Father points out the personal impact of our neglect of adequate wages for caregivers cofarblog.com/2023/05/30/fat… via @DavidKassel
Coretta Scott King wrote these words 23 LONG years ago. "It poorly serves the cause of justice to allow such a thoroughly discredited conviction to stand and to cause further pain and suffering for Mr. Peltier." @KevinHSharp @jbendery @VP @MMFlint @POTUS #freeleonardpeltier
"It is clear that our criminal justice failed Mr. Peltier," Sen. Mazie Hirono said of the Native American rights activist still in prison after nearly 50 years. huffpost.com/entry/mazie-hi… # via @HuffPostPol
Leonard Peltier has been in prison since the end of the Vietnam war. His case was featured on 60 Minutes three times. But now an entire new generation needs to learn his name. 46 years later he still waits in a concrete and steel cage. @KevinHSharp @jbendery #FreeLeonardPeltier
The FBI put Native American activist Leonard Peltier in prison 44 years ago based on lies, threats and no proof he committed a crime. Why is he still there? huffpost.com/entry/leonard-… via @HuffPostPol
It’s not left vs right, it’s the people vs. a system designed to turn us against each other.
Recent emergency open heart surgery, diabetes, untreated abdominal aortic aneurism, chronic maxillofacial jaw problems, prostate issues. Years in solitary confinement. Now 76 with 45 years in prison. Release him now. @KevinHSharp @ChairmanAzure #freeleonardpeltier
Leonard Peltier has been in prison so long that many of his friends and supporters are now gone. Coretta Scott King, John Lewis, Mother Teresa, Nelson Mandela and so many more. Why is he still in prison at 76? @KevinHSharp @SecDebHaaland @POTUS @VP @NCAI1944 #freeleonardpeltier
The American Rescue Plan includes a 7.35% increase in federal Medicaid match and a 100% FMAP match for COVID vaccination/treatment for people with disabilities who live in "community" settings. It does not extend to people with disabilities who live in "institutions."
Gov’s proposed FY22 DDS budget would boost provider-run group home funding, but cut day program and transportation funding cofarblog.com/2021/02/02/gov…
Movies made. Books written. Several appearances on 60 Minutes. Learn about the Leonard Peltier story. He is 76 in failing health. 45 years in prison. He needs compassionate release NOW! @realDonaldTrump @KevinHSharp @Tantooc @FLOTUS @IvankaTrump @jaredkushner #FreeLeonardPeltier
Leonard Peltier waits in a cage. Severe health problems. 45 years in prison and now 76. The whole world knows his trial was an assault on jurisprudence. Where is the justice? Why is he still in prison? @realDonaldTrump @KevinHSharp @Tantooc @FL @IvankaTrump #freeleonardpeltier
Recent emergency open heart surgery, diabetes, heart, lung problems and more. 75 years old. 44 years in prison. Covid raging outside. If not justice, can we get mercy? Release him. @realDonaldTrump @KevinHSharp @IvankaTrump @VanJones68 @NCAI1944 @FLOTUS #freeleonardpeltier
Nicholas Sandman, given a national platform on which to air his grievances, cannot possibly understand what it is to be “canceled.” People with significant developmental disabilities who can't speak for themselves have been truly canceled. cofarblog.com/2020/08/24/why… via @DavidKassel
Peltier sits in his cell in Florida in the midst of a raging pandemic. Vulnerable, sick and weakened by 44 years in prison. If it gets in he will almost certainly not survive. Free him now. @realDonaldTrump @KevinHSharp @IvankaTrump @FLOTUS @jaredkushner #freeleonardpeltier

@MonicaHesse When we stop asking questions we cease to be a democracy. Asking questions allows further exploration of a topic - any topic. The fact that any question asked about the trans issue is immediately seen as transphobic is the reason in & of itself, people should be asking questions
@MonicaHesse This is the clearest example of confirmation bias I have ever seen. You have decided she is a bigot, so you interpret pro-women tweets as anti-trans. No wonder it’s exhausting for you, constantly having to twist her words to find “bigotry” you “know” must be there somewhere.
@MonicaHesse Searching for evidence to back up a conclusion you arrived at based on no evidence will do that to you
@MonicaHesse People like you are exhausting. Desperate to tar and feather someone who has a different opinion to you. Hinting at hidden bigotry, whilst displaying a startling lack of self-awareness of your own. Sort yourself out. It's embarrassing.

Having now met dozens - or hundreds - of people whom I’d previously seen in the media and gotten a different impression of in-person, I now take any media depiction with an enormous grain of salt.
$14 billion was spent on turning Americans against each other over the last election cycle - all in service of a system that is leading us nowhere good. How much is being spent on reforming the system?
