Listen, this administration isn’t “making America great.” It’s targeting our neighbors, tearing families apart, and putting lives on the line. Democrats on Oversight are standing up because this fight isn’t about left or right. It’s about right and wrong. Period.

It can be difficult for veterans to use their health benefits for care outside the federal system. A bill in Congress could ease that. Opponents are wary funds being "siphoned" away from the VA.

pissed about RFK throwing wrench after wrench in our vaccine access? getting sicker isn’t the answer—prevent infection so we can regain everything we’ve lost and more—wear a mask 😷👇🏻

This surgery is fucking with my head. Everything is going so fast. I didn’t plan for this shit to happen. I don’t understand why this is all happening at once… I’m better off the meds regulation wise but shit it’s hurting a lot right now.

Ending Medicaid in order to build concentration camps. I feel, as always, there should be some kind of nonstop barrage of ads across America, every Democrat on every platform saying something like “Republicans want to end Medicaid in words to build concentration camps.”

A $1 TRILLION CUT: “SUPPORTERS OF THE GOP BILL frequently claim they are protecting Medicaid, not cutting it. Trump himself has repeated these false claims... It’s about as blatant a lie as you’ll see in politics.” And it will hurt his supporters most. www.thebulwark.com/p/medicaid-c...

Jesus wouldn't have cut $930 billion from Medicaid just to give billionaires more tax breaks.

ICE blasts their way into a home with a woman and child home, apparently looking for a guy over a car accident that had happened earlier. (He turned himself in) They are U.S. citizens. More: www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/h...

Folks think that when someone is chronically ill, support is provided based on severity of condition That if you get worse & can’t care for yourself help will magically appear It doesn’t. Unless you’re wealthy or have family, you’re on your own Many die or become more disabled due to lack of help

Oh sure, nothing says "make America healthy" like cutting the entire department responsible for occupational health - a brilliant move only if the goal is more chronic illness, not less. 🤯

Cole Escola will play their final performance in Oh, Mary! on Broadway in June. www.broadwayworld.com/article/OH-M...

What's next? 🥶 For sick people, people with Autoimmune sicknesses this is murder! Me and my daughter both has such sicknesses, we had to protect our self very well. Still we got COVID-19 twice, i suffer the consequences until today. This insane Nazi leader is killing his own citizens. 👹

🤬 These laws have got to stop. Everyone deserves the right to protect themselves. There are already laws in most states against "committing a crime while wearing a mask". So what is the real motivation here? It's absurd.

If you’re struggling right now, know that it’s ok to take a break. If you’re flaring more than usual, your body may be telling you that you need a rest. Being online offers excellent companionship, info & connection… but the unrelenting news cycle drains precious energy we need to fight back

Title 1 schools? That’s the Department of Education. Pell grants? That’s the Department of Education. IEPs? That’s the Department of Education. We need to improve education system, we do not need to eliminate the Department of Education.

The Dept. of Education is key to an education system that helps to prepare young people for today’s world and sets them up for success. Any attempt to eliminate it puts the needs and education of 50 million students at risk and harms them and their futures.

President Trump just signed an order attempting to dismantle the Department of Education. Can he do that? What is likely to happen next -- and what does the agency actually do day-to-day? My explainer: www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/u...

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away. They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

It’s really hard for me as a disabled person to engage seriously with any of the calls to action around what’s happening bc of the very real trauma of being abandoned by the same people to fend for myself against the conditions that disabled me in the first place.

Many folks are returning to masking regularly as US healthcare infrastructure shudders under corruption and collapse; as you find the one that works for you, have you ever tried these ones? What’s your favorite mask? How do you style it?

Some cities in Texas are running out of the MMR vaccine due to high demand. While this is encouraging, it’s tragic that it’s only finally happening after a couple of preventable deaths due to anti-vax disinformation.

Ronald Reagan (and the republicans) fucked up a lot of things in this country, especially its response to the AIDS crisis. The New York Public Library holds ACT-UP New York's collection and made the digitized collection available. digitalcollections.nypl.org/collections/...

Watching WICKED and the thing that every Wizard of Oz thing takes out is how, in the book, the Emerald City *itself* is a hoax. It's made of white limestone and everyone has to wear green glasses so it looks like it's made of emeralds.

If you want to learn more about masks & respirators, check out this guide to PPE. It explains how respirators work, how to fit test, Don and doff, where to buy them, how to find a mask bloc and more. Public health may have abandoned us, but we can still choose to mask. We can protect each other:

& if you’re BIPOC, fat, impoverished, or queer it’s impossible to get quality health care or supports from our communities. Multiply marginalized disabled womxn are left behind because no one cares about us. Our lives are meaningless in this oppressive system. #DisabilityJustice

Disabled women are more likely to experience abuse than their non disabled peers We’re often trapped with caregivers who treat us badly & lack the support to leave Many disability benefits are cut if you marry, forcing dependence We need a universal basic income so we can have autonomy #IWD2025

USDA has eliminated two food safety advisory committees for microbiological contamination and meat inspection. Most recently, they had been reviewing regulatory approaches in response to the fatal Listeria outbreak from Boar’s Head meats and fatal Cronobacter contamination in powdered infant formula

i'm stealing this from someone on twitter but the difference in body language here is due to the fact that both of these men are condemned to eternal damnation in the deepest circle of Hell but only Rubio realizes it

Masks work! Respirators work better! Healthcare workers should be leading by example. They should wear N95s consistently, and patients should be provided with respirators at the door. Hospital acquired COVID would drop significantly if people committed to this.

Hot take: Social security is good actually

Measles are contagious. Measles cause 1 in 4 people to be hospitalized. Measles can be deadly especially in children. Measles can cause blindness & deafness. Measles can cause brain damage yrs later. Measles can cause "immune amnesia". Measles are preventable with MMR vaccine. #medsky #IDsky 🛟 😷🧪

The NIH recently published a study: one of every 22 covid infections triggers ME. People are not being warned that their whole life could just vanish. Journalism literally exists for situations like this. #JohnVsJonVsME #GreatestMEdicalScandal 💗💝💕💝💗 www.livescience.com/health/coron...

And it's important that people realise ableism is not just discrimination against disabled folks, but an entire set of ways of relating and thinking which privileges even the IDEA of ability as somehow superior, while framing those not meeting the ableist ideal as LESSER.

Memory is one of our most critical resources in movement and remembering what came before is more vital than ever. It is necessary for not only learning how to fight, but for building a vision of what could be

“Saving democracy” is not the same thing as saving people.

Congratulations America, He spent $15 million of YOUR money to take a nap at the Super Bowl and leave before halftime… All, on your dime.

Kind of weird how much we've separated egg prices from the h5n1 virus. Like we get that's why eggs are expensive? Because we've failed to contain it and farmers have had to cull large amounts of chickens leading to a reduction in production?
