Nurses are pissed. This is on the front page of the nursing subreddit, along with many discussions about it on several other posts.

A red and black NURSES' STRIKE flyer with silhouetted people protesting on it. It says

Republicans need to take a stand. This is an assault on the Constitution. 1st Amendment: peacefully assemble. 2nd Amendment: Alex Pretti was a lawful gun owner. 4th Amendment: unreasonable search and seizure. You can’t call yourself a defender of liberty if you won’t defend it when it counts.

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

The Law Enforcement Immigration Task Force has credible leaders with credible data which supports the claim that when immigrant communities and law enforcement trust each other, crime goes down and communities are safer. Without trust of police, crimes go underreported & communities crumble. #LEITF

I confess, I have been praying that all of these fascist, kidnapping, evil hearted humans will be filled with despair, dread, and misery; that their families will feel strained, and that everything in their life will be marked by upheaval and disruption. Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer.
