From the wars against disorder
From the sirens night and day
From the fires of the homeless
From the ashes of the gay
Democracy is coming to the USA

As I watch the January 6th committee hearing, this picture keeps popping into my head every time the Proud Boys are mentioned.

Porter: Ms. Swearer, I respect that we have different opinions… but we cannot have different facts. You falsely testified under oath…

PSA for DC residents — you can use your lunch break today to get your booster shot at the National Zoo — any brand, no appointment needed, no line, lovely staff!

Yay science! (And so thankful my brain doc cleared me for this!)

We’ve added nearly six million jobs this year.

That’s the most jobs of any president’s first year in history.

Call me old fashioned, but I have a certain nostalgia for political parties that believe in a peaceful transfer of power (and not insurrections).

Just quietly pointing out that nobody ever asked “how will we pay for” the $768,000,000,000 defense budget.

@TinaMorphis When the weather was warm, we opted for restaurants with outdoor eating areas. Now the family and our friends are vaxxed with booster shots too. So we wear masks into the restaurants, then take them off to eat. I have to admit, we don't go out as much. I am still a bit nervous.

@RepSwalwell @TobeyMaguire According to that impecable source, Reddit:
"Way back in his first couple issues [the comic's author] specified Spider-Man's suit's 'feet' are boots, but they're just really thin. Thin enough that he can wear them under his regular shoes."

because twitter is context bankrupt and confrontation rich, engaging in hypotheticals or analogies to help illustrate a point is almost always more harmful than helpful because some people will think you mean exact 1-to-1 comparisons or that you’re signaling a different view

publicly sharing thoughts and ideas through text is a challenge for everyone, even those with experience. internet culture pressures people to engage others in this unnatural way, often without adequate tools or education. this leads to a downward spiral of communication habits

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Los Angeles approves one of nation's strictest vaccine orders, requiring proof of shots to enter most indoor businesses.

Trump directly asked the Justice Department nine times to undermine the 2020 election results, and his chief of staff Mark Meadows violated government policy by pressuring the Justice Department to investigate Trump’s bogus claims of election fraud.

It’s clear why Mark Meadows & Trump co-conspirators don’t want to testify under oath. “Subverting Justice': Senate panel details Trump pressure campaign at DOJ to overturn election” https://t.co/hRLEqM3SBu

No child should have to drink water poisoned by lead. The American Jobs Plan will replace 100 percent of lead service lines in our country—creating good-paying union jobs along the way.

What governors like Abbott and DumbSantis don’t seem to realize is that COVID is like Jason Voorhees: it keeps coming back.
