Trump is scum, but at least he does what his voters want/οΏΌ What he says he is going to do. Biden and the Democrats just flat out ignore the will of 80% of Democrat votersοΏΌ. But Biden is going to β€œsave democracy” πŸ€”

Securing housing for street homeless mentally ill/chemically dependent people. She spent her last years enjoying retirement still advocating for disabled people and LGBTQ+ causes. She will be greatly missed by the many who had the pleasure of knowing her, and the world is worse off without her in it

She also traveled to Cuba a few times to meet with Afeni in the 80s and 90s. She always supported social justice associations, and went back to school for her masters after Frank died in 1990, and worked as a counselor for disabled students at Hunter College and afterwards as a program director -

Who helped her through the 9 or so days she was in inpatient hospice.
Her wishes are for direct cremation, no services. Donations in her name can be made to Pet’s Alive where she adopted her last 2 Bull dogs. @kelliblue.bsky.social has adopted her dog and 2 cats.

Sry I haven’t been on for a few days. Barbara passed on Monday in hospice and it’s been a tough couple days. Her GFM is no longer accepting donations, but I want to thank everyone who donated. She hadn’t raised enough funds to pay for home hospice, but your donations went toward a private aid 1/?

Bell had it made illegal to connect any equipment to the phone system that wasn’t owned by them. This guy Lippman had invented the answering machine and it really screwed him over.

Wait, Trump does exactly what the people who vote for him want, and Democrats refuse to do what their voters want, but we are supposed to believe voting for Democrats is what’s going to save democracy?

Hi. I’m way over 60 and Jewish and my Dem Rep is younger than me and I call him every day to remind him I voted for him as long as he’s been in office and I support a ceasefire. PS the average age of Republican reps is 57.

Those Who Say β€œa Cease-Fire Won’t Work” Are Wrong. Here’s Why. There are four arguments people often make to support Israel’s bombing campaign, and all of them are hollow.

Direct quote from Israeli Defense Minister:"The Americans insisted and we are not in a place where we can refuse them. We rely on them for planes and military equipment. What are we supposed to do? Tell them no?” Quote is from www.thenation.com/article/arch...

Neither of my Michigan senators have sent any responses and I've emailed them almost daily for a month now.

My rep sent one response at the beginning blaming it on Egypt and then nothing since.

My Representative and Senators are completely ignoring me, and are losing my vote. Usually I get a form letter that doesn't address why I wrote; on this subject, silence.

Democratic Staffers Told To Let Constant Calls For Cease-Fire β€˜Go To Voicemail’ Congressional staff say the mood inside the Capitol is tense, stifling and bewildering as members brush off their constituents’ outrage.

Congressional staffers say an onslaught of calls and emails asking for members to support a cease-fire has caught Dems completely off-guard.

β€œI’ve never seen such a disconnect between where voters and constituents are and where Congress is"

At the time of writing, our staff are witnessing people being shot at as they attempt to flee the Al-Shifa hospital.

MSF urgently reiterates its calls to stop the attacks against hospitals, for an immediate ceasefire and for the protection of medical facilities, medical staff and patients.
