Never forget that we moved heaven and earth to bring Osama bin Laden to justice. Not because he flew an airplane into the World Trade Center on 9/11, but because he incited his followers to do it for him.
Now the world is waiting for us to hold Donald J. Trump accountable.
Today in 1853, the abolitionist and writer Solomon Northup—who was kidnapped and sold into slavery in Louisiana—regained his freedom. That the same year, he wrote and published his memoir, Twelve Years a Slave (it's excerpted in this LOA volume: https://t.co/E1qxVYsFny).
On Russian state TV: “The more we burn in Ukraine, the easier it will be for us to bomb Europe and United States."
Tucker Carlson supports this. He’s a traitor.
On this day in 1894, a Jewish officer in the French army by the name of Alfred Dreyfus is falsely convicted of treason for supposedly passing military secrets to Germany. The revelation that he is in fact innocent will later rock France.
.@ZelenskyyUa has more character in his left earlobe than you or your father ever had in your bodies your entire lives. Perhaps your time would be better spent checking out Federal Bureau of Prisons rules on family visits.

4. Give permanent citizenship to the dreamers.
I’m @skinnerpm on Post and theeastsideorangeys on Instagram. Misogyny & antisemitism & racism & the gun-humping & the proudly anti-knowledge big mouths & just the sheer gracelessness of the greedy & the dumb are all around us in real life. I choose not to be around it here.
These people try to come off as tough guys but all it seems like they do - all day long - is cry about being a victim. The only thing they are more addicted to than social media is embracing victimhood.
Everybody is biased. All media is biased. Every social media platform is biased. MSNBC is biased. Fox News is biased. CNN is biased. PBS is biased. The WSJ is biased. The LA Times is biased. Old Twitter was biased. New Twitter is biased. Facebook is biased.
We’re all biased.
