The most corrupt president in American history is taking money out of your pocket.

[Rep. Jim McGovern @RepMcGovern]

🚨BREAKING: Republicans just voted AGAINST my amendment to stop Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund from bailing out the convicted felons who assaulted cops on January 6th.

You read that right. They blocked us from even debating the issue on the House floor.

Beyond shameful.

Economic inequality in wealthy countries is linked to worse health and poorer academic outcomes for children, a new @UNICEF report warns.

Investing in children’s health, nutrition and education is essential to give every child a fair chance.

(1/2) Virginia voters made their voices heard, and they deserve a process that respects the will of the people. At a moment when trust in our democratic institutions is already being tested, unprecedented intervention at this scale raises serious concerns about transparency,

[Lt. Governor Ghazala Hashmi @ltgovhashmi]

The Virginia Supreme Court's decision to block a redistricting referendum that Virginians voted for is part of a broader national assault on our democratic institutions — and it should concern everyone who believes in free and fair elections.

@Rep_Walkinshaw We are so sorry for your loss! Our sincere condolences.

[Mary L Trump @MaryLTrump]

The silence of Republicans as their president threatens to commit genocide is deafening.

They're all complicit.

[Ro Khanna @RoKhanna]

We need to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Trump.

Threatening war crimes is a blatant violation of our constitution and the Geneva Conventions.

War is not the answer.

We need peace.

Now.

[United Nations Geneva @UNGeneva]

Children belong in school, not in war.

Yet, tens of thousands of boys and girls are being used as soldiers by armed forces and groups in conflict zones worldwide.

@UN works to help prevent the recruitment of children and support those released.

Words can be weapons.
The Holocaust didn’t start with gas chambers. It started with hate speech.

Say #NoToHate and make your social feeds a not hate zone.
