Since I’m getting more followers I think I’m gonna introduce myself! I’m Ashley, I’m 18 and use she/her pronouns and I’m a queer trans woman. I’m from West Virginia and I’m going to college in the fall for Political Science!

Today marks 10 years since a gunman took 49 lives at Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, FL.
We honor those lost while continuing to strive for a country where LGBTQ+ people can safely be themselves.
AI deepfake videos make candidates appear to say things they never said. We’ve seen that in Kentucky, Texas and now in Vermont.
These outrageous lies are a direct threat to democracy.
Congress needs to act NOW.
Officially launching the charge of getting First Lady @MichelleObama on a future season of @TheTraitorsUS. Her season would easily go down as the best series of television ever recorded.
Platner: Susan Collins said she would only serve two terms. She's now running for her sixth. She has worked in politics longer than Joe Biden. She hasn't held a town hall since I was in eighth grade. I've held 83 town halls in the past eight months. What are you trying to hide?
Sarah McBride: “Congress’ top bathroom sheriff, Nancy Mace, was on the ballot. And while all of the votes have not yet been counted, she’s in a respectful 5th place. I don’t like to punch down and I believe in the politics of grace, so I’ll just say, Happy Pride, Nancy.”
SCOOP: Sen. Tillis sent a 15-paragraph screed to GOP senators calling them out for opposing his bid to kill the weaponization fund & continuing to push SAVE Act, arguing it’s bad for in-cycle R’s
Tillis then laid into Tuberville — and made it personal.

BREAKING: Disney Branded Television has reportedly regained the U.S. TV and streaming rights to the Pokémon anime.
The deal will bring Pokémon back to Disney XD this August, with the entire anime catalog also planned for Disney+, starting with Indigo League and gradually adding every series in the franchise.
If Peltola had chosen to run for the open-seat governor position, she'd probably be the odds-on favorite to win.
And governor is a much better job. More personal power, Dems actually weirdly enough have coalition majorities in both chambers of the AK legislature, and no 12+ hour flight to DC (and remember her husband passed away recently in a plane crash.)
But she challenged an incumbent for Senate, which is much more important nationally. An extremely noble personal sacrifice. Many Dems (cough cough Whitmer, the 10 million people running in ME gubernatioral) could learn from her.
Finally a queen who is expressing her ACTUAL emotions in the moment. I am tired of divas trying to keep it cute and cordial because they’re scared of how they’ll be perceived. If you’re mad, be mad. If you’re hurt, be hurt. $200,000 is on the line after all #DragRace#AllStars
