Great reason for the Progressive party formation.

My GOP Rep will vote for it no matter how often I tell him not to. Wish I could skip paying my taxes.

Same here in #Oklahoma.

You cannot retroactively challenge a process that was known, public, and lawful simply because you lost. That’s what Trump and MAGA Republicans are trying to do instead of respecting the will of Virginia voters. And MAGA will fail.

Holy sh*t!!

I CAN’T believe DEMOCRATS actually made this ad!!! BRAVO!!

We Shouldn’t Fear Being “Divisive” in Pursuit of Justice We shouldn’t pretend that movements like BDS aren’t “divisive.” Instead, we need to make the moral and ethical case for why that divisiveness is necessary.

"Palestinians and progressives supporting our rights are making a clear demand to do no harm, and to end complicity. Is it divisive? You bet it is. Demanding justice and resisting injustice have always been, by definition, controversial, but they’ve also always been ethically necessary."

Report details tetanus in 4 unvaccinated US kids, including refusal of post-exposure prevention

The parents of four unvaccinated kids who got tetanus also refused preventive shots after an injury.

The result was hospital stays averaging 25 days, along with needless cost and suffering. Expect more of the same as anti-vax sentiment takes hold.
