[Charles Booker @Booker4KY]

My name is Charles Booker. My pronouns are he/him. I believe with everything in me that no one should be discriminated against or harmed in any way because of their identity, their humanity, or who they love.

Trans lives matter.

Right now. That 270 Vote route to win. Hinges on a historically red state, Arizona, flipping.
The margin is 93K.
There are 330,000 potential Native voters in AZ. Yet the media still refuses to even say our names.

Say it with me...

NATIVES ARE IMPORTANT.

Sounds reasonable. What’s disheartening is seeing the sarcastic responses, as if we’re not seeing the worst numbers since the summer.

If you’re more upset about some property damage than about the police murdering another unarmed Black man, there’s something wrong with you.

I spent 24hrs in this N95 doing 7 c-sections, 3 vaginal deliveries including one for twins, managed a severe postpartum hemorrhage, and spent another 2hrs in the OR with a GYN emergency.

You can spend 30 min in a mask at the grocery store.

New research reveals that, so long as you remove all the pizza, the cardboard container that held your Veggie Supreme can be readily recycled. Recycling expert @AdamMinter has the story: https://t.co/mDMQwkz2NQ @Sierra_Magazine

“These are the words that Rep. Yoho levied against a congresswoman that not only represents NY-14, but every congresswoman and woman in this country because all of us have had to deal with this...at some point in our lives.” -@AOC

So is the implication that statues and buildings are more important to protect than residents? If not then what point are they making?

[Kelly Bauer @BauerJournalism]

Brown on weekend violence: "We need officers on the ground in these neighborhoods to protect residents. When they have to be moved ... to address mob action, thats fewer officers to protect residents in the neighborhoods on the South and West sides."

@DicDonohue What are the primary objections to the bill? The article doesn’t go into any depth.

@YTHorg I just learned that you are emailing passwords associated with accounts for your conference. This is very concerning. Please fix this security flaw. Thanks!

[JenBotJones @jenbotjones]

My child has Covid19 symptoms. Immediate care “isn’t testing today”. IDPH takes 4-10 days for results. Our pediatrician is closed. Only choice is ER. It’s this hard to get tested today. @chicagosmayor how will testing look if schools open & 1,000s more need to be tested daily?
