22 California billionaires have spent a combined $150 million to defeat Prop 40. Their combined wealth in January 2025 was $439 BILLION. By September 2026, it had grown to $722 BILLION. They're accidentally making the case for the billionaire tax better than anyone else could.

The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed... "How will you pay for it?" The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts... "How much do you need?" It doesn't have to be this way.

Imagine 200 Americans. In this crowd,
24 live in poverty.
18 have no health insurance.
42 are illiterate.
45 have untreated mental illnesses.
35 have an
untreated addiction.
134 live paycheck to paycheck.
23 have experienced homelessness.
59 are victims of domestic violence.
20 have experienced discrimination for their age, race, gender, or religion.
1 is transexual.
Some people would have you believe that this 1 person is the greatest threat and the biggest concern for everyone else in the crowd. How does that make sense?

Biochemist Dr. Ida Stephens Owens mapped how human genes control drug metabolism. The first Black woman to earn a PhD from Duke (1967), she spent ~50 years at NIH. She identified the UGT1A gene complex, decoding how enzymes detoxify drugs & harmful toxins. She was born #OTD in 1939.🧵 #WomenInSTEM
A charming photograph of American biochemist Dr. Ida Stephens Owens (1939–2020), renowned for her groundbreaking research on drug-detoxifying enzymes and human genetics, posing in a laboratory setting. Standing from the waist up, she is turned slightly to the right, looking forward with a warm, confident smile that lights up her face. She has short, curly black hair and wears a delicate gold chain necklace with a small round pendant, and a ring on her finger. She is dressed in a casual, short-sleeved beige knit top. Her forearms rest on a surface in the foreground, with one hand loosely holding a pink folder or pamphlet. Behind her, a brightly illuminated laboratory reveals her research environment, featuring a tall shelf tightly packed with colorful textbooks, alongside structured racks holding assorted glass beakers and scientific equipment. The overall composition balances her approachable, dignified expression with the busy backdrop of her historic, decades-long career at the National Institutes of Health.

It doesn’t matter if you eat organic foods. It doesn’t matter if you exercise regularly. It doesn’t matter if you inject peptides. It doesn’t matter if you have “good genes”. None of these things will prevent you from contracting vaccine-preventable diseases. There is only one thing that will.
