Trump: “I believe in exceptions”

Tennessee has none. Women are fleeing for their lives.

That’s on him.

I can't get enough of her fearless eye contact while he pretends he's on a Zoom call in a room by himself. #Debate2024

Thanks The Band CAMINO for spending 1,713 minutes with me in 2022. I couldn’t stop listening to What I Want. #SpotifyWrapped https://t.co/RJ6PddCKOX @thebandcamino

SO to the white man in Panera who realized I was writing a sermon and told me that women can’t preach and I'm perverting scripture.

Our service is at 11:00 AM tomorrow, and we're talking about Hannah---a woman who calls out injustice at the hands of evil men in power.

“Enhancing security measures and adding additional safety plans” means inflicting even more trauma on educators and students. Also, the last thing teachers need is another training. Stopping putting it on us. It’s the guns governor. Please do something about the GUNS. #notsafe

[Gov. Bill Lee @GovBillLee]

Earlier today, I signed Executive Order 97 to enhance school safety and engage with parents, schools & law enforcement across Tennessee. Read more here.

More police in schools is not the answer. It harms students as shown in this 2021 article. Children and educators should not be locked in patrolled institutions while assault weapons are allowed on the street by politicians who refuse to act. https://t.co/vKWQWbdSeh

Reminder that mental health exists around the world. Mass shootings do not. May this be the time that things finally change.

My daughter’s beautiful teacher was the teacher who was killed in Uvalde, TX. Eva (Ms Mireles) taught Gabby in elementary school. She was a beautiful person & dedicated teacher. She believed in Gabby & went above & beyond to teach her as you can see below. There are no words.

If we’re going through something in life, we know that someone else out there is going through that same thing. We want these songs to meet y’all where you are and hopefully bring a little healing.

For the love of not burning every teacher out for good I hope we are never “asked” to teach a hybrid model again. #toomuch #onlyhuman

We’ve lived in this state for over half of our lives. @JeremyFaison4TN honored Ben Shapiro who doesn’t even live here. Jeremy, let’s have lunch one day. On us. Would really like to know more about you as a person.

BREAKING: The Senate passes the COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act to combat hate crimes against Asian Americans by a vote of 94-1.

The lone "no" vote was Josh Hawley.

We are a settler colonial state.
And a settler colonial state knows exactly who it wants to succeed and who it doesn't.
A settler colonial state knows how to execute people and how to make it seem like justice is on the horizon.

So, we keep telling the truth.

In our fight for justice, we must all remember that teaching is a tool of activism.

[Preston Smith @prestondsmith]

The verdict today was an important step, but so much injustice still remains. I am grateful for our @RocketshipEd community & our daily work to create a more inclusive, equitable world. Thoughts & prayers for George Floyd's family. Our work continues... #BlackLivesMatter
