We need priorities that: ✅ Expand the full complement of student mental health services – school counselors, school psychologists and school social workers ✅ Include prevention for all students ✅ Keep IHEs eligible ✅ Use school-appropriate consent policies Submit comments by Aug. 18: buff.ly/yKtuM6I

🚨 Take Action to Respond to Proposed Grant Priorities! 🚨 Proposed changes to the federal SBMH Services Grant and MHSP Grant would: ❌ Limit services to a small % of students ❌ Exclude colleges/universities from applying ❌ Create barriers for student access ❌ Disregard prevention & wellness supports

🚨House Republicans just passed a bill that would disenfranchise 70 million married American women. Under the SAVE Act, women who took their spouse’s last name and don't have an updated passport or birth certificate would be turned away at the polls.

At least this Republican Congressman from Kentucky is being honest. That for him representative democracy is dead. He doesn’t seem to care about wrecking the livelihoods of Kentuckians. His job is to do for his dictator in Washington, DC. His only constituent.

"Give the power to the states" was also the pro-slavery argument in the 1850s -- and the pro-segregation argument in the 1950s.

My statement on the leadership of Senator Schumer and Congressman Jeffries ⬇️

The best time for Senator Schumer and Representative Jeffries to step down from their roles in leadership was immediately after Democrats lost the House, Senate, White House and the popular vote in November, which hadn’t happened in 20 years.

The second best time for them to step down would be right now, after allowing Republicans to run over them in budget negotiations.

As Republicans hold a trifecta, it was their Party’s responsibility to pass a budget and get the votes to keep the government running, not the Democratic Party.

Yet, under the leadership of both Representative Jeffries and Senator Schumer, Democrats are yet again being pushed around by Republicans, which will result in working class Americans being harmed by the Republican Party’s budget.

As I travel this country, I hear from people and overwhelmingly, working class Americans are growing frustrated with the feeble leadership of the Democratic Party.

People want an end to the billionaire influence over our politics, universal healthcare, tuition-free college, living wages, housing for all, making corporations and the ultra-wealthy pay their fair share of taxes, and a political party that fights for these things.

It’s time for, not just a change in leadership, but a new direction.

Trump Republicans hate the Department of Ed for the same reasons they hate education. They view education as a waste of funds since it exposes their fraud and prevents their abuse of American minds through their outlets of disinformation. Trump Republicans want a country of believers, not thinkers.

The state of the union? 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Half of Americans struggle to afford rent. Homelessness has risen by record numbers two years in a row. The #1 cause of bankruptcy is medical debt. Our taxes are funding a genocide.

In the first two years of Biden’s presidency, Democrats controlled the House and Senate, yet couldn’t pass voting rights, raise the minimum wage, or the George Floyd Justice In Policing Act. “But Manchin & Sinema!” They did the bidding of their donors.

The National Park Service removed references to transgender people from its Stonewall National Monument web pages because of Trump. "The rebellion at Stonewall would not have happened without trans people. To attempt to erase their existence is utterly shameful." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/n...

A fat $25 million gift from Meta to Trump

Meta to Pay $25 Million to Settle 2021 Trump Lawsuit
The president had sued the social-media company after his accounts were suspended following Jan. 6 riot

Meta Platforms has agreed to pay roughly $25 million to settle a 2021 lawsuit that President Trump brought against the company and its CEO after the social-media platform suspended his accounts following the attacks on the U.S. Capitol that year, according to people familiar with the agreement.

Of that, $22 million will go toward a fund for Trump’s presidential library, with the rest going to legal fees and the other plaintiffs who signed onto the case. Meta won’t admit wrongdoing, the people said. Trump signed the settlement agreement Wednesday in the Oval Office.

A Meta spokesman confirmed the settlement.
