Dear Donald Trump,

No, you don’t get immunity.

Immunity is the thing your former aides are getting for testifying against you.

Have a great day!

Here’s a fun, pre-ACA healthcare story. One day, I woke up feeling like my insides were being dissolved in acid. On the plus side, there was also vomiting. Lots of vomiting. I deluded myself into thinking “maybe it’s just a stomach bug,” & writhed on the floor next to toilet (bc vomiting) for

Four days later, doc comes in, tells me I need surgery, but rather than do it while I was there already, they would discharge me & send me to their outpatient office.

I get to the scheduled appointment & they say

“You need surgery, or this could kill you. It’ll be a $1000 down payment, upfront, or we can’t see you.” Y’all. I didn’t have two nickels to rub together, & they knew that at the hospital.

Six months later, a whole new city, & two ER visits later, I met a surgeon who was very upset I still had a

Anyways, this was life pre-ACA. As soon as expanded Medicaid went live here, I was on it. It helped me build enough records to use in my SSI case, & now I have traditional Medicaid. Now I don’t have to almost die bc I can’t call an

Republican states that refused to expand Medicaid, that’s what they’re keeping from you.

Vote GOP & we’ll be back to that in no time flat.

TODAY: Egg producers LIABLE for price fixing scheme, per new verdict by federal jury.

The 2 top egg producers, Cal Maine and Rose Acre, and 2 top industry groups, were raising and fixing egg prices.

Case now moves to a damages phase.

YES, inflation was partly price gouging.

Donald Trump is 97% as old as Joe Biden.
And 1000% more mentally damaged and dangerous.

Glad to see the spotlight shown on these Fantasy Fascist League picks by the Trump loyalists. We need to keep reminding ourselves that Trump's first (and hopefully, only) term was a shakedown cruise to learn the weaknesses in our democratic republic. The next time will be for keeps.

The weight of the world on his shoulders, enough heartbreak for 2 lifetimes, standing up to fascist bullies at home & abroad, trying his best every damn day to make life better for us all, and the man can still take & make a joke. 💛

There is really only one choice to keep our democracy vote for Biden/Harris 2024 or you are choosing to have your rights suppress even more so by not voting or voting for fascist/autocrats/Republicans/Nolabel/Independent, etc.... Vote and choose wisely. There's no do over. Every vote matters.

So glad Rachel Maddow is doing a segment on what sounds like a final decimation of the voting rights act. Earlier, @Joyannreid started her show w/this IMPORTANT story but Rachel has a larger audience. I hope her coverage will wake up even more people.
