Today 43 Republicans voted to keep insulin at $1200/mo instead of $35. Tomorrow every Republican will ask you to be outraged that gas is $5 instead of $3.
In the GOP world, $1200 for life saving insulin in fair play but $5 for gas is an outrage.
Vote them all out.
ONE mass shooting happens in a different country & now all the americans wanna talk about how “regulations don’t work”. We’ve had two mass shootings in the last 10 years. You’ve had 68 in june.
Today, the Supreme Court not only reversed nearly 50 years of precedent, it relegated the most intensely personal decision someone can make to the whims of politicians and ideologues—attacking the essential freedoms of millions of Americans.
An 11-year-old who survived the school shooting in Texas went into survival mode and put someone's blood on herself to pretend she was dead. The classmate next to her died and then saved her life. This is the kind of trauma you hear from an active war zone, not a 4th grade class.
This is a brutal piece, but it's beautifully put together and presented.
It's a harrowing read, but hold your hand to the fire and go through it if you can. A good reminder of why we need to take care of ourselves and each other.

The average rent in the US hit a new record high of $1,827 last month. On the federal minimum wage of $7.25 people take home $1256 a month. People aren't exaggerating when they say it's becoming unlivable here.
The federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour. And that pay rate has been stuck there since 2009, while inflation and the cost of living have steadily, and then rather sharply in the last few months, risen for decades.
