As a #Michigander, a state where #Trump attempted #genocide, i often dream of #ArrestTrump. It would be a #NoKnockWarrant just before dawn. But once they got him, livestreamed, there would be like a lolapalooza just outside. @kathygriffin would be the host. ( ongoing thread)

impoverished people who start businesses sometimes get funding through philanthropy as if an investment in a worthy business owner is charity, but really that regular investors just can't... 🤢 ridiculous

@drseanmullen My daughter is in her last semester at University and is the only one who has consistently worn an N95 since the beginning. She's the only one she knows that hasn't gotten covid. I'm counting the days until she no longer has to sit in those lecture halls. That said, masks work.

Dr. Dennard, OB/GYN forced to flee Texas to receive reproductive care as a result of Trump ending Roe v. Wade: This is not a drill. It's really happening. The cruelty in my state towards women, the lack of mercy for us. People are suffering. I'm seeing it every day

THREAD: Pennsylvania law encourages municipalities to sell their water and sewage systems to private corporations, then allows those corporations to jack up utility bills to the benefit of investors.

Today, PA state senators heard about what this law is doing to communities.

I wish every woman in this country with a backbone could run against trump. An army to shout him down and shut him up.

Many white people hate black history because it tells on their families and what they did, what they should be ashamed of and where their generational wealth comes from. The truth into the light. Listen to Ruth Brown speak some truth. https://t.co/qh59fTbL8h

Watching the Lucy Show, I see that kids back then just told their parents where they were going for the day, walked there themselves with no worries. It was so different than kids driven everywhere and hiding under desks for safety. We🇺🇸 have so much to be ashamed of and to fix.

[Jean Vortkamp @DetroitJean]

@KeithOlbermann or long before he even ran. that he is still rattling around this country a free man is a shame on us 🇺🇸all.

@lourdesgnavarro @WendySiegelman been dead forever in Detroit. #AmericanApartheid

Taking shots at any candidates health or age is never acceptable, especially when there are 1 million other things to talk about. A candidate could be a genocidaire using a disease, an alleged rapist, or many other things. Focus.

Far-right group, Moms for Liberty, held a conference in New York City. They were met with chants of “worst moms ever!” https://t.co/qkOv24dx9q

that trump is still rattling around the public eye in any fashion is a badge of shame for all of 🇺🇸us.

If you were an activist under Gov. Lead Snyder/Kevyn Orr/Duggan, know that your trauma was well earned.

5/ @greg_travis and I make this point explicit in a recent blog post 👀👇.

Our immune system is not a muscle, it's a gas tank. Repeated infections draw it down. Those who advocate for increased disease spread are advocating for shorter and sicker lives:
