@doctorswithoutborders.org I would like to respectfully request that you change the default donation setting on your website from "Monthly" to "One-time" because it's borderline deceptive to do it the way you currently are. Thank you.

Your daily reminder that income inequality and racism are the dual cancers rapidly gnawing away at the fabric of American society. But, unlike racism, we can fix income inequality just by changing the tax code.

I amend my position with a small caveat: If you are literally one of the candidates, then yes, you and that candidate might agree with each other 100%.
But, if you are not running for office yourself, you have to decide among the 2, or (rarely) 3, candidates who actually have a chance at winning.

There will never be a time, when we *aren't* voting for the "lesser evil."
There's no perfect candidate. It would be absurd to believe you and a candidate agree 100% on everything. At best, you vote for the viable candidate you disagree with least.
That is, by definition, the lesser evil.

So a trans kid breaks their leg and no hospital will be allowed to treat them or it risks losing all Medicare/Medicaid reimbursements? Doesn't that also violate EMTALA?

Hey, it's NOT Nazi-style fascism because our federal police kidnapping people from their cars and homes and public streets and stealing them away into secretive prisons are wearing face masks to protect their identities, whereas in Hitler's Germany, they didn't have to.

Am I missing some key context, or is it actually true that the GOP position is that poor people can't eat unless enough Democrats vote with Republicans to reduce access to healthcare? Because that's what it seems to boil down to.

It seems pretty obvious at this point that T's not doing all this to quell existing unrest, but rather getting ready for the uprising that will occur when he and his toadies actually start doing everything they want to (Constitution, laws, courts, and common decency be damned).

Most Americans may not give a shit about climate change, but I'm going to continue fighting it every chance I get. The path we're on will make climate change the biggest existential threat humanity has faced globally in recorded history.
Duh. Those of us on the ground last year actually speaking with middle class/working class voters and who heard from these voters every single day the same - “Trump is an asshole, but Democrats are out of touch” - could’ve saved my new political party a lot of time & money producing this “report.”👇
