As we approach #America250, its important to remember:
it took 92 years to end slavery
it took women 144 years to win the vote
it took nearly 190 years for Black people to be guaranteed voting rights
it took nearly 240 years to legalize same-sex marriage
don't give up
our ancestors didn't
This maniac will take our LIFE SAVING vaccines by either banning them, or making them unattainable by raising the prices dramatically or removing insurance coverage.
But, you better believe the wealthy and connected will be vaccinating their kids.

This is my favorite picture of Stonewall.
They knew they were getting arrested just for being LGBTQ+.
Yet... they're still here, standing outside of the boarded up Stonewall Inn, smiling as the world was at a fever pitch of hatred against them.
I think about it a lot in moments like this.
"I have never seen any major politician flip on that issue quite as quickly as you did when Trump asked you to become HHS Secretary."

This is a great question for all of congress to think about.
Hypothetically,If FEMA goes away, what happens to home owners and other insurance rates ?
Climate change looks like it will make rates so high, home insurers will want equity in your house as a way of holding down rates
This is grossly irresponsible reporting by the AP. What’s being offered is not a buyout. The deal is if you agree to resign in September you can continue working remotely until then. There is no buyout or severance.

We’re exhausted—looking for leadership and starting to feel desperate. Everything feels like it’s slipping away & electeds aren’t acknowledging it, let alone speaking on it.
@dougjones.bsky.social sounds like someone who’s actually read the room. More of this!
It took one week to get Trump voters to go from “eggs need to be cheaper” to “let seniors starve”.

These women didn’t sit down, stay quiet, or ask for permission—they broke the rules and changed the world. Role models.
We should add Bishop Mariann Budde to the list.

Get cut and we all bleed the same. When you get down to it, there really aren’t many differences that separate us all from one another.
Kids just know, unless they’re indoctrinated w/ poisonous, hateful rhetoric. Teach your children well.

UPDATE: Speaker Sexton set Wednesday’s special session for 8PM 🧐— likely to push @GovBillLee’s vouchers scam through in the dark.
Plus he made the house gallery tickets-only, likely to stack it with voucher supporters… Playing shady games as they sell out our kids😳

Michael Steele delivers a genius game-plan to absolutely DERAIL the GOP.
Democrats need to STOP helping Republicans. “Let them choke on (their majority).”

Insanity: The deportation flights Trump used military jets for—that Mexico refused to accept—cost the U.S. up to $852,000 per flight to attempt to deport just 80 migrants at a time.
To compare, flights directly chartered by Immigration and Customs Enforcement cost just $8,577.
WATCH: “I’m tired of doing this. It never changes. When are we going to hold our elected officials accountable?”
Tennesseans call on @GovBillLee @tnsenategop @tnhousegop leaders to make special session about gun safety instead of scamming private school voucher dollars.
