@rjochoa That’s about to change.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

For the people. Always.

Retweet if you proudly voted for Kamala Harris!

Donald Trump has spent a decade trying to keep people divided and afraid of each other. That is who he is.

But America, I am here to say: That’s not who we are.

[Jemele Hill @jemelehill]

The Washington Post hasn’t sat out a presidential endorsement since 1988. Don’t tell me that Kamala Harris isn’t being held to unfair standards when the Los Angeles Times and Washington Post both had owners intervene to stop their own editorial boards from endorsing her. This is not how newspapers are supposed to work. This is the same Washington Post who claimed “democracy dies in darkness.”

No, it dies with clueless, terrible billionaires.

@InternetH0F This is a PSA. Thank you for letting us know (crossing Bali off the bucket list!)

[Christopher Webb @cwebbonline]

Who is the REAL J.D.Vance? I don’t know, and you don’t either—but he’s too extreme and radical to be a heartbeat away from the presidency.

🚨 Rachel Maddow just dropped a bombshell on the eve of the VP debate: Vance wants to shut down universities, seize their endowments, and “destroy all the things which conservatives don’t have complete control over.”

Seriously, WUT?

Oh, and he idolizes Curtis Yarvin, a guy with white nationalist pro-slavery views who believes we need to “get over our dictator phobia” and race determines societal hierarchy and intelligence. Sound familiar?

These toxic, racist ideologies belong in a dumpster fire—not in 2024.

More Americans need to know this, a lot more:

I guess I need to clear up some more misinformation about Kamala Harris. 🤷🏾‍♂️

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

We are the heirs to the greatest democracy in the history of the world.

Generations before us fought for the freedom to vote. Now, we must use the power of our votes to protect the freedoms we hold dear.

Theyhe SC Dept. of Education canceled AP African American Studies, @thegrio spoke with teachers, school administrators & superintendents to find out why SC essentially canceled the ONLY accredited HS course in Black History.

THey all had the same answer.

A thread.

These comments on my reparations post are such an affirmation of this Michel-Rolf Trouillot quote: “We are never as steeped in history as when we pretend not to be, but if we stop pretending we may gain in understanding what we lose in false innocence. Naiveté is often an excuse for those who exercise power. For those upon whom that power is exercised, naiveté is always a mistake.” I see why they are banning the 1619 Project and AP African American history. So many Americans need — no, require — their delusions and their false innocence. To grapple honestly with the singular plundering of Black people and their own ill-gotten gains would destroy these fragile people.

[Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones]

What we are witnessing, once again, is the alignment of white power against racial justice and redress. We now have a legal landscape that takes the very laws created to eliminate the anti-Black caste system and uses them destroy racial justice efforts. The Supreme Court has determined actual school segregation is fine, but efforts to remedy it are unconstitutional.

The conversation about Caitlin Clark reminds me of one of my favorite stories about of basketball’s forgotten GOATs and a strange NBA stat

A thread.

Lankford: I had a popular commentator that told me flat out, if you try to move a bill that solves the border crisis during this presidential year, I will do whatever I can to destroy you. Because I do not want you to solve this during the presidential election.

It should be clear by now that immigration is a problem more useful to the GOP than the solution.

This is all part of the broader plan to sow chaos and dysfunction — and it's being driven by Trump as his main campaign strategy.

Don't fall for it.

[Adrienne @grim_miss]

@goldietaylor I’m good.
