beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Important essay, but it applies equally to those of us who have daughters. There were no doubt women at that party and even more women who saw the Snapchat. We should expect every community member to "see something, say something". 020
beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 24/08/2026Recommend starting some voter registration drives on campuses too. Engage them before they get too bogged down with class work 010
beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 26/07/2026She has long been a reliable Dem vote on almost every issue. Mike Rogers swears allegiance to Trump. The goal is to defeat Rogers, whether that means voting for Stevens or El-Sayed in November. They’re both good candidates. 280
beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 26/07/2026Stevens was my rep before redistricting and she’s been excellent. This performative outrage against her is so tiresome, childish, and damaging. They’re both good- if flawed- candidates, and I’ll happily vote for either in November. We MUST defeat Rogers. HE is the bad guy here. 1111
beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 25/07/2026I will happily vote for Dr. El-Sayed if he wins. However, there is no question that Haley Stevens has been a reliable Democratic vote in the House and will be so as a senator. AIPAC is an issue, but Rogers affirmatively supports Trumpism and all that it entails, including war in the MIddle East. 010
beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 02/05/2026The pro-life movement was founded on this principle. It had little to do with "saving babies" and everything to do with getting women out of the workforce. The founders blamed abortion and contraception for denying them their "rightful place" as the family breadwinner. Now childcare is on the table. 010
beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 22/03/2026It's also a mismatch between those who are looking to relocate to a big city/suburbs vs. those who will take a residency in a traditionally underserved area (rural/large uninsured population). International physicians are filling those geographic gaps as well. 000

beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 10/01/2026Our country was quite literally born of challenge and protest…the Boston Tea Party. It’s the foundation of our democracy, and we’re not giving it up because some mediocre excuse for a congressman tells us to. 151
beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 03/01/2026When is it acceptable to take over and run another country that posed no threat to us whatsoever? Disappointed in your statement. Waiting to hear what Mallory McMorrow has to say. 020
beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 28/10/2025Yeah it’s dumb and performative, but the cost (direct and indirect) to defend against these claims is enormous, and it gets passed on to consumers. 020
beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 09/10/2025A devout, pro-life "Christian" Nationalist who is divorced and has a child with a disability that would qualify them for the Medicaid coverage he seeks to eliminate. Driven by hate, not faith. 010
beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 11/09/2025THIS. Thank you for stating so clearly what I’ve been thinking. 030
beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 01/07/2025These individual acts destroying Medicare, Medicaid, special ed, and home care jobs (not coincidentally often filled by immigrants and people of color)...are central to their plan to dehumanize and marginalize the old, the disabled, the "other". Beyond evil. We need to talk about it. Now. 010
beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 31/05/2025This faces one of the busiest roads at one of the busiest intersections in one of Michigan's biggest counties. Not sure why they choose to display their failure this way, but who am I to question Elon's "genius". 1251
beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 29/04/2025She achieved 1) disaster funding for Northern Michigan (ice storm) and 2) relief from tariffs that would devastate the auto industry and Michigan's economy. In other words, she did what she was elected to do - represent all Michiganders. Not asking for help would be malpractice. 130
beckic.bsky.social @beckic.bsky.social · 29/04/2025I'm grateful our governor asked for the tariffs to be nixed and for FEMA funds for northern Michigan storm recovery. As governor she is responsible for ALL Michigan residents and businesses. It's why we elected her. If the auto industry tanks, so does the rest of Michigan's economy. She did her job. 000
