My 94 yo grandmother, a Holocaust survivor, is trapped in her Kyiv apartment with my father. She can't really walk, and he can't drive due to a disability. If anyone knows of any resources that can help with evacuation, please let me know.

On Sunday, March 7, 1965, time stopped and blood spilled as brave and righteous Americans sought to cross a bridge named after a Klansman in Selma, Alabama to reach the other side of justice.

Ukraine is undergoing a horrifying assault. Ted Cruz sits on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee but instead, he's focused on traveling to Mar-A-Lago to kiss the ring & talking about "Peppermint Patty" at CPAC.

Co-workers donated vacation days — some gave more, some less, but all gave something. That allowed him to remain on the books of his employer and collect a salary until he reached the retirement age of 67. https://t.co/KHUTm7IK2e

I want to watch this over and over again. Such unhinged delight at seeing the impossible happen.

There was a time when Susan Collins & Lisa Murkowski would’ve voted for voting rights. They along with John McCain saved Obamacare.

But something’s shifted. Too much money and/or fear being leveraged. It’s the same reason the Dems can’t get to Manchin or Sinema.

It’s scary.

[Jon Cooper 🇺🇸 @joncoopertweets]

This is your daily reminder that just two “moderate” GOP Senators — Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins — could provide the votes needed to pass BOTH the Freedom to Vote Act and Build Back Better.

Just two.

From my monologue on the @MehdiHasanShow tonight, on Lauren Boebert's vicious attack on Ilhan Omar:

i actually agree with this entirely: “This is not about one hateful statement or one politician; it is about a party that has mainstreamed bigotry and hatred.” https://t.co/dOWSITOAsV
