Exactly. I mean people are talking about getting rid of the department of education AND raising the voting age to 25… 25?!?! (Unless you pass a test?) this is clearly targeting certain groups by the way and nobody bats and eye

Part of the reason political coverage is broken is because the media constantly frames it like it’s a sporting event, which greatly diminishes its importance. The people debating last night are vying to hold the most important position in this country, and frankly a lot of what was said was dangerous. Present it that way.

This is the most pernicious belief about African people who were enslaved. It is, intentionally or not, how we justify the sins of slavery: The belief that Africans had no particular knowledge or skills or value outside of brute labor. It's ahistorical and illogical.

Something that has haunted me this past year. As the Rangers asked what he was wearing, I didn’t know and had to ask my wife.
A year today since I heard his voice, heard him say I love you, heard him bound up the stairs.
A year since I saw his contagious smile.

While tomorrow is the one year mark of the Robb Elementary Massacre in Uvalde, today around 10 P.M. is the last time I saw Uzi, as I told him to go to bed, ruffled his hair and told him I loved him. I didn’t see him on the 24th as I left for work before the kids got up for school

Just a heads-up - Midjourney's AI can now do hands correctly. Be extra critical of any political imagery (especially photography) you see online that is trying to incite a reaction.

Charlotte, I couldn’t agree more.
Women lose thousands of dollars each year, and hundreds of thousands over a lifetime, because of gender and racial wage gaps.
I’m committed to building an economy where my daughters have the same rights and opportunities as my sons.

Colorado police had no legal authority to stop Elijah McClain who died when he was detained and injected with Ketamine😭
Elijah McClain played the violin to calm shelter kittens while he was on his lunch break. He was a gentle soul💔

And before you “investigate the FBI” to obstruct their investigations into you and others, you might want to brush up on the FBI Manual of Investigative Operations and Guidelines (MIOG) so you don’t ask any more dumb questions.

1) because Trump obstructed justice by failing to comply with a subpoena. Biden volunteered all docs.
2) It’s standard procedure for the FBI to photograph everything they find during a search warrant.
In the future, feel free to reach out to me directly with your questions.
Why was President Trump’s home raided but not President Biden’s?
Why did the FBI take pictures of President Trump’s so-called classified documents but not President Biden’s?
Americans are tired of the double standard.
Dems hanging onto the Senate in this environment is one of the most remarkable political stories.
And it’s largely thanks to voters under 30, women, and black voters.
Remember that when the media unleashes a *wave* of old, white, ossified men to tell you what to think.

🧵1. A post on FB…
“I am 14 and I’m struggling in algebra class. When I ask for help, the male teacher says, ‘I’m not surprised girls aren’t that good at algebra’.
I am 18 and go to my first fraternity party with girlfriends…
