A father suffered a seizure as ICE agents tried to tear a baby from its mother’s arms while attempting to detain the mother in Massachusetts.

There is simply no way that this conforms to most Americans’ views of how we treat people. In schools.

We are better than this.
There is absolutely no reason for these raids to be happening in schools.

This is something that should be uncontroversial and bipartisan - masked men shouldn't be coming into schools and permanently removing classmates.

Congress should stop this immediately.
ICE followed the mother into a school and aggressively detained her along with her children.
This is so heartbreaking 💔

Hey [email protected] - this is a good point. Pay the FEMA disaster relief claims.
Kristi Noem has $0 for victims of Hurricane Helene in Western North Carolina who lost their homes but $172,000,000 to buy jets to ferry her around to pose for photo-ops.

Rural hospitals are at risk of shutting down because of federal Medicaid cuts, which means:

❌ Fewer doctors
❌ Longer drives to hospitals
❌ Delayed emergency care

Every Washingtonian deserves access to a hospital, no matter where they live.
'I don’t sleep well at night.' Washington’s rural hospitals brace for Medicaid cuts, possible closures
When changes to the federal Medicaid program take effect in about a year, rural hospitals could face closures, leaving people to drive an hour or more to the next closest options.

A small bag of coffee in my local grocery store now averages about $14-15. Same bag, not long ago, was priced $6-7. I’m told to expect those prices to rise further with the Brazil tariffs.

Rural hospitals have been fighting to survive for a long time. The recent big @&$*?! bill will make it worse. Remind your representative that this was all foreseen when the local hospital is no more, and the cost for care is higher and further away.

Trump in 2020: We have to go by the laws. We can't move in the National Guard. I can call insurrection but there's no reason to ever do that, even in a Portland case. We can't call in the National Guard unless we're requested by a governor.

The inability - or refusal - to agree on facts is killing us as a country. Partly culture, partly biases, but definitely a lack of fact based education. I’m not sure it can be reversed. Distressing.

@jonathancapehart.bsky.social - Becerra was a disaster at HHS, leading to hospital closures and being untruthful to congress. And there is media coverage of all of it. Please don’t rely upon Becerra. Let me know if you want the receipts.
April 6, 2025 at 10:35 PM
@jonathancapehart.bsky.social Jonathan, as I watch your segment right now with Becerra, I’m absolutely sickened that he is touted as any person with
credibility related to HHS. I can tell you from personal experience - with facts backed up with FOIA disclosures, he was a disaster.

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed. He needs to resign in disgrace immediately. - Senator Tammy Duckworth, March 26, 2025.

My husband, as a disabled person, is a Medicaid recipient.
The number on the left is how much his upcoming surgery (which he needs to BREATHE NORMALLY) would cost w/o Medicaid. The number on the right is what it’s costing us.
The end of Medicaid would kill disabled folks.

🇺🇸 CNN poll shows just 8% of Americans view Russia positively—on par with those who think the moon landing was fake. 61% see Russia as an enemy, and only 4% as a partner. Only 9% like Putin, with the same percentage believing the Earth is flat. 52% support Ukraine using U.S. weapons in Russia.
