if an unelected body of 9 people can look at a centuries-old document and claim that the document gives landlords the right to evict people in the middle of a global pandemic we should get rid of both that unelected body and that centuries-old document
.@NC5PhilWilliams: "Were you wrong when you said 'Kids don’t get sick from COVID'?"
@GovBillLee: *TWISTS HIMSELF INTO A PRETZEL TO AVOID SAYING YES* 🥨 😷
Today is Election Day.
We've talked to voters, built coalitions, organized our communiites, and centered the needs of everyday Ohioans.
I’m asking you to stand with me today for a better future for our state and our nation.
My opponent has spent 30 years in Congress.
His father was the Governor.
His brother is the Mayor.
We're always told young people need to get involved, that we need diverse leadership—until we ask for a seat at the table.

🚨NEWS: Marking a decisive moment in the #OH11 race, Cuyahoga County’s entire Democratic State Senate Delegation of Minority Leader @KennyYuko, Minority Whip @SenSWilliams & Sen. @nickieantonio have now endorsed @ninaturner in her mission to become Ohio’s next congressperson.
Now on the Tennessee House floor, Rep. Justin Lafferty is yelling about how the three-fifths compromise was good. Republicans applaud. Members of the black caucus are huddling in groups.
I am on my way to Kentucky to give a major address at 2:30 p.m. ET about the future of our country and the choices we have to make. The vision of Sen. Mitch McConnell and the Republican Establishment versus that of the Progressive movement could not be clearer.
This is a truly outrageous miscarriage of justice. If you haven’t heard the full story, highly recommend spending 30 minutes to listen to the free podcast episode about this case https://t.co/vKP94m0Fpo
BREAKING: After terminating Zoom access to my trial, Judge Preska today refused to reserve seats for an international team of trial monitors that includes former Ambassador Stephen Rapp.
Stop hiding.
AZ Chamber of Commerce asked @KyrstenSinema her position on the PRO Act, and *wow* did she say the quiet part loud: "the way I make decisions on behalf of Arizona and for our constituents is by listening to the business leaders who will be impacted"
WATCH: “IS IT SAFE TO SAY YOU’VE NEVER BEEN A WOMAN?”
🔥@RepLamar & @VoteGloriaJ rip @TimRudd34 & the @TNGOP’s “OFFENSIVE” & “TERRIBLE” bill that forces women to bury/cremate an aborted fetus/medical tissue, even when they find themselves pregnant after being raped.

The "warrant" on #DaunteWright was over unpaid fines for 2 minor misdemeanors — one a marijuana case — totaling $346. He pled guilty, filed for deferred payment and they were sent to collections DURING A PANDEMIC. Then he was pulled over for car air fresheners and killed over it.
Black man pulled over for some bs. A police officer shot him because he was getting back in his car.
You’ll hear a lot of victim blaming from the Right wing in the coming days. Bottom line is: Getting into your car doesn’t require the use of deadly force https://t.co/QgeCTPOdSS
Odessa centering good-paying jobs & climate justice in her campaign. This is huge in a place like Nashville, where we’ve been facing major weather-related disasters in recent years.
And in the town where HCA is headquartered, the avg salary of a home health aide is $12/hr. 😡
For years @amazon has vehemently refuted reports of punishing working conditions in the company.
This past week it admitted that some stories - such as workers having to urinate in bottles - are true.
We spoke with @J_Bloodworth and @kenklippenstein who have reported on Amazon.
