Donald Trump votes by mail. But this week, he signed an Executive Order so you can’t.
Why? Because he is scared of your power, and he is scared of losing the midterms.

David Ellison’s CBS just cut its entire Race and Culture unit, and other massive layoffs. But it’s seems that only Black and Brown people were fired.
Another move in media’s ongoing effort to silence Black and brown voices by pushing us out of platforms that allow us to tell OUR stories. So this really wasn’t about DEI. It was more about being able to pick and choose who you want to hire based off their color.
Meanwhile, his father Larry Ellison is acquiring TikTok and its algorithm.
So the question is, are we going to keep complaining about being pushed out, or are we going to build our own?

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions – rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking concrete steps to make sure all students at Harvard can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope other institutions follow suit.
Stevie Wonder is requesting a meeting with President Biden. He is concerned after witnessing the rollback of critical laws and freedoms long fought for to level the playing field for Black Americans, including the gutting of the Voting Rights Act and affirmative action.
For a moment put aside Trump's abrasive personality, his racist rhetoric, and his skeevy business behavior. As president he was inept, incompetent, and lazy. Why Republicans continue to support him is beyond me.
@CarlHeastie Please support families by passing the protect in person visiting bill A4250A this session. Jails across the country are replacing visits with costly video conferencing and families are counting on you to #ProtectVisits in New York. #LoveLivesInPerson
Rickia Young, a Black mother, was attacked by a horde of police officers while driving with her family in Philadelphia in October. "The police have not offered an explanation," says Kevin Mincey, an attorney representing Young, who he says did "nothing wrong."
President Trump still has no plan to address COVID-19.
He quit on you, on your family, on America. He just wants us to grow numb to the horrors of the death toll and the pain.
We cannot afford another four years of his failed leadership.
What we do in these next four days will not just decide the next four years, but the future of this country. Let’s choose hope over fear. I’m counting on you.
The Civil Rights Movement was not non-violent. Black protesters used strategies of non-violent direct action. And at every point they were met with brutal white supremacist, state violence and death. That -ish was not peaceful! It was painful, bloody, horrific.
@JohnElliottTV In honor of Black history month please correct your statement about George Washington’s dentures. It was discussed on CBS this morning and his dentures were made from slaves teeth.
To all those scared for our future: we can get through this better than we started.
We have the power to triumph over hatred, division, and bigotry.
But decency cannot be taken for granted. It is something we must create, advance, and actively work to build each and every day.
