Paging Senator Cassidy,
Dallas County, TX canceling 50 measles immunization clinics because of cuts to funding from HHS.
Aren’t you so glad you supported that anti-science anti-vaccine nominee.

One way to reduce drug spend is to have the FDA do an analysis of how long medicine retains it's potency. It can do it one drug at a time.
No one should throw away medicine they shouldn't have to. Whether pharmacy or patient.

The Myth of Drug Expiration Dates
Hospitals and pharmacies are required to toss expired drugs, no matter how expensive or vital. Meanwhile the FDA has long known that many remain safe and potent for years longer.

Women’s March 2025 in DC was truly a beautiful event. How often do you get to participate in an event like this in a lifetime?
The people were amazing, the speakers were amazing and the signs were top notch.
Everyone was there for different reasons but everyone was supportive.

One man had a dream of unity, justice & equality. Another dreams of being seen as something he’s not. On this day, let’s honor the legacy of MLK Jr.—a leader who built bridges, not walls. Choose light over noise, hope over chaos. They can’t stop the dream when we stand together.

I finally realized what bugs me about the TikTok notice: it’s not that Trump may save it, it’s the ‘we need his permission’ vibe. It feels very Handmaid’s Tale. I don’t need permission to post on a social platform. TikTok, you’re starting to feel like a bad place. Never OfTrump

Centrism.
Fascism thrives by aggressively pulling mainstream narrative to the extreme-right.
What was once 'centrist' 50 years ago has predominantly been obliterated globally.
This is primarily due to how once center-left policies are morphing into far-right to achieve 'centrism'.
Enough is enough #StandUp
