Finally! The first Garden Update™ of the year! A few of you have been asking for a while, but there wasn’t anything to show yet thanks to our spring snow and a few setbacks with my seeds. But more things are growing, so expect to see more through the summer!

Get to know Joe Biden

politijohn:

politijohn:
Led the fight against desegregating schools even years after it had been proven a success and defended by Republicans.
Voted for the disastrous Iraq War and still says he’d “do it again.”
Wrote the racist Crime Bill that intentionally led to record-breaking mass incarceration, positioning himself to the right of even Reagan and Bush.
Opposed Roe v Wade and voted to allow states to overturn it like they are now, worked to undermine the ACA’s coverage of birth control, does “not view abortion as a choice and a right” and still opposed federal funding for it multiple times including during this election.
Long history of creepily groping/sniffing/kissing/grabbing/condescending women and young girls so many times, even including intimidation and continuing even now after his non-apology.
Racist comments like this and fondness towards if not impassioned support for so many of the worst racists and segregationists like this whom he chose to work with, as well as Republicans like George Bush, Dick Cheney, Mike Pence, and Jeb Bush.
Generally has no understanding of racism in America
As part of his crusade against desegregating schools he was the only member of the Senate Judiciary Committee to block two black appointees to the Department of Justice.
Lies about marching in the Civil Rights movement multiple times, and seems to lie about attending an HBCU.
Horrible treatment of Anita Hill during Clarence Thomas hearing.
Supports cutting Social Security and Medicare and raising the retirement age on multiple occasions, backing Paul Ryan’s efforts to do so, while voting to gut welfare.
Led the disastrous War on Drugs, and somehow still opposes cannabis legalization, yet two of his children escaped consequences for drug use.
Pushed to expand death penalty, even to those on drug charges.
Sided with banks to overturn Glass-Steagall and deregulate, leading to financial crisis.
Led the disastrous Bankruptcy Bill resulting in increased debt and dismisses the plight of Millennials who are now the most indebted generation ever.
Defends billionaires hoarding wealth and promises to ensure it keeps happening at the expense of everyone else while voting to slash the top income tax rate and cripple the estate tax, resulting in $83 billion lost annually.
Opposes Medicare for All while he and his campaign lie about it what it would entail. Wants to bring back penalizing those who can’t afford to pay for private insurance. He continues to praise Big Pharma to his ultra-wealthy donors and is the only candidate to refuse to meet with disabled healthcare activist Ady Barkan.
Was the only senator to vote against expanding a child care tax credit.
Originally claimed he “doesn’t have time” to propose his own healthcare plan, then proposed one that would kill 125,000 Americans and leave over 10 million uninsured (which he’s lied about) in a rollout sponsored by Big Pharma (even his own wife admits he’s not good on healthcare, and he’s let slip the true reality of his proposal)
Personally fought to make cancer medication unaffordable for patients in developing nations.

Texas closes hundreds of polling sites, making it harder for minorities to vote -

formaldehyde–face:

wtfisgoingonews:
ALRIGHTY EVERYONE if you are planning on voting in the primary tomorrow and all you upcoming primary states here’s what you need to know:
There will 100% be fuckery when it comes to closing polling sites unexpectedly or switching locations without notice. This already happened in other primaries this year and I live in AZ & we dealt with this in 2016 where it was taken to court AND FOUND TO BE LITERAL VOTER SUPPRESSION but nobody got in trouble and nothing was done.
So I’m just telling y’all who plan to vote EXPECT there to be shit that goes wrong because 👏🏽they 👏🏽don’t 👏🏽want 👏🏽you 👏🏽to 👏🏽vote. People in AZ were seriously waiting 8+ hours so if you’re going tomorrow make sure to bring water, dress for the weather in case lines are outside, and bring ID!! Some places will go smoothly, but it’s good to come prepared!
Also, your employer is legally required to allow you to go vote - I know all this doesn’t really mean shit at some places, and some of y’all literally can’t miss the work - but for those of you that can get that time off and go vote because anything’s better than being at work lol
Friends out there in ~~Texas~~ EVERYWHERE USA, giddy up on to your phone or social media and make sure all of your family, friends, neighbors, etc are up to date on where and when to vote.
