The problem is bigger than any one abuser, like Nassar—it includes ALL enablers. Without a real investigation, we can’t know who they are, what they knew & what they did or didn’t do.

Theres something so American about thinking a pandemic affecting the globe is actually all about ur government trying to control you

To see death and destruction on astronomical levels in other countries but decide this was all for the chance to microchip & further subjugate you

Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman calls for an independent inquiry into the FBI’s botched Larry Nassar investigation.

“I think anyone should be able to go into gymnastics and feel safe knowing that they have the answers and that the people that enabled this aren't in power anymore.”

Maybe I am a little bit of a radical, but I happen to think that in the richest country on the face of the planet, people should not have to be cutting their pills in half or rationing their insulin.

What’s happening in Afghanistan currently is a humanitarian crisis.

Let’s be clear: there has never been, and will never be, a U.S. military solution in Afghanistan.

Our top priority must be providing humanitarian aid & resettlement to Afghan refugees, women, and children.
