Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

We knew this, but we are glad someone really really looked.

I had the opportunity to review the work experience and skills of numerous people who were laid off or fired from public health jobs by Donald Trump.
I want every taxpayer to know that the US has lost an immeasurable number of the smartest, most experienced, and hardworking people on the planet.

Bottom line: policy decisions based on ideology, not evidence, put veterans (and everyone) at risk. Veterans shouldn’t have to fight their own government for life-saving care. 🇺🇸

Male breast cancer is rare (<1% of cases) but deadly, often diagnosed late.
Risk factors: BRCA2 mutations, radiation, obesity, hormone imbalance, toxic exposure. Treatment mirrors that for women: surgery, chemo, radiation, hormone therapy. 🧬

The Trump regime is rolling back VA coverage for male breast cancer, citing the “Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism” order.

💔 Male vets now must prove their cancer came from service instead of receiving automatic care.

Kids should feel safe to play baseball in their own neighborhoods without fear of ICE agents coming for them. Coaches shouldn’t need to act as lawyers. This should not be happening in America.

The Republican “vision” for health care? Throw 17 million off of their insurance.
Our vision: do what every other wealthy nation does. Guarantee health care for ALL as a human right.
Now, more than ever, we must take on the insurance companies & fight for Medicare for All.

It's peak cherry harvest time in CAs central valley. This worker earns $6.50 per 23lb bucket of cherries. On a good day she can pick 20-24 buckets in 7 hrs-if she works as fast as she can. Peak season doesn't last long so she rushes to earn every penny. Her family relies on her. #WeFeedYou
