7 years ago, I wrote a small piece about a man who was falsely accused of a crime.
A few days later, I got an anonymous telling me to look up the woman they called “the evilest white woman on earth.”
What happened next is the absolute wildest story you’ll ever hear
A thread
Bob Graham was a friend and a consummate public servant. As a governor, senator, and legislator, he spent decades fighting for the people of Florida. He was also a champion of the environment, which is why, after the BP oil spill, I asked Bob to co-chair a commission tasked with preventing a disaster of that magnitude from ever happening again. Michelle and I are thinking of Bob’s family today, and everyone who knew and loved him.
I need all these yahoos criticizing VP Harris—like @stephenasmith & @cthagod—saying she’s disappointing and hasn’t done anything, to please tell us what her male predecessors did that set the bar so high for her.
From Jacksonville to Miami, nearly 300 Black churches in Florida are offering Black history lessons for their communities, teaching everything from the Civil Rights Movement to Juneteenth to mass incarceration. https://t.co/FAIKpHV4u8
Hillary Clinton on the Kelly Clarkson show shed some light on the author of the Arizona 1864 law.
I decided to look him up. William Claude Jones presided over the 1st Arizona Territorial Legislative Assembly in 1864.
He was quite the rapist. Child brides were his jam.
One he abducted and married at 12 years old.
In his lifetime he also married a 15-year-old and a 14-year-old.
Come on guys, don’t you see?
“Make America Great Again.” William Claude is what Republicans strive to be. It’s what they want. It’s what they are building with these antiquated laws.
Lowering the age of consent to marry.
Giving rapists more rights than the victim.
Normalizing rape and incest.
All by design.
Now that we know, it’s up to us to stop this hideous behavior. For ourselves. For our daughters. For your wives.
Trump lit the match.

~ It was Trump's big day in court
~ A start date he couldn't abort
~ He posted nonsense on-line as if everyone's dumb
~ Then while in court he slept like a bum
~ Laughter ensued, snort, snort, snort
When my marriage ended, I was working as a paraprofessional making around $400 a week after taxes, and as a newly single mom of two kids, I struggled in a way I never had before.
If not for the child tax credit, the kindness of strangers and my friends who snuck groceries into my car so the kids didn’t see, I don’t know how I would have gotten by.
So many families understand this struggle all too well.
And that is why the Senate must pass the “Tax Relief for American Families & Workers Act of 2024" to expand the child tax credit.
Not only does it help those most in need, it’s a boost for the economy as a whole.

Pass it on.
So Arwa Mahdawi @ArwaM just wrote a nasty hit piece on @VP Kamala Harris, for the Guardian, calling her "a damp squib," and saying that "she doesn’t seem to have a genuine stance on anything" I'm not linking to the trash but I am blocking the author of it.
@RCdeWinter I've followed you for awhile; you recently followed me, thank you! I especially enjoy your poetry and your jokes bring great giggles and memories of when I told or heard them before. Thanks for brightening this corner of the world!
To all the Black kids out here celebrating and riding hard for multiple terrorist regimes,
STOP.
Get off social media. Read a book. Don’t ruin your life. The influencer you idolize won’t care when you can’t get a job, are on a no-fly list or are in prison.
Love,
Auntie Qondi
