hi, cis folks!
if we *are* going to talk ACA, RFK's HHS proposed a rule to remove *all trans care* from ACA essential health benefit status.
~25mil people are insured by ACA & if 1% are trans, that's 250,000 people who'd lose access to care.
that's bad! take 2 minutes to stand with trans people.🧵

It's crazy to live in a society where "I think it's good to help people" is a radical ideology.

If I had a band or a label, I would do a punk cover of "No More Kings" from Schoolhouse Rock. And then I would gather a bunch of people to write a whole album of next-generation Schoolhouse Rock songs, with songs about Social Security and Medicaid and NOAA. I am not kidding in the least.

It’s high time we start being honest about what’s behind a lot of the push towards “wellness”.
It’s ableism and eugenics. Its scared people who can’t face the fact that they could lose their health at any moment.
It’s people who desperately need to cling to control. 🧵

The Stonewall Inn released a response to the National Parks Service removing the word transgender from the park outside of the Inn. A great reminder that we have to look after each other

Every Republican senator shares responsibility for what’s happening. They are complicit in, and share responsibility for, whatever mess Trump’s dangerous nominees cause.
But a few GOP senators from purple(ish) states face reelection next year — and we’re going to shine a light on their complicity.

Republican senators have taken some bad votes over the past week. Really, really bad.

An unelected South African has taken control of the US Treasury and is deciding to stop payments on American obligations, in violation of numerous court orders, and admits in the Oval Office that he has done so upon incorrect information, while the President sits impotently behind the Resolute Desk.
Reporter: You said an example of fraud that you have cited was $50 million of condoms was sent to Gaza but after a fact-check apparently it was Gaza in Mozambique meant to protect them against HIV.

All members of Congress swore allegiance to the Constitution. They didn't ask just Democrats to defend America against all enemies.
The house is on fire, y'all. I'll do everything I can to extinguish that flame, but I am begging my Republican colleagues to remember their oath.

Every person in our government should have to prove they are mentally fit to run our country. If we had this as a law, most of congress, and absolutely the "president," would be out on their asses. #uspol
