This @StanfordSPARQ research is extraordinary: "asset allocators rated stronger & weaker teams differently in
terms of competence when their managing partner was White, but not Black. The same applied w/r/t
evaluations of social fit for stronger & weaker White-male–led teams"

On this day in 1863, Harriet Tubman's forces freed more than 700 slaves in a raid of South Carolina plantations. https://t.co/Xu37Y9lis5

Exclusive: A convicted Jan. 6 rioter who later said that he regretted his participation in the U.S. Capitol attack has been hired by the Trump administration to work inside a Pentagon office that manages highly classified military operations. https://t.co/3OtllgCSWP

The heart of our constitutional crisis in one exchange between me and Sec. Mullin. When asked a simple question - if he will obey court orders - he says he will not because some court orders are "politicized".

That's not how democracy works. And that's why we are in a crisis.

Trump defense attorney Todd Blanche called out 2x. A fed’l judge investigates his lifetime pass for Trump & kids from any kind of claim! Below, another fed’l judge says Blanche smeared @SPLCenter, then had to admit his false claim. This case should be dismissed!

Would be cool if conservatives even pretended to care about Trump’s blistering, unprecedented corruption.

The Strait was open and violence-free before you and Trump started the stupid war of choice that you can’t seem to win. You ran crying to NATO, now you run crying to the UN. What a bunch of whiny losers you are.

🚨 A STUNNING CLAIM.

According to a legal analyst, DOJ never filed a single motion opposing Trump's lawsuit before negotiating a settlement.

Not one filing contesting the case.

Not one motion asking the court to reject the claims.

In a normal lawsuit involving the federal government, government lawyers typically defend the government's position in court.

Here, critics argue that never happened.

Instead, they say DOJ moved directly into negotiations.

Stephen Miller blatantly violated the Hatch Act in a recent Fox News appearance where he made partisan, bigoted comments against Senate candidate James Talarico.

So we filed a complaint. https://t.co/42VzFMSKFF

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

Let me get this straight.

Howard Lutnick, Trump’s Commerce Secretary, got caught lying about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Democrats grilled him about it and finally got him to agree to testify before the House Oversight Committee.

Four weeks later, Lutnick wrote a $5 million check to the super PAC that funds House Republicans, including members who sit on that committee. Then he showed up for a closed-door interview where, despite pushback from Democrats, no cameras or recordings were allowed.

This is the most corrupt administration in American history and it’s not even close.

Gas prices are $6 a gallon and going up because Trump is bored and doesn’t want to do the work to end the war.

That’s the actual truth.

ICE gets &1 trillion over the next decade to violate our rights. Trump has been trying to pay off his loyalists with a $1.8 billion slush fund but our communities ripped apart by a racist massacre is the history this administration wants to ignore. We won’t be silent. @civilrightsorg
