@KarenAttiah @hrw @carlishawb What is "uncomfortable history"? The truth is the truth. I can scarce believe the idiocies I see on TV News and read about. One good example is on the news today--the questionable words of Mc Connel speaking ill of our President. Laughing at him actually. We can be better.

The shooter who murdered my beautiful butterfly Dylan carried ten 30-round magazines into Sandy Hook Elementary. In just four minutes, he shot 154 bullets, killing 20 children and six educators. Sign our petition demanding action to prevent school shootings now. -Nicole

I have a story on Allen Weisselberg coming out very soon.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

Reading the latest reporting about Trump and his minions from election day to inauguration day, I'll repeat two familiar statements:
Never Trump.
I was alarmed.
And given the failure of the Republican Party to come to grips with the Trump years, I'll add this:
I remain alarmed.

I’m thrilled to join @Kidango, families, teachers, and advocates across the state to thank @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom for making quality pre-K free for every child in California! https://t.co/hFAjEZYJGO

@SpeakerPelosi Who is supporting our President?

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

With so many folks getting together with family and friends, there’s a lot to celebrate this summer. Here’s a playlist of songs I’ve been listening to lately—it's a mix of old and new, household names and emerging artists, and a whole lot in between.

[Bev Owen @BevOwen1989]

@mmpadellan It is being worked on. I have faith. It's all on tv anyway--all of what Trump did to incite poor ignorant Americans to riot, who said he'd be with them, then slipped away to watch on tv at the White House like the coward he is.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

It is not radical to suggest that seniors in the richest country in the history of the planet should be able to afford to keep teeth in their mouths.

@TiffanyDCross @DrChrisMD I wear a mask because my immune system is compromised. I want to be vaccinated though. My friend is 80+ and she is fine having been vaccinated. I'm 78 and have been told to take Zink, and I should be fine. I just bought Zink.

[Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke]

Just testified against Texas voter suppression bill (HB3).

I’m truly grateful to everyone who came out & especially to those who are still testifying (at 4:15am!).

We’re fighting as hard as we can for voting rights in Texas.

I hope the President & Senate will do their part.

[Amy Siskind @Amy_Siskind]

I like many has assumed when Trump lost, the GOP would right itself, & love of country would prevail. Instead, we have learned he was but a symptom. Without mass appeal to voters, the GOP seeks to seize power-authoritarianism-by usurping democracy. That is what we are up against.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

If Jeff Bezos can make $8 billion in one day and pay a lower tax rate than a school teacher, don’t tell me we can’t afford Medicare for All.

[Bev Owen @BevOwen1989]

@BernieSanders It is cost-effective to remove our teeth. If our country is the richest in the world, why is our government so
mean-spirited toward us? We vote for our representatives, yet some do not represent us.

[Bev Owen @BevOwen1989]

@joncoopertweets His dad.

[Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1]

There is no legal or constitutional mechanism for Trump to be reinstated as president. None.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

Your faith is going to make you whole. Your faith is going to bring you out of debt. Your faith is going to break the addiction. Your faith is going to help you accomplish your dreams. Your faith is going to take you further than you’ve imagined.

[Steven Beschloss @StevenBeschloss]

Where are the hearings on 1/6? When are the inciters and funders put under oath and in the bright glare of the klieg lights? Who has time for August recess?

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Here on Earth, in the richest country on the planet, half our people live paycheck to paycheck, people are struggling to feed themselves, struggling to see a doctor — but hey, the richest guys in the world are off in outer space!

Yes. It's time to tax the billionaires.
