First he attacked Obama.
Then he attacked Women.
Then he attacked Mexicans.
Then he attacked Muslims.
Then he attacked Black people.
Then he attacked LGBTQ people.
Then he attacked Immigrants.
Then he attacked 800K workers.
But he NEVER attacked Putin b/c he was working for him.
Martin Luther King Jr. believed deeply in this country’s capacity to change. But he knew that would only happen with unrelenting activism, accountability & a refusal to let injustice lie — a lesson as true today as ever. So we fight on, towards the nation he believed we could be.
I’ve always drawn inspiration from what Dr. King called life’s most persistent and urgent question: "What are you doing for others?" Let’s honor his legacy by standing up for what is right in our communities and taking steps to make a positive impact on the world.
10 years ago today, @BarackObama became the 44th POTUS.
Hope won the day. History was made. Progress followed.
As 2020 approaches, remember Obama's message.
Regardless of how far we've fallen, we can always get back up.
The MAGA hat boy's mother just blamed “black Muslims” for her son harassing a Native American man. These Trump supporters have no clue and no shame. They use racism to defend their racism & then cry that they aren’t racist. We see you all and you are all a shit stain on humanity.
On the House Floor today while Hispanic Democratic Rep. Tony Cárdenas was speaking, an unknown GOP rep yelled out:
"Go back to Puerto Rico"
YES THE GOP IS FILLED WILL RACISTS!
No, they will not win
Thank you Rep. Cárdenas for your service to this nation, including Puerto Rico
Tell @SenDougJones that Medicare Advantage couples can't afford $500 more in taxes on their health care! Stop the 2020 Medicare Health Insurance Tax now! #NoMedicare2020HIT
BREAKING: Trump just sent a letter to Speaker Pelosi saying he won’t let her fly on a US Gov’t plane to Afghanistan, said she could fly commercially into a war-zone. This trip wasn’t public, Trump leaked it in this letter, making it unsafe. Trump is the biggest danger to America.
Our visit to this planet is short, so we should use our time meaningfully, which we can do by helping others wherever possible. And if we cannot help others, at least we should try not to create pain and suffering for them.
