Crabby old woman who likes weaving, hiking, soap making and working with herbs. Small business owner. Gen-X.
Never do this, but it's been a rough fall sales wise. If you're looking for really unique gifts... handcrafted by an herbalist...check out my holiday gifts and bundles. And don't overlook my goat milk soaps (I make them, too!) tangledrootsherbal.com and hemlockspringssoaps.com

John Fetterman survived a stroke in 2022, which would be considered a pre existing condition.
He has a defibrillator for vfib, which can cost $34,000 to over $51,000.
He was one of 8 Dems who voted to gut the ACA and reopen the government.
He doesn’t have to worry, he has healthcare for life

A reminder that EVIL is not intelligent. It takes no smarts to break things, to disrupt, to destroy. Our enemies are not competent, organized, or unassailable. They ARE good at propaganda pretending to be.

Let's strengthen the Democratic Party by standing firmly on principle: (1) Medicare for All is a non-negotiable human right. (2) Demand leaders who can't be bought by foreign lobbyists, like AIPAC. (3) Stand for human rights, whether in the U.S, Palestine, or anywhere else.

You may not agree, but I think it’s time for Dems from coast to coast to run on Medicare for all.
We do NOT need health insurance companies at all.
Period.
They serve no valuable societal purpose other than to add cost to healthcare and drive people crazy.
