AOC: Fox News and the right-wing would have you believe that these American values are something out of The Communist Manifesto. But let me tell you Fox News, I don’t believe in healthcare, labor, and human rights because I’m a Marxist.. I believe it because I was a waitress.

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense.
I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense
I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

I had the pleasure of exhibiting for Chanticleer at @abigs.bsky.social's Women in Publishing last week. Now more than ever, it's critical to uplift all women who surround us! Proud to work for a woman-owned business that is committed to uplifting voices often left behind by gatekeepers. #Community

Haha 😂 Trump appointees at USAID sent terminated employees a list of over 100 prohibited weapons they cannot bring when retrieving their belongings. The list includes firearms, axes, martial arts weapons like nunchucks and throwing stars, spearguns, and even dynamite.

Yep, there's a connection.
Many months ago my eyes-wide-open spouse mentioned this possibility.
'Shush! I can't hear this.'
(longterm ptsd recovery does that for you. Over time, you get a tad better at managing triggers.)
Now I can hear, see, feel this - & yep, it sucks.

“For whatever reason, people of color have a higher incidence of maternal mortality."
This is a rather telling statement. Nearly a third of women in Louisiana are Black. www.businessinsider.com/gop-senator-...
Maternal death rate isn't as bad if you don't count Black women, GOP senator says
Louisiana's Bill Cassidy said the state's maternal death rate isn't so high if you "correct our population for race," Politico reported.

Literally have been telling this dude this for a very long time. Keep up, Chuck. Also: WTF are you going to do about it?
An unelected shadow government is conducting a hostile takeover of the federal government.
DOGE is not a real government agency.
DOGE has no authority to make spending decisions.
DOGE has no authority to shut programs down or to ignore federal law.
DOGE’s conduct cannot be allowed to stand.

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.
