW 👏 (The cheaper one) You don't have to end your relationship, strategic divorce. Millions of women and girls are looking at losing their rights for at least a couple of generations if we don't get it together. For the ones who come after us.

We all know the day, we all know what we're supposed to be doing. Don't be afraid to make people upset. That's the goal.

Noem blaming Stephen for the current issues is going to get dicey real fast. 1) She's Secretary of DHS which is a Cabinet level position that is supposed to answer to POTUS. 2) Stephen is a Deputy COS at the White House and an Advisor on the Security council, not a Cabinet Position and not above a

Abolish. ice. 💔
