I had a suicidal patient brought in against her will. She was suicidal because of financial issues. She asked me if she would get a bill for her forced hospitalization, which is the case. She will likely be billed thousands of dollars. That’s American healthcare for you.
Biden’s about to show a whole lot more empathy for Trump’s little ear booboo than he ever did for the tens of thousands of Palestinian children he helped kill
On Saturday, Kamala Harris refused to allow Muslim women into her campaign event in Las Vegas out of fear that they would press her on a ceasefire. Really disgusting behavior for elected democrats to be profiling like this.
Keir Starmer confronted in Glasgow by angry pro Palestine protestors. Good on Starmer for staying composed, but this rising tide of abuse and aggression is deeply unsettling. Politicians shouldn’t have to put up with this.
It’s fucking insane that this guy is out here tweeting shit like “families should be able to fly together without paying extra fees” while he’s blowing children to bits in the Middle East
You ought to be able to fly with your child – and sit next to them – without paying an additional fee.
It's time all airlines offered fee free family seating.
It’s really too bad because we could have built a world where we work a little bit but mostly just hang out and have a good time but instead we got this shithole
Let’s be very clear- Israel is choosing to murder all the hostages instead of negotiating their release. So please fuck off with all the “bring them home” nonsense if you support this genocide.
I have to admit it’s sort of funny in a very fucked up way that the US is falling apart and the democrats are just like “we have to send $18 billion to Israel right away”
Zelensky has dissolved the opposition and arrested more than 600 members of the government for being critical of him, but the Western narrative says he is fighting for democracy
@doctor_cabral
Leftists and Islamists their ability for logical thought. The ends do not justify the means. God gave the land to Israel. You can't deny that.
I know a lot of liberal voters think democracy is on the line but I think it’s important to point out that “you only have one choice because every other choice leads to dictatorship” is also not democracy
Half the Zionists in my mentions are denying the use of white phosphorus, the other half are justifying it. Truly the worst propagandists on the planet.
lmao my med school brought in a Guatemalan guy to teach about Latin American culture and he’s teaching all my fuckhead right-wing classmates about the coup the CIA did on behalf of the United Fruit Company and I am so here for it
If this happens, democrats will fail to appoint a replacement, use the seat as a political cudgel in 2024, lose, let a republican be appointed, and blame the left. Wash and repeat.
If Reagan were alive today and had the exact same policy positions as he had in the 80s but just occasionally tweeted shit like “love is love” he would be on the Dem presidential ticket
The National Guard and 250 additional police officers will carry out random bag checks and help patrol New York City’s subway system amid a spike in high-profile crimes, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul announced on Wednesday.
The billionaire Resnick family has been lobbying for years to start a war with Iran because Iran is competition to their pistachio business. The US is such a dystopian shithole that it’s being pushed toward World War over a snack food.
Of course, it’s nice everyone noting how wonderful and happy she looks.
But it’s hard not to see her and think that, in a just world, this should be her State Dinner in the 8th year of her presidency.
It’s crazy because Joe Biden broke all his campaign promises and has been a horrible president, but if he simply drew the line at genocide and were willing to hold Israel accountable for their crimes against humanity I would be inclined to vote for him. But he won’t so I won’t.
Libraries change lives and societies for the better, and we need to protect them with everything we’ve got.

blue MAGA did a full 180 from “you don’t get a primary, Biden is the incumbent”

these are not serious people
NPR just said Russia lures young men into their death by using money and opportunity to get them to join the military. How exactly is this different than the US military?
Remember when Indian farmers organized the largest protests in the history of the world and Western media ignored it, then a couple thousand Cubans protested for a day and Western media covered it for a week?
A fascist plowed his car into a group of mutual aid volunteers providing food to unhoused residents in Reno, Nevada yesterday, injuring several and killing one. But you wouldn’t know it if you read the news because right wing violence is normal in this shithole country.
@PourGuyArt
If I owned the ER docs group (I don’t) I could decide to write off my portion of the bill (I can’t) and they would still get charged thousands by the hospital. Almost as if this is a systemic problem that I can’t fix by myself and maybe you should join me in advocating for reform
We are not watching US institutions fail. We are watching them succeed at what they were designed to do - protect a powerful minority from the will of the masses.
If Joe Biden runs for re-election in 2024, he’s going to lie again and say he’ll cancel student loan debt and liberals will be like “he really means it this time!!”
I disagree with the “human shield” framing, but even if you do believe that, you’re not fucking supposed to shoot human shields. What is wrong with you people?
A patient I have makes $1400/month. His insulin costs $700/mo. His blood thinners, which prevent him from having a stroke, cost $500/mo. Our immoral healthcare system forces people to make this impossible choice. What are they supposed to do?

@sar_oso
You may think you’re a liberal, but really you’re a fascist doing propaganda for a far right theocratic ethnostate. Shame on you.
The US “left” criticizing Latin American socialists when leftists are winning all over Latin America and Western countries are collapsing toward fascism is so depressing
It’s so dumb how they gave Barack Obama the Nobel Peace Prize for not being George W. Bush, then it turned out he actually was George W. Bush, then liberals decided they actually love George W. Bush.
NPR pushing hard for a no-fly zone, saying the Russian invasion of Ukraine is the worst act of aggression in the 21st century.
Anyway, NPR supported the US invasion of Iraq in 2003 which resulted in over 1 million Iraqis killed.

"You refuse to call it a genocide" - handful of protesters chase after Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez at a Brooklyn movie theater, "You gonna cut it and take it out of context, I already said that it was" - AOC responded to protesters claims on refusing word "Genocide" , "This is
The fact that Biden and the Democrats failed to cancel student loan debt and now will proceed to resume payment collection will almost surely lose the 2024 election for them
So let me get this straight, Malcolm X’s daughter released a letter that showed the feds framed Malcolm X’s security guards and they were arrested, leaving him unguarded when he was assassinated. Then documents show that witnesses to his assassination were bureau informants,
Fascist Brazilian president Bolsonaro forgave student debt but Joe Biden won’t? This mf is really to the right of Bolsonaro and liberals are still defending him. God damn I hate it here.
