This morning, Betsy DeVos woke up on her yacht and thought “what disadvantaged group can I take federal funding away from today?”
Don’t judge Betsy DeVos until you sail a mile in her yacht.
Come see @drewdroege @daivadeupree and Julanne Chidi Hill in my play “Born To Win” at the @Celebrationthtr ITS GOING TO BE INSANE. https://t.co/PR03FWtwzl
Very happy to say I’m no longer the *only* openly LGBTQ U.S. Senator.
Congratulations to @kyrstensinema on a well-deserved victory. The upper chamber is lucky to have your steady leadership.
Memo to select media-you know who you are. For three days Rick Scott has alleged voter fraud. For three days he has refused to provide any evidence. For three days he’s received massive coverage of his charges. Please consider not repeating his claims until he produces evidence
Dear @realDonaldTrump: What is wrong with you? Disaster victims deserve help & sympathy.
Oh, and guess who owns much of the forest land in CA? Your federal agencies. CA only owns 2%. Guess who cut funding to forest management in the budget? YOU DID.
#SaturdayMorning Thoughts
Dear @realDonaldTrump: FYI below from a first responder. Can you please get a briefing from your staff before you write anymore nonsense about the
#CaliforniaWildfires? First responders and my constituents who were evacuated would appreciate it if you knew the facts.
Dear @realDonaldTrump: Instead of making uninformed statements about the #CaliforniaWildfires, perhaps you can visit my constituents who had their houses burned down and the first responders who are valiantly fighting the fires. Remember, you are President for all Americans.
Good morning.
Florida Republicans write laws to deny the right to vote to 20% of African-Americans.
They gerrymander districts to disenfrachnce Democrats.
Their Congressmen in DC fight against the Voting Rights Act.
FYI there’s only one party cheating in Florida.
Michelle and I are heartbroken for everybody who’s lost so much in California, and grateful for the heroism of the firefighters who’ve been risking their lives around the clock to save others. Please do what you can to help our fellow Americans in need: https://t.co/13rm1D6Rwk
To all our veterans and your families: thank you. There's no tribute that can truly match the magnitude of your service and sacrifice. But all of us can do our best to live up to the American values of service, responsibility, generosity, and citizenship that you helped defend.
40% of ALL Americans currently struggle to pay for one basic need like food or rent.
As much as @FoxNews likes to mock the working-class, the real scandal is that at the wealthiest point in our history, we are at one of our most unequal.
Most Americans are barely scraping by.
As someone who has had my press credentials denied by authoritarian China, I never thought I'd see this crap happen in the US. And this "most reporters are okay but @Acosta is aggressive" thing is the EXACT line Chinese propaganda printed about me. It's a tactic, people.
Hey MAGA people, just fuck off with your fake ass outrage about a reporter politely refusing to give up a microphone.
You literally elected a man who admitted he grabs women by the genitals against their consent.
I neither believe nor give one fuck about your idiotic argument.
At this point, shouldn’t we just be ignoring what trump says? Let’s all stop amplifying his message or responding to his tweets or airing his rallies. Let’s focus on the people who can get us out of this mess.
There is one party that wants healthcare: they are Democrats. There is one party who wants gun reform. They are Democrats. There is one party who believes it’s a right to vote. They are Democrats. There is one party who says nothing when our president lies. They are Republicans.
