This World AIDS Day, we remember the hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers lost to HIV and AIDS, and those living with HIV today. We must remind ourselves and each other that the fight isn’t over until the epidemic is over for everyone.

Trump and Republicans slashed over $1.1 trillion from Medicaid and cut healthcare tax credits that lower costs for millions of working families — all while delivering billions in tax breaks to insurance CEOs and Big Pharma. Join the fight to protect healthcare:

🧵1 Rachel Maddow is right, again. We should all know Trump plans to eliminate every penny of federal funding for Head Start. It isn’t a rumor. It’s in his actual 2026 draft budget. 750,000 kids. Gone. One of the most successful programs for families—slashed for MAGA spite.

And just to draw out the logic here: Trump's goal is to stoke an environment of such enormous fear that immigrants leave the U.S, to avoid the risk of being trapped in a hellish prison camp for life, and the threat that similar tactics will be deployed on U.S. citizens keeps the rest of us in line

On Sunday, a report is due that could include a recommendation to invoke the Insurrection Act as part of Trump’s effort to "secure" the southern border. Let’s be clear: This might not happen. But we’d be foolish not to take the possibility seriously. This isn’t about fear, it’s about preparation.
