Sad news—American patriot Rep Elijah Cummings died earlier today at John Hopkins Hospital due to “complications from longstanding health challenges.” Rest In Peace. This speech from Cummings is how I’ll always remember him. An American hero.
We've been telling the story about Black women getting paid 61 cents to the dollar for more years than I can remember. And I can simply use this day to further shout to the top of my voice that it is time to end the discrepancy and discrimination. Black women deserve equal pay.
This man is an American hero. During the mass shooting in El Paso, he acted to save as many children as possible and used his legally owned weapon to help.
This man represents everything that’s great about this country.
In the summer of 2015, Trump announced his candidacy by calling a whole people criminals.
Today, El Paso, the safest city in the country, where 80% of the population are of Mexican heritage whom Trump disparaged 4 yrs ago, were victims of a massacre he inspired.
I’m old to remember when @IlhanMN said white men/supremacy are the biggest threat and other lawmakers basically called her a racist and asked her to apologize, even though FBI data supported everything she said.
We have a terrorism problem in America.
It is home grown. It is white. It is based on supremacy.
It is not from ISIS. It is not from Islam.
It is not from immigrants.
It is the most dangerous epidemic according to FBI.
And it isn't being shamed.

Ok, so now I’ll comment: It looks like this killer is a white nationalist/white supremacist. He hated immigrants & Hispanics. He drove 9 hrs to kill.
White supremacy is evil. White supremacy needs to be called out & shamed. This was an act of domestic terrorism, an act of evil.
If the El Paso killer were a radical Islamic terrorist, we Conservatives would not hesitate to condemn the evil ideology behind the act.
It looks like the killer is a white nationalist. We Conservatives must as vociferously condemn the evil ideology that is white supremacy.
@NBCNews Bill Clinton banned assault weapons in 1994; mass shootings dropped by 43%.
Bush and the GOP let the ban expire in 2004; they went up over 230%. #BanAssaultWeapons
This is Glen Oakley.
He was in the Foot Locker when the El Paso shooting happened. When he ran to leave, he saw kids in the mall without their parents, scared and alone.
So he picked up as many as he could and carried them to safety
KNOW HIS NAME!

Hearing tales of furloughed govt workers who can't make basic payments after missing one or two paychecks is a reminder of our fucked up economy! These are supposed to be middle class jobs, but if you can't survive skipping one paycheck, that's not middle class!
