Elder abuse is now considered a social determinant of health, as recognized by Andy Mao, Elder Justice Coordinator with the U.S. Dept. of Justice. Good links in this article to tools for the warning signs of elder abuse. https://health.gov/news/202204/may-older-americans-month-elder-abuse-social-determinant-health

Corpses have more rights than women.

Today, May 5, is the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (#MMIW).

The Lakota Law Project has compiled a list of reports, hotlines, and resources for impacted families, students, or anyone seeking to learn more about this crisis.

#WhyWeWearRed

https://www.lakotalaw.org/news/2020-05-01/mmiw-resource-guide

You can wear RED today to stand in solidarity with the missing and their families.

Please post with hashtags #MMIW #MMIWG #NoMoreStolenSisters or #NativeAmerican

SCOTUS is a self-regulating body with no ethics rules. We know justice Thomas is a sexual harrasser. We know justice Kavanaugh is a sexual assaulter. Are we really expected to believe they wouldn't force their victims to terminate an incriminating pregnancy?

The GOP/Conservative co-conspirators have done everything in their power to undermine any investigation into the coup attempt on January 6th...these same individuals now want an immediate investigation into the SCOTUS draft leak, followed by criminal prosecution of the leaker. Let me remind everyone that justice Thomas's wife, Ginni, was a co-conspirator in the coup and Thomas didn't recuse himself...
#SCOTUS #hypocrisy

At 22%, Catholics are the single largest religious group in the US.

Disproportionately, 66.67% of SCOTUS Justices are Catholic.

Two-thirds of the nation's most powerful deliberative body ([6 out of 9] including Thomas, Alito, Barrett, Kavanaugh, Roberts and Sotomayor) are members of the Catholic church--society's OG pro-birth institution.

This over-represention on the court is clearly detrimental the rights, freedoms, and lives of women.

Big Oil giant Chevron QUADRUPLED its first-quarter profits from 2021, while their buddy Exxon's profits DOUBLED.

And yet, gas prices keep on rising.

Take a stand and tell world leaders to make polluters pay:

How do deal with 521 errors, a primer:

1. When browsing CoSo, you notice a little "521" bubble in the bottom left corner.
2. DON'T DO ANYTHING!
3. Wait about a minute. You will see a few more 521's.
4. Then you will see a few 502's.
5. A few moments later, CoSo is usually back online. #CoSoTips

Data brokers are selling information on women visiting Planned Parenthood and other clinics offering abortion services... Profiting off of despair and pain, these people are truly evil.

"Differences of Opinion" (this is good... very fitting for our times)

They just started:
"Alito's draft opinion explicitly criticizes Lawrence v. Texas (legalizing sodomy) and Obergefell v. Hodges (legalizing same-sex marriage). He says that, like abortion, these decisions protect phony rights that are not "deeply rooted in history."
