It's a small thing, but such an encouraging trend, when someone posts with a typo – and rather than correcting it, people go ahead and like it, repost, and engage in convo without mentioning it.

Now this is some great action to take! If the fed reps are making too much cash to want to over turn this, do it where you are!
If you’re looking for something to do, start working on overturning citizens united in your state. States control the power corporations have. Take their political power away with a ballot initiative. Here’s how: open.substack.com/pub/robertre...
How to Get Rid of "Citizens United"
We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way.

Dear Writers,
We’ve all read your dystopian nightmares: Handmaids Tale, 1984,Fahrenheit 451 etc. Project25/26 seem to be based on them. Humans like horror. You warned & scared us.
Now can we please have some How To Build a Great Future books? Or at least some how to triumph over these weirdos?

In May, the Trump Admin secretly--and probably illegally--began using SSA data to verify voters' citizenship.
One big problem: Social Security data don’t have complete or up-to-date citizenship info, so this could disenfranchise U.S. citizens ahead of the midterms.

Current NIH policy under Bhattacharya (at the behest of Project2025 architect Russell Vought) is killing the next generation of researchers.
If you value research, tell your members of Congress that the NIH needs more than funding. It needs sound leadership.

🦠What happens when you say you will only protect babies of infected moms, but you are bad at detecting infected moms❓
🚫You miss a lot of babies who needed protection.
This is exactly why in 1991 we went from only vaccinating babies of Hepatitis B positive moms to vaccinating all babies.

This article is 1000% correct. We can’t actually achieve any of these goals without more staff. Friendly reminder that the last time we had this few staff it was 1967. We served 480 claimants per staff then. Now we have to serve 1800 per staff. This is not sustainable or even achievable. Period.

The new goal to cut the number of field office visits comes as the agency’s frontline locations have lost thousands of employees.
