@0liviajulianna deserves a follow. 👏#MattGaetzIsTriggered

[Sam Schmir @Sam_Schmir]

Less than two days ago, @0liviajulianna was publicly body-shamed by Republican Rep @mattgaetz. But she didn't take it to heart. Instead, she used the opportunity to raise money for abortion funds.

In just 42 hours, she raised more than $275,000. The power of social media 🤯

The same people who organized a coup against the US also did everything they could to gut Roe. Worth remembering always.

Whew. #LizCheney.

It can never be acceptable that geography determines whether a woman has access to reproductive rights or not. #RoeVWade #abortionishealthcare

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

An extremist Supreme Court is poised to overturn #RoeVWade and impose its far-right, unpopular views on the entire country. It's time for the millions who support the Constitution and abortion rights to stand up and make their voices heard. We're not going back—not ever.

The sunken, sick, stunned feeling I had on election night 2016 is back. #RoeVsWade

The wind picked up…and this happened. #Newburyport

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

Baseball is Bliss. On the radio. On TV. Or in the stands. Big Leagues. Minor Leagues. College. High School. Or Little League. The pitcher peers down from the mount. The batter digs in. Play ball.

Do me a favor, fans.

Now, and throughout the season, when you see #RedSox stats and notes you like be sure to re-tweet them! Re-tweeting costs you nothing and helps spread the word about @RSNStats to other fans.

Please and thank you for following along here.

Special story, great writer.

[Tracee Herbaugh🌻 @T_Marie]

3 years ago my grandmother died. It’s a lifetime ago, mostly because of Covid. I wrote this a few weeks after her death, when brain fog still permeated, and I could barely sleep. It feels like forever ago & then like not much has changed at all.

@angem25 Remembering the Sox and your grandmom tonight, my friend. 🌻

[Christine Baratta @cbaratta5]

17 years ago…Watched with a sleeping 5YO son and our newly adopted beagle, Fenway. At the last out (because, you know…1986), shook him and yelled, “Wake up, the #RedSox are going to win the World Series!”Still says he will never forget that moment. Me neither. ⚾️♥️

Moving on. @RedSox

[Christine Baratta @cbaratta5]

Had to be in car for first 3 @RedSox innings. Could have kept going, just to listen to Joe Castiglione. ⚾️
