I had chemo in 2020 which means I sat alone (b/c, the pandemic) with my hands/feet immersed in ice and have been nauseous/ constipated and lost my hair, eyebrows and eyelashes.

This has been worse. I’d rather get chemo all over again than get back on the phone w/@EmblemHealth 9/

People deserve to have the right of free healthcare. It should be one of the main functions of the government to care for the well being of the people. Oh wait it is but that part is ignore in favor of profit. We need universal expanded Medicare for all

We gave tax cuts to ‘job creators’.

Billionaire campaign donations per election
Before Citizens United: $31 million
Now: $1.2 billion

Citizens United was 12 years ago today. It is the Patient Zero for most of our modern problems.

Don’t let the Republicans off the hook. Scottie

Biden acknowledges he didn't anticipate how much opposition he would face from Rs.

Which is something bc much of the 2020 primary was everyone yelling at him that he was failing to anticipate how much opposition he would face from Rs after he promised they'd have an "epiphany."

Justice Roberts, this shame is on you. Your legacy is that of vengeful racism. You destroyed voting rights for millions. You are the architect of undermining election integrity and global disenfranchisement of non-white voters.

Conservative policies are about isolation and lonerism. Inclusion is a threat.

We are a society of different people, and that scares people who only value whiteness.

no unicorns in zoo

Republicans have weaponized their fragile snowflake rhetoric to protect their own racism.

‘Don’t hurt my feelings’ is GOP top agenda.

dumping eveidence on trump

Family values.

Loveless, humorless, moral blanks can survive with ease in conservative politics.

Just to protect whiteness.

Misleading right wing media cartoons / memes

Yeah, Lisa! Nothing worse than preventing the country from crumbling into the rubble of a third world nation! Good thing the Obstructionist party is hard at work preventing progress and making sure needless defense contracts keep getting filled! Scottie

Hillary has not even hinted at running. The right loves that they have made her such a boogieman after 30 years of attacks and they can not wait to trot her out to scare their base. It is that simple. No one in the Democratic party has wanted her to run again, it is just the left hoping to gin up outrage in the cult. Republicans had an opportunity to prevent this twice by voting to convict Trump. Republicans can also prevent Trump from running by taking him to task for his lies about voter fraud. They can also stop rigging the system in order to make it harder for people to vote and creating a situation where Republicans can overturn any election results they don’t like. Meanwhile, it is unlikely Hillary will be running since there is a Democrat in the White House. Besides what is the big deal? The Republican Party failed to lock her up, so it looks like she did nothing wrong. Scottie

I am seeing versions of this everywhere. It is very misleading. Democrats do not mind ID, but we are against the Republican ID requirements that make ID’s nearly impossible for some people to get and they accept only certain ID’s they think their voters might have no matter how obscure while denying popular forms of ID’s that Democratic voters might have.

Woman tells Jewish children ‘Hitler should have killed you all,’ then spits on one of them outside Brooklyn synagogue: cops

https://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/nyc-crime/ny-brooklyn-woman-spits-on-jewish-children-20220120-fwsvzimrqfefvpeew626alwna4-story.html

A hateful antisemite spat on an 8-year-old Jewish boy outside a Brooklyn synagogue, cruelly telling the youngster and his friends that “Hitler should have killed you all,” cops said Wednesday.

The woman, dressed in an orange hoodie, black leggings and black Uggs, can be seen on surveillance video storming up to the boy and two other children on Avenue P near Coleman St. in Marine Park just after 12:30 p.m. Friday.

NYPD are looking for a woman wanted for an aggravated harassment incident in front of 4017 Avenue P on Jan. 14. (DCPI)

The children were standing in front of the Kehal Tiferet Avrohom Ziditshov Orthodox synagogue, according to cops.

The woman stood in front of them and shouted, “Hitler should have killed you all. I’ll kill you and know where you live,” cops said. She then spat, turned around and walked off, they said.

Police describe her as a woman in her 20s with a light complexion, about 5-foot-3 and 140 pounds, with long black hair.

Cops ask anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS.

There is a clear video of the woman going out of her way to walk up to the boy and doing what she did, then turning around and walking away at the link above. Scottie
