Trump has given a green light to cops and militias to beat, maim and kill people with impunity.

He has now illegally activated the military to maintain power and use force on civilians.

The red line has been crossed too many times.

He must resign.

Our lives depend on it.

I signed in to Twitter for the first time in months looking for things exactly like this; as I find more I'll retweet #blacklivesmatter #amplifymelanatedvoices

[April @ReignOfApril]

I don’t care what color your avi is. It feels like “turn your avi black for a single day” is the “wear a safety pin” of a few years ago. Instead, use #BlackoutTuesday to amplify the voices of Black folks. Commit to how you are going to become an anti-racist. Those things matter.

@drpaulgosar took your BS poll about abortion. The deliberate mischaracterization of a legitimate and legal medical procedure is really shameful. You shouldn’t be allowed to call yourself a doctor of anything.

@GhostingDani @richwithtea @GhostingDani you shut your damn mouth.

[Emily Lyons @The_emilyon]

@GhostingDani @richwithtea I stan for Armand tbh.

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

Congress may not have the courage yet to pass real gun reforms – but @GabbyGiffords has plenty of courage to spare. Grateful for @GiffordsCourage’s leadership and tireless efforts to #EndGunViolence, and to be with Gabby in this fight. We can do this, together.

Imagine a much more dangerous world than the one we live in, in which dread that your child would die of communicable disease was constant. That world gave us vaccines, and we would do well to remember that.

"I have a phrase I use in vaccine arguments: 'Until you’ve had to read as many accounts of women holding their babies while they died as I have had to do, you don’t get to say vaccines are the dangerous thing here./"https://t.co/pMnnsQv6r8

@fakedansavage @StillBisexual @BRC_Central @BiDotOrg @_personals_ Okcupid is not great but it’s the best of the mainstream dating apps/sites imo.

[Emily Lyons @The_emilyon]

@fakedansavage @StillBisexual @BRC_Central @BiDotOrg My history is v similar to Not Faking’s. I’ve had the most success meeting bi and bi-friendly women through @_personals_ on Instagram

[Emily Lyons @The_emilyon]

Thanks again @herong for connecting everyone! 💖💜💙

@hannahbeeblogs I received your delightful package from the #BiPanGiftExchange today! Thank you!!!

[Emily Lyons @The_emilyon]

Just a sampling of the treats. Dairy milk buttons lasted all of 30 seconds.

[Emily Lyons @The_emilyon]

@KendraSerra Oh yay that’s me! So glad you got it/liked it!

Incels — involuntary celibates — are part of the online male supremacist ecosystem. We track male supremacy extremists because of the way they denigrate and dehumanize women, often including advocating physical and sexual violence against them.

@JeffFlake so after all you are as much of a moral coward as any of them. Whatever you plan to do after your term is up, expect no support or respect from women.

[Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth]

This behavior is absolutely horrifying. There MUST be an immediate FBI investigation into Judge Kavanaugh's conduct & Mark Judge MUST be subpoenaed to testify before the Senate if necessary. I thank Julie for her courage & urge ppl to treat her with the respect she deserves.

[Emily Lyons @The_emilyon]

@JeffFlake Please Senator Flake, do the right thing and oppose Kavanaugh’s confirmation.

[Emily Lyons @The_emilyon]

Every man (and woman, frankly) piping up to defend #BrettKavanaugh can, in the words of my mother, “f*** all the way off.” #BelieveSurvivors
