@JohnCornyn Hmmm - I wonder if you’ve actually thought about this. Do you suppose your base of rural white voters have passports? I grew up in West Texas - spoiler alert, they do not.

[Penny Linsenmayer @PennyLins]

@RandPaul Do you need a passport or a birth certificate to buy Sudafed?

We hope the good people of #SanFrancisco will forgive us for adapting a song about their city in 1967 to address the shocking and tragic events in #Minnesota in recent weeks. This is dedicated to Renée Good and Alex Pretti, and in solidarity. Our version is called "Minnesota" ❤️

Tom Hanks was instrumental in raising funds for DC’s WWII Memorial when Congress appropriated only 10 percent of the funds needed. He also raised funds for the National WWII Museum, narrated documentaries on WWII and co-produced Band of Brothers. Naturally, Trump hates this.

@tedcruz @grok Is the National Guard stationed in those high crime areas? Or … are they picking up garbage on the National Mall?

[Penny Linsenmayer @PennyLins]

@SenTedCruz I almost never agree with you on anything, but I do here. Thanks for standing strong on this issue of critical public safety concerns & accurately identifying the key issue.

[Phil Pothen 🇨🇦 he/him @pothen]

A history lesson for the US President and his spokesperson. The U.S. dealt with only two of the beaches on D-Day. Britain had two as well. Canada (despite being 1/11th your size - tackles one beach (Juno Beach) on its own.

@SecDuffy @FAANews One would imagine that the head of the FAA would already understand how controllers are trained, one might assume that this would be basic knowledge pre-requisite to being in charge of thousands of controllers.

[Penny Linsenmayer @PennyLins]

@elonmusk If you understood even the basics, you would know air traffic controllers have a legislatively mandated retirement age . . .

[Danny Boy @Care2much18]

Blaming the air traffic controller - and somehow linking it to 'diversity' - is incomprehensible nonsense from a man devoid of empathy.

ATC audio can be listened to by anybody, including the American president who can't be bothered to do that.

I'll go through the transcript. /1

@ProjectLincoln Ted Cruz!!

[VoteVets @votevets]

🇺🇸NEW: Jeff Crosby shares the legacy of his father, Harry "Croz" Crosby, a WWII hero and "Master of the Air."

His message is clear: Trump embodies everything his father fought against. "He’d crawl out of his grave and into a B-17" to stop Trump.

Now, it’s our turn to fight back—by voting for @KamalaHarris and protect everything so many served to defend.

Ted Cruz just voted against protecting IVF again. My statement:

[Fuckin’ Princess @8WithaTiara]

This is probably going to tick some people off, and I hope it does. But I’m going to keep on saying it. And once again, I am a human being, a Mom who believes in humanity.
I am extremely disappointed in so many of you who think that "not being a fan" of someone means you're entitled to shit all over them.
I want to remind you of something.
Your children are watching you complain about Taylor Swift sitting at a football game, being happy, and cheering for a man she loves in what appears to be a very loving, respectful relationship.
Your Children are watching you judge a woman for literally just EXISTING and taking up space happily.
And you know what? Ms. Swift has won 324 awards? How many do you have?
She brought $5 BILLION dollars in consumer spending and boosted the U. S. economy so significantly, that leaders from other countries actually beg for her to play there?
Did you know that there are over 20 college courses about her skills as an artist, lyricist, and musician - including at places like Harvard, Stanford & UC Berkeley?
Did you know that Taylor Swift quietly donates mass amounts of money to local food banks in every city she performs in?
AND DID YOU KNOW …
That Taylor Swift was sexually assaulted by a radio DJ, and she got him fired? When he sued HER for over $3 million for defamation, she counter sued for a symbolic $1 in a court case that took 2 YEARS for her to win. And, she did that just to show women that fighting for what's right has no price tag & to never be silent in the face of oppression.
WELL IF YOU DON’T CARE BY NOW, YOU SHOULD.
Because your daughters, nieces, and your nephews are watching you run your mouth. And they are seeing the world hate a woman who does so much good, simply because she exists in their line of sight.
DO BETTER PEOPLE.
Teach your boys to respect women. Teach your girls that as women - they are ALLOWED to take up space.
Fix it. Become aware of your words. Because we all have the ability and the obligation to fight for the future of our children with simple moments. And we need to consciously choose to be better for them.

@tedcruz You’re rarely”home in Texas” and you sure aren’t hearing that nonsense here

[fooler initiative @metroadlib]

I LITERALLY stopped working on my memo so I could read this indictment.

I am on page 24 and JESUS LUPITA NYONG'O CHRIST.

HOW this man still has the capacity to shock me after everything that's happened, i'll never know.

but I am sitting here *STUNNED*.

@RepDanCrenshaw What if …. Wait for it … what if, instead of framing it as a FIGHT, you started thinking of WORKING FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. Crazy, I know.

@tedcruz How many tweets start with “Heidi and I are praying”? Trite, meaningless, empty words that long since lost their power. DO SOMETHING or GET OUT OF THE WAY!!!!
