[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Fourteen years ago today, I signed the Affordable Care Act into law.

Afterwards, one Republican member of the House called the ACA the “most dangerous piece of legislation ever passed in Congress.” Another predicted the country would “never recover from it.”

But then something else happened: it actually worked.

The disdain he has for workers is chilling.
He wants you to suffer. He wants you to feel desperate and needy, and to bow down and accept the least of scraps and be grateful.
Remember-his white ass has the money. People listen to him.
He’s can’t see his own arrogance.

To our surprise, we found that the cash transfer cut homelessness by 99 days, increased spending on rent, food, transit, and durable goods, and the reduced reliance on social services generated societal savings of $8,277 (net savings of $777) per person/yr.

WATCH: “The people of Ohio said to Republicans — uh, I think I’ma vote for my vote SHOULD count… this is all about the future of American democracy, y’all… it is THIS close.” 🇺🇸

As always Tennessee’s own @traecrowder has the best takes on everything 🔥

[Ben Crump @AttorneyCrump]

Police officers like this are the reason why so many Black men and women fear police encounters. 👏🏾 to this mom for standing up for her teen son and making sure this situation didn’t escalate any further.

We were surprised to see the graphic novel LITTLE ROCK NINE on the FLDOE survey results for removed books in Wakulla Schools.

We reached out for documentation on the removal, and this is what we received this morning.

Segregation & Brown v. BOE are taught in grade 4.

Many good men see the wrongs in our society, are witnessing inequality, injustice, and mistreatment. Many of these men struggle with knowing what to say, how to act, and how to make a difference. I can help you find your voice and your way. https://t.co/UGZaGAbEC2

[The Problem With Jon Stewart @TheProblem]

State Sen. Nathan Dahm (R-OK) has penned several bills loosening gun restrictions, including the nation’s first anti-red flag law. He thinks these bills protect the Second Amendment – and that they make us safer. We think it's probably one or the other. Watch it on @AppleTVPlus.

The saying goes: “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” What does that get right, what does it miss, and what are some ways you can put this strategy into practice? https://t.co/ciX1z1GWk3

In Men's Work, self-realization and self-fulfillment are goals for outcomes. The ultimate endpoint is for you to be content and satisfied, healthy and well-rested, and emotionally fulfilled and on purpose in order to be of service to the world. https://t.co/YKyskaAM3q

Who would you prefer to be: A guy sitting in the stands, not in the game? Or a man on the field, playing passionately, giving it his all? https://t.co/FnRojnZ7K4

[Raymond DePaola @SunriseJourneys]

As men, we are taught that fear is bad, feeling afraid is weakness, and showing fear is dangerous and makes us vulnerable.
So, what are you supposed to do when you see fear staring back at you in the mirror? https://t.co/mdV1vynSQd

[Raymond DePaola @SunriseJourneys]

One of my primary goals when writing is to connect with you, but there are two versions of you. Present-Day You, with challenges AND so much potential; and Future You, fully expressed and that potential unlocked.
I want to reach BOTH OF YOU. https://t.co/spWaWc3A6j

[Raymond DePaola @SunriseJourneys]

As human beings, we are all wired for connection. We all have an innate need to feel seen and heard by others, to contribute, and to know we are part of a community.

For men, it has become an increasing challenge to meet this need for connection. https://t.co/uswx0CVdFD

For Men’s Work @sunrisejourneys, I’m working with men who are ready to work and grow. I focus my energy and attention on the men who know they want to grow; who want a rich, beautiful life; who want to create new patterns for success, love, and purpose. https://t.co/YpJzC5VVh2

The first step is identifying just one thing you can change starting today. Often, though, the next step in the process can be even more important—to identify what’s getting in the way. Read the entire post. https://t.co/auCMCzAjlw

As we close out one year and begin a new one, it can be a really good time to reflect on how things are going and set intentions for what direction we want to head next. https://t.co/wFd6LJg3h2

Smell loss may be one of the most important signals of risk for Parkinson’s disease. We’re asking everyone age 60 and older without PD to take a free smell test to help scientists learn more about risk and develop new treatments.
