Just A Friendly Reminder….

Your taxes aren't high because of food stamps and school lunches. Your taxes are high because they fund wars and tax cuts for the ultra rich.

ANOTHER SENSELESS KILLING, MADE POSSIBLE BY LEGISLATORS

If there were any real concern for people’s safety, #Congress would pass #GunReform legislation,
instead of selling their votes to the #GunLobby. There’s no secret here.

For one fucking student, two shootings.

What are we doing here?

It's hard to have words for this, it has all been said.

The pain, the outrage, the stupidity of the inaction that one person can go through this twice.

It's gun. It's systems that treat people as commodities. Our country is sick.

If Ukraine's partners applied sanctions on everything Russian and blocked all trade with Russia overnight, then Russia's economy would implode and Russia's war would come to an end.
⚡️ BREAKING: Zelenskyy says if partners apply pressure, Russia will be forced to compromise.

The Ukrainian president added there is no direct dialogue with Moscow, with the US passing along Russia’s signals and demands.

There has never been, and there will never be, a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.

The reason for this is that—under Netanyahu—Israel is a genocidal rogue state whose signature on any document is meaningless.

American media did Trump a solid by pretending that a wholly illusory ceasefire exists.

With this latest mass shooting at Brown University, this might be a good time to mention that Bill Clinton’s assault weapons ban reduced mass shooting deaths by 43% - but after George W Bush & Republicans let it expire, mass shooting deaths spiked by 239%.

It's the guns!!! :(

A $700 increase is a big jump.

Medical debt is the product of decades of dysfunctional health-care policy, a market-oriented insurance system & patchwork of safety net programs with unfilled gaps.

MAGA and MAHA are a farce.
