It’s a poor reflection on the Navy to display insurrection and anti-government symbolism in the Navy Exchange in Maryland. The Gadsden Flag and Don’t Tread On Me symbols do not belong in the Exchange. Apparently whomever does the ordering for NEX doesn’t understand the messaging nor how the tea party and alt-right have taken the coiled snake symbol and used it to represent the overthrowing of the US government. It may seem harmless to those who don’t know, our military shouldn’t promote this.

Disability and homelessness: If you think disability support is a special thing for someone else, think again. "1 in 4 of today’s 20-year-olds can expect to be out of work for at least a year because of a disabling condition before they reach the normal retirement" Only 40 percent of US households have enough in liquid savings to cover at least three months of their recurring expenses, and only 28 percent can cover at least six months. https://disabilitycanhappen.org/disability-statistic/ #homeless #housing
The tax bill the GQP led govt passed. Yes, your taxes decreased for a couple of years, but did you know they'll increase in 2025? How many people know that, although the individual tax breaks expire, the corporate breaks don't?
The exceedingly rich, of which many created their wealth through govt subsidies, have now gotten even more subsidies via the TCJA.

Abigail was providing classroom instruction, and the 6-year-old allegedly fired 1 round: with no altercation.
She was shot through the hand due to her raising it in self-defense. It exited her hand and entered into her chest. As she was wounded, she still managed to evacuate all of her students into other classrooms, according to surveillance footage. [END 🧵]
