I'll tell you this: None of us like Mitch McConnell because of the horrible things he's said and done as Senator.
But he had a medical incident today, and I saw a lot of well-wishers on our side. As it should be.
But when Senator John Fetterman had a medical episode, there were legions of Republicans who made fun and mocked him.
We are NOT the same.
Just saw OPPENHEIMER, an in-depth character exploration of the people who built the atomic bomb, a weapon of mass destruction that killed a quarter million Japanese civilians. Film is 3 hours long and features zero Japanese people.
One thing that I would not do, personally, is put a picture of a 19 year old girl crying as she gets dragged off to jail because she self-managed an abortion, in the fucking newspaper
@KenyaAirways technical fault on a plane that somehow allows two subsequent flights to depart but no information for hundreds of stranded passengers? For shame.
@KenyaAirways explain how our flights are being delayed and others are going instead. Explain why your staff in Mombasa is being completely incoherent about explaining what is happening
“We have to invest in girls’ nascent ideas, funders cannot require that they have “proof”. True investment is when you are an angel, when you come in before the proof is there.” - @staceyabrams’s call to funders at #GirlsDeliver#WD2023@YouthDeliver
"Girls don’t live single-issue lives. They don’t only face violence. They don't only face child marriage. They don’t only face climate crisis." @vanessa_vash

I want to be very clear that abortion bans, the rise of pro-natalism rhetoric, the dismantling of affirmative action, and voter suppression are very much so related. The common denominator is the great replacement theory, and the white supremacist fear of losing political control
“It is time for everybody in our legislature including the ones who would like to walk around with an ar15 lapel pin, it is time for every one of them to face the voters and if they're not going to do something, then voters are going to have to vote them out”
"Every precedent is on the chopping block" SCOTUS have already hinted that gay marriage, interracial marriage, contraception are their sights.
What can we do? #VoteBlueEveryElection & get our family and friends to do the same.
Time to expand the court!

I'm tired of dishonest arguments.
Nobody took out student loans expecting the federal government to bail them out.
People took out student loans because education has been priced out of reach.
People took out student loans believing they would be able to pay them back.
The GOP liked to call Dems victim shoppers. But a woman who doesn’t make wedding sites, has never been asked to make a gay wedding site, suing SCOTUS so she wouldn’t have to make a gay wedding site if she ever decided to make wedding sites, is a new level of victim shopping.
