Ive never believed something more ardently in my life, in sports. The first privilege is male privilege and the way that ties into legit economic abuse for you “they dont generate as much money” people is such a scary part of the NCAA playbook. Supremacy vibes

Diamond Miller is an incredible basketball player

Pass it on

Brittney Griner is in the process of being transferred to a Russian penal colony -- a move her family has dreaded since Griner's August conviction on drug charges -- but her lawyers don't know where she is or where she's headed, her Russian legal team said https://t.co/j9qj8Q8u57

washington d.c. sports fans,,, have you considered simply putting all of your energy into elena delle donne, ariel atkins, natasha cloud and the mystics instead 🤔

In most communities, DC included, recyclables *cannot* be placed in plastic bags.

Plastic bags are our most common contaminant - they jam equipment, causing operations to shut down multiple times/day so workers can cut them out (one of the biggest reasons workers get injured)!

We have had 2 DC residents murdered in USP Pollock in Louisiana over the last 2 weeks …. This is so alarming , I hope we can move to have all of our residents housed closer to home and ultimately we need statehood to have our own prison

DC Statehood is a democracy issue.
DC Statehood is a voting rights issue.
DC Statehood is a racial justice issue.
DC Statehood is a gun safety issue.
DC Statehood is a reproductive justice issue.

Overwhelmed by all the campaign mailers and ads you’re seeing? See who’s supporting candidates here: https://t.co/jmIqMt0qIx.
I'm proud to be the only candidate in this race not receiving support from fossil fuel companies, corporate PACs, or other shady groups.

[Ladies Who Like Baseball @LONTDC1]

We will be boycotting all July 4th baseball games this year as a form of protest against @MLB and all 30 teams that have had a week to say ANYTHING and yet, have chosen to remain silent. 🤐

A thread of full explanation is below (1/?) 🧵

If Republicans were really “pro-life”, they’d support universal health care, paid leave, free child care, & gun reform.

Make no mistake: all they care about is power & control.

[Moshik Temkin @moshik_temkin]

I will repeat this as long as I have to, when the Supreme Court said in 1937 that the Social Security Act was “unconstitutional”, FDR didn’t ask people to vote harder in the next election, he told the Court he’d add more justices until they backed off, which they did.

[Scott Goldstein @ScottGoldstein]

7. If it wasn't clear enough before- we need ranked choice voting. The at-large council race and the ward 3 race should be all the proof you need. Would have affected the mayor's race too. Voters aren't too dumb to rank candidates by preference. Come on.

[Carolyn Plank @DCCarolyn]

[Stewie @breannastewart]

It has been 119 days since our friend, Brittney Griner, has been wrongfully detained in Russia. It is time for her to come home. @WhiteHouse, we are paying attention and we are counting on you. #WeAreBG

[Eleanor #DCStatehood Holmes Norton @EleanorNorton]

The Jan 6th hearings remind us that the DC police department, which is paid for by DC residents, voluntarily saved the Capitol and democracy that day, even though Congress denies DC residents voting representation in Congress and full local self-government.

Little more than 30 minus to tip in Spokane. ICYMI: Haley Jones first had to look within. Now she’s the player Stanford can’t be without.
