My first resolution in Congress will be to call for the expulsion of the Republican members of Congress who incited this domestic terror attack on the Capitol.
Every politician who was responsible for inciting violence and terrorism in DC today should resign or be forced out and charged with high crimes and treason. Enough is enough. You want mob rule, you can move someplace where they do that. We didn't come to America for this.
ENTIRE GOP MUST PAY. GOP leadership MUST RESIGN. GOP supporters of this effort must resign.
ENTIRE CABINET must resign.
MUST BE BARRED fropublic office.
If Democrats, or anyone remotely left of political spectrum... if POC did this they’d shoot ppl inside on sight.
At least 6,300 coronavirus cases are tied to about 270 U.S. colleges over the course of the pandemic. And the new academic year has not even begun at most schools. https://t.co/nLvUV7k0QM

Federal agents sprayed mace into the faces of legal observers.
They shot and tear-gassed journalists doing their jobs.
They used sharpshooters to maim people.
They abducted protesters off the street.
Bill Barr and the rest of the Trump administration must be held accountable.
I really get tired of the "is this legal" question. We live in a country that relies on a ton of legal fiction to maintain law and order (and w*ite supremacy) so does it matter if something is legal or not if it is not right?
BREAKING: A federal court just issued a restraining order on the federal agents in Portland, Oregon.
We said we would deploy the full firepower of the ACLU in this fight to save our democracy — and we meant it.

My mom is a housekeeper for 4 different people in Manhattan, naturally they all cancelled her indefinitely, without pay. I am certain that none of them lost their income but her income just went to zero. If you hire a housekeeper, please pay them, it’s the decent thing to do!
Humans are not “the virus.”
Indigenous people have shown that it is possible to live in balance with nature.
Colonialism and extraction for profit, those are the virus.
A person sleeping on a bench just steps from several hundred vacant @MIT dorm rooms in #CambMA this evening. Our colleges and universities should immediately offer to make space available for people experiencing homelessness — and @MassGovernor should order them to do so!
Another life was tragically lost to immigration detention. @RAICES is reporting that a 27-year-old father died by suicide while in ICE custody at the Karnes County Residential Center in TX.
Immigration detention is a deadly. ICE must release ALL people immediately. #FreeThemAll
You're damned right we're using coronavirus to promote an agenda.
The agenda of having fewer people die from coronavirus (and, while we're at it, other medical ailments).
