For @wsj to say flat out that SVB could have failed because they added non-white men to their board shows how far behind the times (and certifiably stupid) this publication really is. It makes me so angry and very sad. WSJ readers and staff deserve better.

Talked with a Professor at Harvard Law yesterday about this. Can confirm.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Think about this.

There is not a single state or county in America today where a full-time worker making minimum wage can afford the rent for a two-bedroom home.

Does that sound remotely acceptable to you?

[Governor Jared Polis @GovofCO]

Coloradans do not want politicians making their healthcare decisions. We will continue to choose freedom, stand against government control over our bodies, and will not retreat to an archaic era where the powerful few controlled the freedoms over our bodies and health decisions.

[Seth Moulton @sethmoulton]

Just so everyone knows, these are the states - including Massachusetts - that had one of their gun laws overturned today.

1 year ago today Senate Republicans confirmed Amy Coney Barrett 8 days before election when 65 million people had already voted after blocking Merrick Garland 8 months before election. Never forget

'Tomorrow!' cried Toad. 'I will do it all tomorrow!'

Trust, if they give it to you with this lid, that shit is LAVA. Pull that tab to try and sip it, burn ya lip off. Now you holding a cup of lava you can’t reseal,

[Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones]

Our children must learn that we are the greatest and freest country in the history of the world, and we will demonstrate this by barring educators from teaching things we do not like, and in the name of liberty, mandating government control of what ideas can be exchanged.

My dad watches a lot of HGTV and never, ever do they show the faces of the Latino men who are actually performing the home renovations. They are just brown arms. That's all you see.

[Armand Domalewski @ArmandDoma]

during his nomination, Kavanaugh argued that he shouldn’t be held accountable for something he did as a teenager

today, he ruled that teenagers should be imprisoned for life without a chance for parole

[Chris Hayes @chrislhayes]

The Trump mob attack on the capitol now has a higher death toll than Benghazi.

[Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang]

Airlines got $25 billion in bailout money and cut 90,000 workers anyway. We are spending money to prop up companies that should just go directly to people and families.

[African American Policy Forum @AAPolicyForum]

This election should put to rest the idea President Trump is an aberration. He and the white supremacist ideals he embodies are part and parcel of our nation's long history of racism and violence, a history that we have never reckoned with.

[Charlotte @charphelps]

One thing this election has confirmed is that white people are embarrassed(?) to say they’re voting for Trump, but not too embarrassed to not actually do it.
