@WhiteHouse Many times, as a child, I went boating on Lake Michigan with my dad, a steel mill worker who died of mesothelioma. I wrote In The Beginning Was Gary, Indiana, a fiction, while grieving. Research fueled my pain as I reckoned with the environmental injustice and racism. #wetlands
Dear @SpeakerMcCarthy: Do you even know what the charges are? Have you seen any of the grand jury evidence? No.
You are being a craven, partisan politician who doesn’t respect the rule of law. In America, no one is above the law, including the person to whom you bend your knee.
It was Donald Trump who broadcasted to the world the FBI raided his home to retrieve top secret documents. And it’s Donald Trump who has broadcasted to the world that he’ll soon be arrested. His goal is acts of violence in his name. And we must be prepared to protect against it.
@AdamKinzinger My husband and I and some friends visited Dachau in probably 1996. We walked through an exhibition on the concentration camp grounds and the energy got heavier and heavier. By the time we exited we all felt a physical depression.
Woke is choosing reality over conspiracy, hope over fear, courage over cowardice and empathy over cruelty for a better future. Woke is about addressing past injustices of our country- not because it's easy but because it is hard and necessary to create a more perfect union.
One lesson of Jan 6 is this: Trump’s lies, spread on TV & social media, provoked a violent attack on our Capitol. No responsible adult, and especially no American pledged to our Constitution, should deny what happened or repeat the same reckless lies.
You can’t believe a thing coming from Tucker Carlson. But that’s very obvious by now. If the Dominion case doesn’t go to trial, along with payment the judge should rule Carlson, Hannity and Ingraham must make PSA announcements announcing they lied to be played for a year on FOX.
My husband and I are becoming more livid by the minute. How is it that Tucker Carlson gets a personal stash of information that so important to the United States of America? What is going on here? This ain’t right. #McCarthy
