BREAKING: ‘Will I Am’ just dropped a new single called “Yes She Can”.

Hint: “She” is Kamala Harris.

Everyone in America needs to hear it:

[Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1]

This passage from Michelle Obama:

"I hope you'll forgive me if I'm a little frustrated that some of us are choosing to ignore Donald Trump's gross incompetence while asking Kamala to dazzle us at every turn. I hope that you'll forgive me if I'm a little angry that we are indifferent to his erratic behavior. His obvious mental decline. His history as a convicted felon. A known slumlord. A predator found liable for sexual abuse. All of this while we pick apart Kamala's answers from interviews that he doesn't even have the courage to do, y'all."

Hey @FedExHelp @FedEx what do I have to do to get your driver to leave packages at the front door? When I asked him in person last week he said he wouldn’t remember so I left a very clear note.

Vote Blue!

[Nancy Pelosi @TeamPelosi]

When you vote and we win the election, Democrats will help families afford and access child care so more moms can thrive on the job and at home.

Every House Democrat supports expanding child care, pre-K and the child tax credit — we CAN get this done. #BelieveAndVoteDem

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Memo to the media: Please don't say inflation is at a 40-year high without also mentioning that corporate profits are at a 70-year high. Give the people the full picture.

[Nancy Pelosi @TeamPelosi]

House Democrats are committed to bringing families' care costs down by investing in:

🔹Child Care
🔹Pre-K
🔹Paid Leave
🔹Home Care
🔹Child Tax Credit

VOTE and VOLUNTEER to hold our Democratic House to lower YOUR cost of living and cut YOUR household bills. #DemsPutFamiliesFirst

A great and important read.

On #Kanye #antisemitism: By the time speech has led to actions that can't be ascribed to a “lone wolf” or the “mentally ill,” it's ripened into a movement. Movements are harder to stop & the cost of resistance becomes so high that good people don't act.

It's amazing how many white people on this app are excited to say the n-word.

I bet the @nytimes won't do a story on that before the midterms. Just more "we asked 14 white people in a diner about the election and 10 of them said they hate... gas prices."

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

Yesterday, a man tried to assassinate the Speaker of the House, seriously injuring her husband.

The Republican Party & the former president have yet to demand an end to political violence in this country as we head towards Election Day.

[HelenShik @HelenShik]

Bet no one watching Fox News will ever know about this.

[Brian Tyler Cohen @briantylercohen]

The US netted more jobs this month alone than the entirety of Donald Trump’s presidency.

[HelenShik @HelenShik]

@WFKARS Have you noticed recently that the word of the day has double letters?

[HelenShik @HelenShik]

@RandyRainbow See you in Providence @RandyRainbow can’t wait!

[HelenShik @HelenShik]

Made my flight even after 4 @Uber drivers canceled rather than pick me up. Thanks to a taxi driver who came in under a minute to pick me up.

[Fred Guttenberg @fred_guttenberg]

Message to my Democratic friends. After today, stop complaining about Manchin & start talking about @valdemings, @TimRyan, @JohnFetterman, @CheriBeasleyNC, @TheOtherMandela & holding every Democratic seat such as @ReverendWarnock & @CaptMarkKelly. We fix this with our vote!!!

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

Tomorrow, after years of advocacy by Americans working to improve our mental health system, 988 will become our new nationwide number for suicide prevention, mental health and substance use crises. Call or text 988 for a trained counselor who can provide support. #988Lifeline

If it takes 50 votes to confirm a Supreme Court justice, it should only take 50 votes to overrule them when they act like highly-partisan politicians.

[Annette Taddeo @Annette_Taddeo]

I’m just curious why it’s age appropriate for kids k-5 to learn about hiding under desks and not that sometimes people have two dads.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

It is a little hard for me to take the hand-wringing about non-violent protests outside the homes of Supreme Court Justices seriously when the Supreme Court itself ruled protests outside the homes of *doctors who provide abortions* is protected by the 1st amendment.

[Andrea Junker @Strandjunker]

“Abortion” isn’t in the constitution, but neither is “9 justices on the Supreme Court” and “filibuster”.
