"After we win in November, we do not demobilize. The rich and corporate interests who tried to buy this election with the millions they stole from our pockets will want to see us fail.

We won’t let them." - Chi Ossé

New study just dropped linking shingles reactivation and dementia risk.

You know what reactivates shingles? Covid.

Want to avoid it? Wear a well fitted respirator and give yourself the best odds of avoiding Covid infection.

There’s also a shingles vaccine which may help reduce risk!

American gun owners are beginning to realize that the National Rifle Association has been lying to them about having guns to protect their freedoms and sovereignty all along.

It was always a marketing gimmick to sell guns.

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.

Trump is murdering people AT RANDOM, risking starting expensive pointless wars, wasting our taxes, and disrespecting our military and public services workers. He should be IMPEACHED and HELD ACCOUNTABLE AT TRIAL.

Who were the 6 people the Administration just killed without due process?

Were they children?

Were they victims of human trafficking?

WE DON’T KNOW—they refuse to show proof.

No one made Trump judge, jury & executioner. This is a gross violation of international human rights.

Trump Administration Strikes Another Boat It Says Was Trafficking Drugs

The president said that six were killed in the latest military action off the coast of Venezuela.

Our taxes are paying ICE to use lethal restraints on innocent people.

'AP has identified a dozen fatal cases in the last decade where local police or jailers around the U.S. used the WRAP and autopsies determined “restraint” played a role in the death.'

Takeaways from the AP investigation into ICE's use of a full-body restraint device known as the WRAP

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers have been using a full-body restraint device called the WRAP during deportations.

There are better ways to keep ICE out of your home; see Nov. 4 for details.

Except the reason it went on this long and terribly is because Trump allowed and encouraged it, and it's not going to stop - Israel's still escalating, still funding illegal militant settlements with our taxes, and they're not going to stop because Trump wants land deals there.
