@POTUS How can we expect the climate funding from the Inflation Reduction Act to make any difference if we continue to invest in destructive oil developments like the Willow Project? It's projected to produce 287 million tons of CO2 and cause $20 billion in environmental damages
We can’t get universal health care, can’t cancel student loans, can’t provide clean water, housing or better public transportation, but The Pentagon can misplace $3.8 trillion. Not for the first time either. Stimulus checks caused inflation but not this? Funny how that works.
.@LeaderMcConnell TODAY you should call Leader Schumer and Senator Durbin and offer to co-sponsor Ethics reform with consequences for the Supreme Court!
NO ethical leader regardless of party can think this type of undisclosed activity should be allowed by a govt official!
BREAKING: The gun used in yesterday’s Louisville bank shooting was an AR-15-style rifle, federal law enforcement says.
The SAME gun more than 30 law enforcement officers were AFRAID to confront in Uvalde that left 19 children dead.
The SAME gun that’s been
the weapon of choice in many of the most horrific mass shootings in recent memory, including the Covenant school shooting in Nashville just two weeks ago.
The SAME gun brandished by Republican radicals like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert.
The SAME gun worn as a pin on the lapels of disgusting GOP lawmakers.
This is what we need to scream everywhere:
If 30 armed officers wearing full tactical gear with ballistic shields are too afraid to confront a single gunman with an AR-15, they SHOULD NOT be in the hands of civilians.
We have the answer. It’s the guns.
BAN ASSAULT RIFLES NOW.

This is so, so wrong.
In the 227 year history of Tennessee, only nine people have been expelled from the General Assembly:
-6 for refusing to confer citizenship on formerly enslaved persons.
-1 for taking a $1,000 bribe to kill a bill.
-1 for gross sexual misconduct.
-1 for alleged misappropriation of federal funds.
Never has a duly elected member of the legislature been expelled for doing what we elect them to do – give voice to their constituents.
Expelling Representatives @VoteGloriaJ, @brotherjones_ & @Justinjpearson will set a dangerous precedent. It will say to members of the General Assembly that they can speak on behalf of their constituents only if what they have to say is palatable to the Speaker of the House. It will say to Tennesseans that their voices only matter when Speaker Sexton agrees.
Nothing about these proposed expulsions is normal. They are a highly irregular abuse of procedural rules meant to silence dissent.
All Tennesseans must call on @Csexton25, the @TNGOP and all members of the Tennessee General Assembly to protect democracy and withdraw these resolutions at once.

These are the victims of the Nashville school shooting.
