This is like Senators asking for Trump to release funding for their pet projects. When you campaigned for a personalist presidency you have turned yourself into a beggar seeking the King’s favor rather than a citizen who can be confident of equal treatment for all.

Please be mindful of what you’re ordering & how it gets to you. It is dangerously cold in the Midwest, and that doesn’t mean that postal workers get to call in. There are no concessions for mail service. If you’re a humanist, put a hold on orders for things that aren’t vital until the worst is over.

In 2019, RFK Jr visited Samoa to spread anti-vax lies, spurring a measles outbreak that led to the deaths of 83 people - mostly children.

We can’t let that tragedy repeat in Texas. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing measles. Let’s stop the spread.

The termination of 850 Indian Health Service physicians, nurses, and dentists will have a grave impact on access to care for millions of Native Americans.

Yes, this will make people care… but for the love of all that is holy - can we give a damn about the people, the plants, the animals, more than our desire to eat chocolate? My god.
💔 Climate change is putting chocolate at risk. 🍫

Cacao trees are highly sensitive to temperature. More heat stress can reduce growth, lower yields, and impact the quality of cocoa beans.

"Karina's Law" was signed into law on yesterday by Illinois Governor JB Pritzker.

The bill requires guns to be removed from an accused abuser's home after the victim in a domestic violence case is granted an order of protection.

Since he's attending the game(after golfing today), I think it would be great if a bunch of the players took a knee during the anthem... Just for him.
I hope Kendrick takes a shot at him too.

As governor of Illinois, I’ve made it my mission to make our state the best to call home including for our LGBTQ+ community.

No matter who you are or who you love, everyone deserves dignity and equality.

Hate has no home here.
