Just in case anyone doubts what occurred on 1/6.

Please share far and wide.

“Nobody wants to work anymore.”

Nobody ever wanted to work at all. We wanted to be productive, be creative, be part of a community, be supported, be validated, and have the time and space to truly rest. No one actually wants to trade in hours of their life to “earn” necessities.

Truly incredible to hear Mitch McConnell accuse Democrats of rigging the rules with HR1 when he stole 2 Supreme Court seats for Trump, blocked 110 Obama judicial nominees & prevented a vote on restoring Voting Rights Act for 7 years

[Christine Pelosi @sfpelosi]

Do not ever forget that Republicans canceled the only woman in @HouseGOP leadership, Liz Cheney, for speaking her truth - but kept silent about these 2 of their men accused of sexual predation and lies by women and girls.

[Former Congresswoman Val Demings @RepValDemings]

The most important obligation of our leaders is to keep us safe. By spreading a lie, the ex-president incited a violent attack. Anyone who continues to spread that lie is endorsing further violence. It’s unacceptable.

Remember: If you received either the Pfizer or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, you need two doses to receive the full scope of protection. Don’t skip your second shot.

Welcome to Florida! ☀️

Still illegal to run over your dog but running over protestors with your car is now totally fine

Thanks, DeathSantis!

Do better @TwitterSupport.

Holocaust denial is a mendacious conspiracy theory. It is a dangerous & hideous carrier of antisemitism & hatred. Deniers hate. They harass & insult the memory of the victims.

Broadband is infrastructure.

[Charles Booker @Booker4KY]

Damn right, Mr. President. Internet is a vital utility, and in many areas across my home state, internet coverage is garbage.

Let’s change that, so everyone, from the hood to the holler, has the resources they need.

[Dan Price @DanPriceSeattle]

If the minimum wage had kept up with CEO pay since 1978, it would be $33.58 an hour now.

Yet somehow we don't hear how 1,167% growth in CEO pay has led to reduced jobs or higher prices.

[Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar]

Now Republicans are making the argument that letting people vote would cause “chaos?” No. Chaos is a five hour wait to vote. It is the purging of voter rolls and modern day poll taxes. That angry mob on January 6th? That was chaos. The right to vote is not.

[Pearls Aside @JusticeRulesOK]

Good! About damn time.
