Our Daily Broad

Give us this day Our Daily Broad -- and A STEAMIN' CUP OF (PRESIDENT) JOE.

[Our Daily Broad @OurDailyBroad]

As always, @AOC has a Twitter game that is on POINT.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Tell me you’ve never read the Bible without telling me you’ve never read the Bible

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

Student loan debt is holding back tens of millions of people across this country who can’t buy homes, buy cars, or start small businesses. President Biden needs to #CancelStudentDebt not only for those people individually but also for our whole economy.

[Our Daily Broad @OurDailyBroad]

@audraathome Good luck!

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Serious question: How is increasing the minimum wage to $15/hour socialism, but corporations keeping wages low by forcing workers onto public assistance the free market?

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

A lot of young people would open up new small businesses in empty storefronts if they weren’t weighed down by tens of thousands of dollars in student debt. We need President Biden to #CancelStudentDebt to release more entrepreneurship and boost our whole economy.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Why did we all bust our as*es getting Democrats elected to the presidency and in control of both houses of Congress if they can't do a simple thing like protect voting rights?

[UnitedStateofWomen @USOWomen]

Watch every word.

Paxton Smith, valedictorian of Lake Highlands High School’s Class of 2021, switched out her approved valedictory commencement speech to instead talk about abortion rights in Texas.

#WeCannotStaySilent!

[Our Daily Broad @OurDailyBroad]

Now that #Pride2021 is here, remember that rather than buying a bunch of cashgrabby Pridewashing stuff from big corps who don't support us year-round, you could send a donation to a worthy LGBT+ org like @TrevorProject or @HRC.

[George Takei @GeorgeTakei]

It's odd to me, as a survivor of American internment camps, how people somehow believe this country is immune from the allure and the danger of fascism.

[Our Daily Broad @OurDailyBroad]

@turkeyswissblt @IAmLegendIkon @Broad1Big @JoyAnnReid I cannot imagine drawing that and thinking I had an actual firearm.

[Our Daily Broad @OurDailyBroad]

@turkeyswissblt @IAmLegendIkon @Broad1Big @JoyAnnReid One would think they would instead choose to use tasers that were in no way similar to a service weapon so that the confusion would never happen.

[Our Daily Broad @OurDailyBroad]

@turkeyswissblt @IAmLegendIkon @Broad1Big @JoyAnnReid I have never seen or handled a taser that felt like the service weapon shown in the video. The weight is different, a taser requires time to discharge, etc. In any case, though -- this is someone who should not have a firearm. I say this as a progressive who also owns a firearm.

[Our Daily Broad @OurDailyBroad]

@corozon4u_cora @mama_c2 Sounds about White.

White people like us do not even begin to understand the terror of a Black person getting pulled over by a cop. I've never had to fear more than a ticket when I've been pulled over. If I were Black, my life would be in danger every time.

[Our Daily Broad @OurDailyBroad]

@GovRonDeSantis is an evil, stupid tool. He makes Rick Scott look good by comparison.

[Sean Shaw @SShawFL]

If your Attorney General goes after cruise companies but not environmental ravagers what state do you live in? Here’s a hint - 🌞

[Our Daily Broad @OurDailyBroad]

Every district should have a rep like @RepCori Bush.

[Congresswoman Cori Bush (Archived) @RepCori]

We’re officially 100 days into our term!

To celebrate, we tried to recap what we’ve been up to in 100(ish!) seconds.

Remember this, St. Louis: Your Congresswoman loves you.

[Our Daily Broad @OurDailyBroad]

How many Black Americans have to die before we DO THIS?

#BlackLivesMatter
#SayTheirNames

[Rep. Pramila Jayapal @RepJayapal]

Eliminate the filibuster and pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.

This can’t wait any longer.

[Our Daily Broad @OurDailyBroad]

@turkeyswissblt @IAmLegendIkon @Broad1Big @JoyAnnReid Only someone who has never handled either could find it even remotely plausible that you could mistake a taser for a service weapon. Unless she is severely mentally impaired (and should thus NOT HAVE A FIREARM), there is zero chance that this is an honest mistake.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

BREAKING: Officer Kim Potter has resigned from her job after killing Daunte Wright.

NOW PROSECUTE HER.

[Our Daily Broad @OurDailyBroad]

Can we just stop treating 'routine' traffic stops like they are anything but an excuse to fill ticket quotas at best and a chance for bullies with badges to endanger the lives of Black motorists?

[Cori Bush @CoriBush]

Police killed 121 people in traffic stops in 2020.

Black people are pulled over at disproportionate rates.

Sandra Bland. Philando Castile. Daunte Wright. All their deaths began with a traffic stop. Remove police from traffic enforcement. We can't keep adding names to this list.

[Our Daily Broad @OurDailyBroad]

@dangelno Much respect to you for your work ethic, and your moral decision to admit that you made an incorrect judgment and correct the issue. More people need to learn from your example that admitting to a mistake is an opportunity to grow, not a punishment. 👍
