The cruelty is the point

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.

She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.

This is not about immigration enforcement.

It's about terrorizing Americans.

This senile liar who currently occupies the White House does not remember that he was President on January 6th.

If you voted for this senile liar, and if you enable him today, you clearly are ok with breaking America. The ruins of our once great nation are because of you.

Literally in tears. People outside of healthcare have no idea how devastating this is.

Like, I had a subscription as part of my job as an infection control nurse.

I feel sick.

Just in case: MMWR is a key frontline indicator for outbreaks. The first subtle hint of AIDS was in that publication. This is the pale horse that Death rides.

The Trump Administration’s removal of LGBTQ suicide prevention programs this summer was a disgrace.

I just signed legislation requiring student ID cards in public middle schools, high schools, and colleges to include the Trevor Project’s crisis and suicide prevention hotline.

Latinas are paid only 54 cents for every $1 paid to white men.

As a proud Latina, I’m fighting to pass the Paycheck Fairness Act to ensure that every woman in the workforce has access to the fair and equal pay they deserve.

We need equal pay for #Trabajadoras everywhere. Listen to hear more ⬇️
