Bernie Sanders: "They will use the enormous media operations they own to deflect attention away from the impact of their policies while they entertain us to death."

Operation ICE Ride-Along isn’t going as planned. 🔥 Fox News tagged along with ICE, hoping for an exclusive look at “dangerous criminals.” Instead, they got a whole lot of nothing. No threats, no big arrests—just a community that wasn’t having it. The narrative is falling apart.

Check out our latest resource: Strategies for Justice! Discover actionable steps to combat democratic erosion, disinformation, & the marginalization of vulnerable communities. View at www.crdjustice.org/infographics. [1/2]

The image is an informational poster titled “Strategies for Justice: Learn how YOU can take action!” It outlines various threats to justice, such as weakening democratic institutions, suppressing dissent, and spreading disinformation. The poster also lists six ways individuals can take action, including defending democratic institutions, mass mobilization, countering disinformation, economic resistance, community preparedness, and international solidarity. Each category includes specific steps like supporting whistleblowers, organizing protests, boycotting problematic businesses, and securing communications.

The image is the second page of an informational poster from the Center for Racial & Disability Justice, encouraging action against surveillance, censorship, and government overreach. It includes sections on “Taking Back Social Media & Info” by using alternative platforms, securing messages, and countering misinformation. Another section outlines what Congress can do, such as opposing civil service purges, protecting journalists, and investigating government conflicts of interest. The poster urges individuals to “Contact Your Representatives” through calls, emails, or faxes and provides resources for finding elected officials. A call to “Follow Our Work” directs viewers to CRDJustice.org for more information.

[THREAD]: We're fighting for justice and accessible healthcare. Proposed Medicaid cuts and work requirements threaten decades of progress, putting millions at risk. This isn’t just policy—it’s about justice, equity, and the right to quality care for all. (1/9) #MedicaidMatters

On a turquoise background, bolded teal text reads "Why Medicaid Matters" with a teal arrow pointing right to the next slide in the post. At the top, the "Center for Racial & Disability Justice" name is written in thinner, capitalized text, with a 1/9 counter in the top-right corner. At the bottom, a teal rectangle frames white text with CRDJustice.org and a script font, reading "#MedicaidDayOfAction."

Mask mandates belong in healthcare. We should be providing free respirators at the door & cleaning and ventilating the air. If you’re a healthcare worker who doesn’t think you need to mask, please read my plea on behalf of vulnerable patients:

disabledginger.com

A Plea to Maskless Healthcare Workers from Vulnerable Patients

If you see a mask - wear a mask. Better yet - wear a mask all the time and show us you understand that we're still IN a pandemic. We are depending on you to keep us safe - please don't betray that.

Now would be an excellent time to start wearing a respirator. Do it as a show of solidarity with those who’ve spent five years being told they’re expendable Do it for yourself. You don’t want to become disabled in the MAHA era Your health is a gift. You have agency and resilience. Don’t waste it

Such a powerful & clear connection made by @imanibarbarin.bsky.social “They sold your bodies downriver, because your bodies, when they are sick and disabled, are profit centers. Are we figuring it out yet?” 💯😡 #covidisntover #maskup #disabilityjustice #luigimangione www.tiktok.com/t/ZTYq9Emjr/

So if we are serious about preventing #LongCOVID (& we must be w/ no approved treatments), we have to do more to prevent #COVID19 infection: 👉Clean the air (demand ⬆️ indoor air quality standards, build #CorsiRosenthalBox, open 🪟) 👉#WearAMask 👉#GetVaccinated #MedSky

Black text on a turquoise background reads:

THE SICK TIMES

A new study of nearly 10,000 people with Long COVID confirms what many with the disease already know: Long COVID can cause severe financial burden. Researchers analyzed the results of a survey that assessed food insecurity, inability to pay bills, and threat of losing utility service. They found that the disease affected all socioeconomic statuses, but people who already had low incomes prior to developing Long COVID were worst off.

“People’s financial well-being is being affected by Long COVID,” one of the study’s authors said in a press release. “That’s something we should care about.”

Black text on a turquoise background reads:

THE SICK TIMES

A new monoclonal antibody clinical trial will launch this winter, according to Long COVID and ME researcher Dr. Nancy Klimas. Researchers will test AstraZeneca’s Evusheld 2.0, also known as Sipavibart. Klimas said the 100-person randomized controlled trial should launch in early 2025. The trial is funded by the state of Florida and the Schmidt Initiative for Long COVID. Watch the interview in which the trial was announced on a recent episode of the podcast, Long COVID the Answers.

Black text on a turquoise background reads:

THE SICK TIMES

Mount Sinai’s Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic Illnesses (CoRE) is looking for volunteers for a six month clinical trial for Long COVID to test two HIV drugs. The antiviral trial, based in New York City, will include three patient groups: Truvada, Selezentry (Maraviroc), and a placebo. It requires four in-person visits, blood and saliva samples, and online questionnaires. To see if you are eligible to enroll, or for more information, contact coreresearch@mountsinai.org.

Oh to be someone whose medications fit on a single tiny ass line

An online medical intake form with a small single line text box that asks you to list all your medications in it. There is one line for "Over the counter meds (please list)", and other for "Prescription meds (please list)", and "Others/supplement (please list)".
