1996. That’s when the last residential school closed

I graduated in 1995 from one of them.

Don’t tell me or anyone else that this was a long time ago.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

As of today, 50% of American adults are fully vaccinated.

That’s a big deal, folks.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

George Floyd was murdered one year ago today. Since then, hundreds more Americans have died in encounters with police—parents, sons, daughters, friends taken from us far too soon. But the last year has also given us reasons to hope.

[Governor Tony Evers @GovEvers]

Today, we honor George Floyd's life and legacy. We pray for peace and healing for his family, and recommit to honoring his memory by making meaningful, systemic change toward justice in our state and country.

BREAKING: MANHATTAN DA CY VANCE CONVENED A GRAND JURY TO PROSECUTE TRUMP.

IT IS HAPPENING.

Republicans would rather expel a person who says the former guy lost the 2020 election than expel a sex trafficker, a pedophile enabler, and a twice-impeached insurrection inciter.

The GOP is over.

NEW: Los Angeles reports zero Covid deaths for second straight day

[John Fugelsang @JohnFugelsang]

The people who preached herd immunity in 2020
are now the reason we won't reach herd immunity in 2021.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

Get vaccinated. Wear a mask. Save lives.

[ACLU @ACLU]

We will never begin to achieve true justice for George Floyd until our country completely transforms public safety to save Black lives and reduce racist police violence.

[ACLU @ACLU]

The majority of people killed by police in America are killed in response to mental health crisis calls, traffic infractions, and other low-level offenses.

Black people are arrested and killed by police at far higher rates than white people.

[ACLU @ACLU]

Armed police are not needed in these situations, and in fact increase violence and danger.

Instead of using force, arrests, and preventable death, we can ensure that trained civilian professionals are our first responders.

[ACLU @ACLU]

We need the Biden administration to publicly encourage cities nationwide to embrace alternative approaches to armed police officers and begin helping cities transition away from using police as the first and only responders.

[Minthara’s Black Wife 🇸🇩🇵🇸🇨🇩🇵🇷 @TheRealRynnstar]

DEREK CHAUVIN GUILTY ON ALL COUNTS.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

Funding body cameras.
Funding more trainings.
Funding updated use of force guidelines.

All that funding and reform hasn’t stopped the police from killing people or made our communities safer.

The problem is systemic and it requires systemic solutions.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

Happy Friday Eve to everyone except for Tommy Tuberville and the other 5 racist GOP Senators who voted against the Anti-Asian Hate bill.

It still passed 92-6, but damn.

[Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson]

The good thing about Science is that it’s true, whether or not you believe in it.

[The Associated Press @AP]

BREAKING: Buckingham Palace says Prince Philip, husband of Queen Elizabeth II, has died aged 99.

[Governor Tony Evers @GovEvers]

Wisconsin continues to be a national leader in getting shots in arms—we've now administered more than 3,000,000 #COVID19 vaccine doses and more than a third of Wisconsinites have received one dose of the vaccine. Let's keep it up and put this pandemic behind us.
