BREAKING: The House just failed to pass a resolution to end Trump's war with Iran by one vote.
The count was 213-214.
Just one Democrat, Jared Golden, voted to let Trump keep waging the war.

"Since Trump took office, electricity prices have risen 13%. For Black households who already spend 43% more of our income on energy than white households, that is a major blow. Families are having to grapple with the decision to either feed their children or warm their houses," writes @MsAConner, Director of the Center for Environmental and Climate Justice.

A lot of people in this country including the President sound like Research Guy right now. I have some advice:
Do not allow these people to run you out of the room.
Do not stop working.
Do not give them the benefit of the doubt.
They have no idea of your power.
Show them.
You know what Research Guy said? In front of a handful of our colleagues at dinner he told me I only had my job because I was Black and if our candidate hadn’t had issues with Black people I wouldn’t have gotten the job.
The was the first time someone had ever so clearly said “it” to my face…
