"We often call on technology to help solve problems. But when society defines, frames, & represents people of color as 'the problem,' those solutions often do more harm than good." ––@datasociety Advisor @cmcilwain https://t.co/zGeJDtuPi8

@realDonaldTrump Since Reps like @AOC have their heritage traced back to Puerto Rico, ie the US, unfortunately that makes @realDonaldTrump right when he says they “came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world.”

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

The President of the United States is:
—Telling members of Congress to leave the country.
—Ordering mass raids on immigrants.
—Building more camps to detain migrant children.
—Ordering the government to collect citizenship information.

This is how far we’ve fallen.

[Jay Inslee @JayInslee]

The coordinated smear campaign on Senator @KamalaHarris is racist and vile. The Trump family is peddling birtherism again and it’s incumbent on all of us to speak out against it.

I will give $1,000/mo for the next 12 months FREE to someone who retweets this and follows me by July 4th 😃 Let's show why money is the answer & why this is the campaign for people. No purchase necessary. US citizens only. https://t.co/ie7DMHJ86X

America saw tonight what I’ve seen for 25 years. Couldn’t be more proud of @KamalaHarris.

@shaunking @CabanForQueens @shaunking how do we email you? “[email protected]” doesn’t work.

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

When politicians are allowed to pick their constituents, they too often place themselves beyond accountability — that's why I'm joining @EricHolder and taking @demredistrict’s pledge to support fair districts and end manipulation.

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

By the way, a tariff is a tax. So if you ever believe the Republicans don't raise taxes, that's what they're doing right now.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Since there’s so many people running for President (& not enough for Senate), instead of obsessing over who‘s a “frontrunner,” maybe we can start w some general eliminations.

This awful, untrue line got boo’ed for a full minute.

John Delaney, thank you but please sashay away 👋🏽

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Yep! It means we shouldn’t check our rights at the door whenever we work for an employer.

It means workers should have dignity + power - incl. economic rights, like healthcare, a living wage, and a decent education.

It doesn’t mean “government owns everything + distributes it.”

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

California’s what happens when rights are respected. When work is rewarded. When nature’s protected. When diversity is celebrated and free markets are fair markets.

We are nothing less than the progressive answer to a transgressive President. #CADEM19

For a moment, I thought he was talking about the 2016 election!

I hope and pray the @NRA is on its last legs

[Jaime Harrison @harrisonjaime]

I’m old enough to remember when Senators could work together in a bipartisan fashion, were loyal to friends & colleagues, understood their oath was to protect the constitution (not a president) & actually had backbones to stand up against intolerance. #ImBringingItBack #JoinJaime

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

I’m sure EVERY state passing abortion bans will also be prosecuting ICE officials for the deaths of premature babies that happen in their custody?

Right? Since they intend on jailing doctors, surely they’ll jail ICE for the same thing.

[The Hill @thehill]

.@AOC: "Any job that pays $2.13 an hour is not a job. It's indentured servitude. All labor has dignity and the way that we give labor dignity is by paying people the respect and the value that they are worth... We have to raise the national minimum wage to $15 an hour."

[Adam Smith @asmith83]

The Ted Cruz/AOC lobbyist thing today is a good reminder that grassroots anger at our campaign finance system is not a partisan issue outside DC and elected Republican opposition to reform is really out of touch.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

If you are a member of Congress + leave, you shouldn’t be allowed to turn right around&leverage your service for a lobbyist check.

I don’t think it should be legal at ALL to become a corporate lobbyist if you’ve served in Congress.

At minimum there should be a long wait period.
