When conflicts and disasters hit, keeping sexual and reproductive health care and protection services at the core of humanitarian action is non-negotiable.

Is this true? The region we know as Palestine today has had many names dating back thousands of years. Palestine is a legitimate term for the region dating back centuries. How can any museum erase the name?
This is truly terrifying, like the Nazis we are simply erasing people from existence, and it is happening without anyone questioning it.

How utterly depressing. Just means more non-consual images will be allowed for commercial reasons. Capitalism has zero ethical boundaries

Did you see this today?

Anti #ICE protesters carried a MASSIVE U.S.
Constitution through the streets of Minneapolis.
Not a flag.
Not a slogan.
The Constitution.
Thousands marched, demanding accountability and asking whether federal enforcement is aligning with the rights written on those pages.

the constitution is turning the corner now ...
i so hope that happens in a symbolic sense too!

The media's obsession with “balanced coverage” is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and fascism.

Again, Trump, like Vance, Hegseth and Noem, shows up in front of uniformed soldiers and gives a partisan political speech, attacking political opponents and ordering the soldiers to vote for the entire GOP ticket, top to bottom. Brazenly illegal. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Trump tells soldiers to vote GOP in campaign-style rally at Fort Bragg
Army policy prohibits partisan displays, and most service members refrained from cheering.

Puerto Ricans, including Bad Bunny's family, have been U.S. citizens since the Jones-Shafroth Act of 1917. Trump's grandmother, Mary Anne MacLeod, immigrated from Scotland to the U.S. in 1930 and became a citizen in 1942. So you can say Bad Bunny has more American heritage than Trump. 🔄

The Epstein scandal isn't just about the disgusting sex trafficking of underage girls.

It's also about the rich, powerful men who LIED to us to cover up their involvement.
February 13, 2026 at 7:46 PM
And by "our country" I assume you mean the United Arab Emirates where you live?
February 13, 2026 at 7:37 PM
Hence why Epstein was as successful as he was. Everyone associating with him was ‘looking at the stock market’ aka concerned only with self-enrichment. No consideration given to the abuse and trafficking of children and young women.

"No matter what the president says, the bottom line is that TrumpRx directs families to buy expensive brand-name drugs when generic versions are available elsewhere at a fraction of the cost," said Sen. Maggie Hassan.
Congressional Report Warns TrumpRx May Lead 'Families to Pay More to Big Pharma'
"The president should work with Democrats and Republicans to actually lower prescription drug costs for families," said Sen. Maggie Hassan, "rather than helping Big Pharma line its pockets."

MAHA: Eating a giant steak cooked in butter alongside beef tallow fries and washing it down with coffee spiked with butter

Not MAHA: Clean air, clean water, health insurance, vaccines, disease monitoring, scientific research, food assistance, food safety, bike lanes

These are such crucial messages- democratic societies cannot thrive, or even survive, gross wealth inequalities . The super rich drive political corruption, which we’re seeing across too many countries now. Current so-called populist politics only serves to protect the wealthy. Election reform now!
AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

My take on FAKE MAGA outrage about the Super Bowl Bad Bunny halftime show.

1. Out of the 50 states, only 6 have English names. 44 states have Spanish or Indian names.

By MAGA ignorant standards, the 44 states are not American enough bcuz they are not in English.

I see no reason not to look at the online gambling and prediction market craze as a new opioids crisis.

It will wreak havoc on lower-income Americans and leave a trail of destruction and despair in its wake.

The companies are just Purdue Pharma 2.0

NEW‼️ For the forthcoming Pandemic Agreement travaux préparatoires edited by @alexandraphelan.bsky.social, we did a deep dive on how experts and evidence shaped the negotiations. What we found is a microcosm of global health: limited time, high stakes, and familiar shady actors like Big Pharma. (1/3)
