I was hungry, but you passed a bill that cut funding for food stamps so billionaires could get more tax breaks.

I was thirsty, but you removed environmental protections and left me without clean water.

I was a stranger, but ICE agents arrested me and put me in a concentration camp surrounded by alligators.

I was sick, but you cut billions of dollars from Medicaid and I couldn’t get the healthcare I needed.

I was in prison, but you left me there in unconscionable conditions because you made money off of it.

Whatever you did to the least of these, my siblings, you did to me.

(how I think Jesus would have phrased Matthew 25 if he was preaching in America right now)

Republicans in Congress blocked President Biden’s attempt to cut the cost of insulin to $35 per prescription per month for everyone – including hundreds of thousands of children with Type 1 diabetes.

My favourite study of "how often does a family with small children get a respiratory infection?" is this one, from the USA:

Children <5y have one of 16 common respiratory viruses detected in a nasal swab 50% of the year!

Governor Parson called him a "law abiding citizen."

Absolutely disgusting how far bought politicians will go to do the bidding of their big donors and how little they'll do for the people they're supposed to represent.

AR-15 rifles can so mangle children's bodies that they are unrecognizable after a school shooting. Since it's politically unfeasible to act against AR-15s, school authorities need better tools to identify children's bodies.

The politicians who were furious about virtual learning when it was caused by COVID-19 are suddenly very quiet about virtual learning when it is caused by their policies defunding public education.

Pay teachers. Invest in our kids.

Florida just announced the results of an analysis that they performed, saying the results show "an increased risk of cardiac-related death among men 18-39" for the mRNA vaccines, and recommend this group not receive these vaccines.

Is this justified? Let's look at the data...

[Elad Gross 🇺🇸 @BigElad]

We in Missouri have a government that cares more about cutting taxes for the super rich than about educating our state's children.

[Alexandra Paharik @apaharik]

@Chris_SmithsJ @KenHomanSJ We were there yesterday too! That homily was amazing.

[Tiffany Cabán @tiffany_caban]

“You do you” isn’t good public health policy in a continuing pandemic. Not cute either. Call it what it is. Encouraging rugged individualism that ignores public health concerns & leaves immunocompromised & other vulnerable folks at risk. We should look out for each other. #maskup

[Elad Gross 🇺🇸 @BigElad]

The Republican plan to defund public schools has hurt the poor for a long time. Now the whole system is collapsing.

Starting pay & job support is abysmal.
State funding for schools is in the toilet.
Communities can't make up the difference.

We are trashing Missouri's future.
