BLACK LIVES MATTER
Antifa Soup Can in parallel life
Dogs are fundamental to human life
On the corner, still waiting for the taco truck to show up

This makes me ridiculously happy. Tears in my eyes happy

Poverty in US should be zero and this is an amazing start

[Jeff Stein @jstein_sun]

New analysis of Biden stimulus impact out today -->

-- Poverty falls by 42% for black people

Overall, bill lowers poverty rate from 13.7 percent to 8.7 percent - similar to Columbia analysis

Refresher on what a “pro-life” agenda ACTUALLY looks like:

- gun safety laws
- taking action on climate change
- protecting LGBT rights
- healthcare for all
- expanding pre-natal care
- expanding mental healthcare
- expanding childcare
- universal preschool
- free school meals

People really should read the joint dissent in Dobbs -- it's pretty comprehensive and you'll learn a lot about abortion policy! https://t.co/JuFf6JDhwm

[Emily Calandrelli @TheSpaceGal]

If you’re like “I don’t know anyone who’s had an abortion” what you’re actually saying is:
“No one I know trusts me enough to tell me about their abortion”

I thought bans never work?

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

From where I sit, I see three camps:
A: Welp, there's nothing you can do, state's rights forever.
B: Welp, there's nothing we can do, state's rights you know. Vote harder.
C: ACTUALLY THERE'S A LOT WE CAN DO RIGHT NOW BECAUSE WE CONTROL THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

We can do these things RIGHT NOW, before the midterms.
Then:
* Win in November
* Eliminate the filibuster
* Pass federal abortion protections
* Expand the Supreme Court so they don't overturn the new legislation.

THESE ARE THE SOLUTIONS. The rest is performance art.

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

* Make abortions available on federal property leased to providers who pay for it out their own pockets and charity.
* Guarantee the right to travel, AND TRAVEL VOUCHERS for people in need of a "vacation"
* Make abortion meds available through the federal post and on fed land

[Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse]

The captured Court will likely continue its far-right rampage next week with WV v. EPA. This case could gut EPA’s ability to regulate greenhouse gas emissions. And it could hamstring modern government’s ability to ensure safe food, meds, consumer products, & working conditions.

[Jennifer Rourke @JenRourke29]

I'm a reproductive rights organizer & State Senate candidate. Last night, after speaking at our Roe rally, my Republican opponent – a police officer – violently attacked me.

This is what it is to be a Black woman running for office. I won't give up.

[Jenn @JenneIsSoReal]

@JDVance1 Women should be supported in both circumstances. I think all Republican politicians should have to declare under oath how many abortions they've paid for or driven their significant other to

[Willy Blackmore @willyblackmore]

You absolutely should not have to tell your boss at Dick’s Sporting Goods that you need an abortion

[Adam Serwer 🍝 @AdamSerwer]

A majority of the justices in Roe were appointed by Republicans and the issue of abortion was not similarly polarized by party or ideology at the time, this is myth, like the time you made up Jeff Sessions desegregating schools, something he had to admit was untrue under oath

[they/them causing jayhem @jaythenerdkid]

this isn't sharia, by the way. islam doesn't forbid abortion. islam doesn't even forbid contraception. the west needs to reckon with its own demons. this isn't just like some bad thing from some imagined foreign place. this is your own bad thing you're dealing with, here.

[Jenn @JenneIsSoReal]

Also I've always suspected that "the moral arch of history bends towards justice" is a pantload too.

Ps And the verdict on history all depends on who is allowed to be a scribe

Forced pregnancy is a crime against humanity.
