It's a little something called free speech. You might want to read up on it before January, Donald.

I’m not going to amplify the antisemitism coming from the leaders of the Republican Party, but yes, it is as bad as observers say it is, and yes, it is going exactly where you think it is unless we stop those leaders and reclaim our country for democracy.

📢 We are pro-abortion and we aren't afraid to say it. Euphemisms like "pro-choice" unintentionally perpetuate stigma and shame for those who need abortion care. Rather than dancing around it, we encourage our supporters to be loud and proud with your support of abortion.

Here is a clip of Lizzo playing a 200-year-old flute in the library of congress. A beautiful performance from a well-trained musician. The outrage from certain people is just a symptom of their ideology.
(Every time you share this it makes a right-wing talking head cry.)

Way to go, #SupremeCourt! Making the planet uninhabitable #ClimateCrisis and making women chattel #ReproductiveRights.
I thought I was ready for the Roe v Wade announcement until I heard it and my heart crumpled and my phone is blowing up with messages and I feel angry and sick. And ready to fight. #roeoverturned #SupremeCourt

Amazes me that people still don’t get it. Health insurance companies don’t care about you. They want to extract money from your healthy body until you are no longer healthy, then they want you to die as quickly as possible so they can focus on other money producing bodies.
What a trip to Peru taught me about the pandemic

Governor Abbott, if you have any decency, you will immediately withdraw from this weekend’s NRA convention and urge them to hold it anywhere but Texas.
So happy for and proud of these @RushUniversity @RushUNursing #FNP #DNP students who knocked their doctoral presentations out of the park. Excited to see your contributions in the future!

I've been taking an RX for a chronic condition for years. This week, I learned my insurance no longer covers it. Now the cost is $639-a-month! How many people can afford that?
"Your money or your life" is a hell of choice that people shouldn't have to face.
