Getting ready to delete my account. Twitter was a beautiful community for writers. Now it’s not. You can find me on Threads and Instagram. Before I go, a few words for @elonmusk : FUCK YOU & THE DICTATOR YOU RODE IN ON.
Our nation’s democratic system functioned last night and we have a new President-elect. All Americans are bound, whether we like the outcome or not, to accept the results of our elections. We now have a special responsibility, as citizens of the greatest nation on earth, to do everything we can to support and defend our Constitution, preserve the rule of law, and ensure that our institutions hold over these coming four years. Citizens across this country, our courts, members of the press and those serving in our federal, state and local governments must now be the guardrails of democracy.
If you plan on voting for Jill Stein or Trump because of the war in the Middle East, please watch and reconsider. It’s just 6 minutes and it’s worth the watch.

BREAKING: 741 former high-ranking national security officials have signed a letter officially endorsing @KamalaHarris for President.

—10 former cabinet secretaries
—10 service secretaries and even
—Multiple GOP leaders who served under Trump
When right-wing scum tried to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer, Republicans made excuses.
When a lunatic beat Paul Pelosi with a hammer, they made jokes.
And when Trump sent a mob to attack the Capitol, they made up lies.
Don’t lecture us about condemning violence.
