[Daniel Henry 🇺🇸🇭🇹🏳️‍🌈 @DanielHenryJAX]

Congratulations to Councilwoman Moné Holder on officially taking her seat on the Jacksonville City Council! 🇺🇸🎉

A new chapter begins today — and I’m proud to see another strong Democratic voice fighting for Jacksonville and the people who call our city home.

Artemis II is home! #history 🙏🏾🫡

We will never forget the lives lost on September 11, 2001.

Twenty-four years later, we continue to share their stories, support their loved ones, and honor the heroes who responded that day and in the years that followed.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

We don’t yet know what motivated the person who shot and killed Charlie Kirk, but this kind of despicable violence has no place in our democracy. Michelle and I will be praying for Charlie’s family tonight, especially his wife Erika and their two young children.

[Dr. Ivana Rich-Leitner @Ivana_RichHER]

We have taken our talents to Toronto! 🇨🇦
Thrilled to share that I’ve joined the NHLPA as Sr. Manager, Strategic Initiatives, where I’ll help drive innovative programs like NHLPA UNLMT, supporting player development and growth on and off the ice.🏒🥅 #hockey #athletedevelopment #womeninhockey

I left the council dais tonight as colleagues tried to cram bans on DEI, abortion & immigration into Jacksonville’s budget. Our Charter isn’t a toy. Local budgets fund local needs—not culture wars. My voice won’t be silenced. #DuvalForward

[Rahman Johnson, Ph.D. @rahmanj]

Idiocy is believing that you are relevant, even when your relevance has faded years before.

[Rahman Johnson, Ph.D. @rahmanj]

@ReedEmerald55 Find facts to back up your assertions. Then again that's would take reading.

[Rahman Johnson, Ph.D. @rahmanj]

This uninformed colleague of mine said that people in my district support a millage rate reduction. That's just not true. Lead with the truth not pseudo-facts created in the vacuousness of a brain that has not digested ANY facts.

[Rahman Johnson, Ph.D. @rahmanj]

There is NOT waste in the proposed budget.

[Rahman Johnson, Ph.D. @rahmanj]

I have no idea where you're going to go out to eat for $1...let me know. #TheMathAintMathing

[Duval County Democratic Party @DuvalDEC]

Councilman @rahmanj added:
“Here we are again, focusing on state & national issues instead of the things our community actually needs. This is just a sad way for somebody to get attention.”

[!Nspirenaire⚠️ @Inspirenaire]

Whew, that period of time when communication was clocked!!! It was imperative that you learned how to say what you mean and mean what you said and you didn’t beat around the bush saying it. If too much sweet talk could give you diabetes, then what would talking too much shit do?

[G-PA @IndianaGPA]

I needed to hear this today 🙏😊

[Jalicia Lewis @jalicia_lewis]

“Is there a standard definition that we have for DEI? *pause* “What is it?”

*longer pause*

“Clearly no one can answer the question because it is not answerable”

As always good stuff from @rahmanj

[Rahman Johnson, Ph.D. @rahmanj]

Implicit bias is what tiny people do to make themselves feel better.

[Rahman Johnson, Ph.D. @rahmanj]

@FirepitMike We are at the end of the Finance Committee budget hearings. A member just proposed this. It is a sad day for Jacksonville. Our strength is in our uniqueness.

[Rahman Johnson, Ph.D. @rahmanj]

This is what Implicit Bias looks like. 🎤🫳
