.@Delta your treatment of the passengers on DL1737 is horrendous. We have been waiting in limbo for five hours without any update if/when our flight will depart. There are no flights to rebook, no customer service communication, nothing. We are stranded. This is unacceptable.

[ACLU of Texas @ACLUTx]

Texas has a long history of voter suppression — aimed at preventing Texans of color and disabled voters from having an equal say in our democracy.

Our voices matter. And our votes should too.

We’re in court to stop this latest form of discrimination.

New York's Democratic Party has overseen 2 of the party's biggest election disasters over past 2 years.

—They were inexplicably (I mean...) asleep at the wheel in 2021 when the voting rights referendum went down.
—If GOP wins House, their NY House wins will be what we point to.

If I get this error message one more time on @barbri Multistate Edge, I am going to lose it. This is ridiculous.

Earlier this week, NYPD arrested Jazz Ajilo, a beloved subway musician. New Yorkers were outraged.

In response, Mayor Adams said the subway is out of control and he was elected to fix it. It’s “not the place for disorder.”

So…here’s a thread of that…“disorder”.🧵

"Leave it up to the states" was also the pro-slavery argument in the 1800s.

SCOTUS read neither the room nor the Constitution correctly

@bballgorl Paula is obviously only in this barbri racket for the clout

Our kids cannot be replaced. But our Senators can.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

FYI this isn't stopping. There have been 18 mass shootings SINCE Uvalde.

You need to know this. Because it's not going to stop until we do something.

1/ Here's just a sampling of the slaughter in the last six days:

@barbri Seems like the login is down again.

First, we don't get the holiday off. Now, we're wasting a beautiful day struggling to even log in. 😩

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Why even be in Congress if you don’t believe in doing your job?

Just quit and let someone who actually gives a damn do it instead of acting like a useless piece of furniture when babies are shot with AR15s that we let teen boys impulse buy before they can legally have a beer.

[Amanda Gorman @TheAmandaGorman]

It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity—it’s inhumanity.

The amount Elon Musk just paid for Twitter ($44 billion) is nearly equal to Biden’s proposed climate budget ($44.9 billion), in case anyone's wondering how seriously we’re taking the climate crisis
