The coolest thing about being an American right now is if I pay my taxes I’m not paying for better infrastructure, roads, or social services. I’m paying for some guy across the ocean to shoot a kid in the head with a sniper rifle. Oh, and I’m paying for his health care too.

My favorite anti-vax conspiracy theory is that pediatricians are secretly rich.
🚨Pediatricians receive bonuses of between $200 to $600 per child for vaccines, with some earning over $1 million annually. In a shocking Senate hearing, Senator Ron Johnson, Polly Tommey, and Dr. Brian Hooker revealed how pediatricians receive financial rewards for promoting

Surely liberals know that Steve Bannon is trolling them in claiming that there's a "plan" for Donald Trump to serve a third term. If not, I'll let you in on a secret. There is no plan. Donald Trump will neither seek nor serve a third term. You are being trolled--big time.

One of the hardest things to do—as someone who cares about expanding freedom, making our country healthier and safer for everyone, and reducing the powerful, harmful grip of the prison industrial complex—is to resist the urge to call for harshness toward people we may despise,

Except Louisiana was very much willing to play by those rules last yr. One of the first things @LAGovJeffLandry did as governor was push through a congressional map with another majority-Black district. It happened to take out his biggest GOP rival @garretgraves. #lalege
For nearly four decades, federal court mandates have forced a system where racial quotas take precedence over fairness. Louisiana is no longer willing to play by those rules.

Watching District A City Council results come back and breathing a sigh of relief. I’d be happy with either of these two candidates representing me.

This will be absolutely devastating in the medical field. ~30% residents are international medical graduates & ~10k of 43k residency spots are filled by docs with H1-B visas. Previously the h-1B fee was <$5,000. No hospital will pay a $100k fee for a $55k resident salary.
Trump signs an EO on H-1Bs raising "the fee that companies pay to sponsor H1-B applicants to $100,000"

If America was being bombed day and night because of something horrific our government did, and many innocent Americans and American children were being killed and traumatically injured, and we begged for mercy, but the rest of the world said, “Americans voted for their
