The USPS can't "run out of money," the sole question is the people in charge of the federal government believe delivering mail is worth funding the same way they already fund armed kidnapping gangs, concentration camps, and blowing up girls' schools.
🧵Missed diagnoses, delayed treatment and poor medical care are driving record deaths in ICE custody.
@kolyncheang.bsky.social and I spent months investigating the deaths of ICE detainees across the US. Over and over again, we found lapses in treatment that proved fatal.
NOW: B52 bombers are literally in the air on their way to Iran and hundreds of thousands of Iranians are in the streets waving flags and surrounding bridges & power plants.
Difficult to imagine this has any precedent in modern warfare.

Oudone Lothirath missed four out of five chemotherapy appointments while in ICE detention and received no medical care there. Now he will likely die in a matter of days. www.startribune.com/how-ice-deta...
NEW: For the first time, ProPublica has been able to quantify how many U.S. citizen children have been directly affected by Trump’s immigration crackdown: more than 11,000 kids had a parent detained — and that’s an undercount. 1/ 🧵

NEW: We obtained 911 audio from the Texas detention center housing hundreds of immigrant kids and their parents.
Since mid-September, EMS crews have been dispatched to Dilley at least 11 times to treat children in medical distress.
Burning fevers. Low oxygen. Seizures. A broken leg.
My report:

MAKE AN EMERGENCY DONATION to Trans Continental Pipeline right now.
They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate there and they are overwhelmed with requests. CO borders KS, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.

He has a drive to raise funds for treatments and programs he's benefitted from personally, and his empathy is boundless, in spite/because of it all. It's great to be with him back in the community at these events.

Thanks for reading. Doing a 5k/fundraiser has become something we all enjoy as a family. We had to pull our son in a wagon the first time, but even through treatment and especially now having completed treatment he is able to walk the whole thing with us and it inspires confidence in him.
Pediatrics only gets 4% of all federal cancer funding (and dropping!), and often the medications used were developed for adults, are outdated, and are extremely harsh on children. They also fund survivorship mental health programs.

2. Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation
PCRF is one of the larger funders of childhood cancer studies, research, and treatment. Their grants help researchers discover better and safer approaches to treatment in a severely underfunded field.

...introducing us to other families and organizers within the childhood cancer community that we were new too. The staff there are incredible people who help survivors and siblings navigate changed lives with positivity, compassion, and confidence. A great cause.

RMHC also offers Camp Ronald McDonald for Good Times, which we have attended as a family twice and absolutely love. Camp was one of the first things we did coming out of 10 months of intensive treatment and isolation, and it was fun and therapeutic and it started...

1. Ronald McDonald House Charities
The RM house near our children's hospital fills an overlooked yet essential gap in treatment, it's a home away from home, they treat families like family, with care and dignity and free of charge.
