I am unable to attend a protest, too, due to health stuff, but we can always resist in the ways we can! ROAR!

I was @ the Y - I saw a client of mine that I worked with off and on for many years—she was one of my favorites, we really clicked. It was a delight to see her! The hardest part of being a therapist is not knowing how the client is years later. Sometimes, like today, one finds out!

What do MAGAs tell themselves when their dear leader declares war on a US city? How do they make this ok in their (haha) minds? All the shit they spewed about Biden's mental capacity and they are accepting this? Explain it to me.

Just called my POS US Rep and Senators to talk to them about the manhandling of Senator Padilla. Just to register my alarm at the way the jackbooted thugs behaved. What will they do to rein in Kristi Noem's and the felon's pursuit of fascism. I left 2 voicemails & spoke to Kelly's office person.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the health secretary, shared photos of himself and his grandchildren frolicking in waters filled with sewer overflow. Swimming in sewage. Spewing garbage. Sowing cynicism. That’s RFK Jr. alright.

I am a retired social worker and upheld my code of ethics. Does the SecDef have ANY ethics? If I breached data regarding my clients, I would lose my license. Maybe receive censure from the licensing board. What the SecDef did is way worse. FIRE HIM.

People with chronic illnesses like diabetes or MS need healthcare services that often exceed annual limits. Without ACA protections, they’ll be left without treatment. The ACA Saves Lives, but Republicans want to end these protections. Do you have friends/family with diabetes, cancer, or MS? I do!

Little Butler, PA had a protest today. Over 120 people showed up,. It was invigorating. We were on Main Street and could tell the supporters from the way they would beep-beep-peep and wave. Trusk supporters gave us the finger and laid on their horn. Supporters were way in the lead. In Butler!
