We need to make sure CalCare passes this time. Our healthcare system is diseased, run with profit-making motives and costing us so much more than any other country with a single-payer healthcare system.

From a family member in Iran:
[1/23, 9:13 AM] Shahrzad: They killed so many people, they killed so many innocent people—oh my God, it’s horrifying.
Every piece of news Iran has released is a lie, all lies.
They killed everyone themselves 😭
On Thursday, (January 8), and Friday, (January 9), millions of people were out in the streets—all across Iran. People came out because they don’t want these scumbags to exist anymore.
And they shot ordinary, unarmed civilians. We didn’t know what was really happening from outside Iran, but now that I see it, honestly, huge respect to all of you for the support you gave from outside the country 🌱🥹
Now everyone’s eyes are on Trump, hoping he will strike and put an end to them, because with empty hands, only innocent people have been killed.
