If I ever have another job interview, and someone asks “Why do you think you could do this job? You’ve never done anything like this before...”
I will proceed to tell them the story of teaching during a pandemic...

This has been sitting on our kitchen counter for months.
I won’t lie— it brings us a small measure of solace…

Things you could do in the United State for a trillion dollars (instead of have it accumulate to one person):
1. End homelessness
2. End poverty
3. Healthcare for every child
4. Universal free college
5. Universal clean, cheap energy
6. Cure cancer

.@PeteButtigieg is right on 13 justices & need 18-year term limits.
Republicans took the Court to 10 under Lincoln, cut it under Johnson, & expanded it to 9 under Grant. FDR's plan ended the Lochner Court. Our generation must reform the modern Dred Scott Court.
Buttigieg: Nowhere in the Constitution does it say that there have to be nine Supreme Court justices. That one doesn't even take a constitutional amendment. It just takes a readiness to set up a court that fits this country.
We could have 13 seats matching the district structure of the federal judiciary, but also a process that makes it less partisan. We cannot have partisan warfare every time there's an opening on the court

YES. WOW!! Thank you, @PeteButtigieg advocating for ADDING SEATS to the Supreme Court because term limits don't go far enough. THIS is what will get my vote in 2028. No good law passed will survive this rogue Supreme Court.

Such a simple fix America…
“If all income in excess of $400,000 were subject to the Social Security payroll tax, Social Security’s solvency would be guaranteed forever. We could also expand Social Security benefits.”

Thanks to Trump's tax cuts for the rich, Social Security's trustees warn the program will be unable to pay out full benefits by 2032.
There's only one way to reverse this trend.
Scrap the cap on income subject to Social Security taxes.

😱😱😱 And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media.
A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.
Lets make this viral again 👇

Because of your voice on Delaney Hall, the Trump admin just released 18 yr old high school senior whose story I told. They released the pregnant women held inside. These releases show ICE isn’t targeting the violent criminals. ICE is feeling the pressure. Keep raising your voice.

There's a major civil rights protest taking place in Selma, Alabama, right now in response to the SCOTUS decision that weakened the Voting Rights Act and the ongoing attack on Black Americans’ political power

These gerrymandered maps only work if we don’t show up.
That is what they are counting on.
These maps will break under the pressure of turnout.

🚨 🇺🇸MAJOR BREAKING: They are marching across the Edmund Pettus Bridge again.
61 years after Bloody Sunday. The same bridge. The same fight.
Today in Selma, thousands are gathering at the spot where Alabama state troopers beat peaceful Black marchers in March 1965.
That beating shocked the country into passing the Voting Rights Act five months later.
This week the Supreme Court finished gutting it.

AOC: “It is time for the North to pull up to the South and let them know exactly what they have uncorked with this injustice. They think they can draw us out of power. They do not know the sleeping giant they just awakened. What they thought was the final blow is actually just the opening silo”

AOC: “MAGA is the last dying breath of the confederacy. In response to a confederacy, we have this moment here of liberation, abolition, and revival of the values that make this country actually great. We have every freedom that we have today because somebody in each generation refused to accept the world as it was”
