The day the Affordable Care Act passed was one of my proudest moments as president, because it meant that millions of Americans would have access to health care, some for the first time.
The ACA also prevented insurance companies from denying people with pre-existing conditions coverage, allowed young people under the age of 26 to remain on their parents’ plan, expanded Medicaid, and so much more.
But the ACA was always meant to be a first step. We still have to do more to expand access and make health care more affordable for everyone.
Congratulations to Indiana University and Coach Cignetti on winning their first College Football Playoff National Championship. One of the greatest turnarounds of all time.
This is called “brandishing” and when you do it to someone’s face, it is legally considered assault.
You do NOT have the right to point a gun in the face of an unarmed protestor, especially when you out number them, and have other options for de-escalation.
This is a CLEAR crime.
The United States federal government really want you to believe that this soccer mom with her lab in the car who's last words were a calm "That's fine, dude. I'm not mad at you." was a domestic terrorist. Beyond insanity.
Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city, obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”
“One day, when it’s safe, when there’s no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it’s too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this.” -Omar El Akkad
The best video evidence right now shows ICE shot a woman while she was attempting to drive away from rather than run over a federal agent. Unless something else comes out, a trigger happy fed just executed an American citizen and the Trump admin wants to cover it up. This isn’t partisan. If you think it’s partisan to demand transparency and accountability from the government in cases like these, you have terminal brain worms.
AOC: This has now become what we feared most about ICE for a long time—that it would be used as an anti-civilian force with no accountability. At the end of the day, what we saw today was a murder, and murders in cold blood need to be prosecuted.
