🧵 An open letter to the US Open and USTA:

Trump will attend the #USOpen as a guest of ROLEX. Yesterday, Trump declared 'WAR' on Chicago. The USTA has called for media censorship of dissent against Trump today.

I played NCAA tennis many years ago and still play. Today I resign my #USTA membership.

Take a moment to appreciate Harry Truman‘s negotiating skills. He got Hitler to surrender everything, agree to Germany’s occupation and then shoot himself in the head.

#usopen | The Female Quotient With the #USOpen underway, we're highlighting one of the many stories that have been sidelined from history. Althea Gibson loved tennis. But the world of tennis didn't exactly love her back. It was a...

✊ Althea Gibson was the first Black player to participate in the US Open in 1950. She became the first Black woman to compete at Wimbledon and the first Black woman to win a Grand Slam tennis tournament. In total, Gibson won five Grand Slam singles titles. #USOpen

In response to the MAGA regime releasing information about Dr. Martin Luther King’s assassination, his daughter Bernice King delivered epic shade.

It's Topo Gigio!

Lilly Livered Lawyers: PROTEST @ Paul Weiss & Willkie, Farr for bending over for trump

Meanwhile, law firm Alston & Bird, with 800 lawyers in 13 offices worldwide, is standing strong on Diversity & Inclusion. Some law firms won’t accede to Trump’s demand to disavow DEI.

The four law firms that it was announced are now Trump collaborators -- Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins, Simpson Thacher, and A&O Shearman Sterling -- ALSO agreed today to "Disavow DEI" as part of a settlement with EEOC.

Why would any new associate join such a place? Why would any partner stay?

“Kids are sponges. They just absorb everything,” which is why we need to pour the steak sauce on NOW, while they’re still porous.

What would the QAnon people have done with THIS if it had been a Democrat?! 😂

yup

📌Keep an eye on Maine's Jared Golden. Once again he voted WITH Republicans to take away people's rights and HURT them in supporting this disgusting SAVE Act.

📌I lived in Maine and understand the politics in that state, but I will never understand hateful, cowardice bastards like Golden.

Today would be a great day to ban members of Congress and their families from trading stocks.

The SAVE act MUST NOT PASS the Senate.

Call your senators every day and urge them to vote against this bill.

Here’s a list of contact numbers for all 100 senators.

Marie Gluesenkamp Perez - D-WA:

SHE VOTED FOR THE SAVE ACT to take away women’s rights to vote! She will be having several town halls this month (details in pics). Go there and give her a piece of your mind if you live in Washington State (call her office!):

Those Medicaid cuts? They come from the Energy & Commerce Committee. Here's a list of the members. If we can get a majority of these people to vote no, it's stuck there (unless the House gives up on the official committee process, forcing the Senate to do it)

Committee Members | House Agriculture Committee Committee Members Glenn "GT" Thompson Committee Chairman R-PA-15 Angie Craig Ranking Member D-MN-02 Republican Members Frank Lucas OK-03 Austin Scott GA-08 Rick Crawford AR-01 Scott DesJarla...

Those SNAP cuts? They come from the Agriculture Committee. Here's the list of the members. Same deal. We have to try to stop there here.

The House just passed its budget resolution, so reconciliation is now officially underway. This is their bill to destroy Medicaid and SNAP while cutting taxes disproportionately for the rich.

THIS IS VERY REAL and can be enacted even if all Ds vote no.

Thread on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT.

Grant cares about other people.

That's it. That's everything.

Be like Grant. Care about other people. And act on that care.

This.
