This pony working up the courage to jump this tiny step is everything.

For those to hate ads admiting that some of them may be brilliant is a long shot. But watch this:

@evanwch Do you sincerely believe that the only concern this person has with AI technology is ideological bias? I don’t think that’s a reasonable assumption.

The context makes it worse—0.1% holds 25 TRILLION DOLLARS??

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

The richest 0.1% of Americans hold nearly as much wealth as the bottom 90% of families combined.

We need a wealth tax now.

Love this!!

I'm running to be Wisconsin’s next Democratic governor.

My campaign is built on one goal: to improve life for working Wisconsinites. That means real solutions that create jobs, support families, and deliver opportunity in every zip code — from rural towns to urban neighborhoods

@daveweigel Ahhh Hemingway. Well played

[Joan Favretto @joanorelsie]

@libertarianism @Thomas_A_Berry Tommy! You look the same! Nice civics lesson!

[Joan Favretto @joanorelsie]

@evanwch Rather than presume there is any consistent standard of evaluation, isn’t it more honest to say this is another example of petty politicizing of all things? Everything becomes symbolically charged and then we end passionately arguing about things that don’t matter. Just a thought

[Joan Favretto @joanorelsie]

@CWMadel You are brave and I am so encouraged that people with integrity still exist in Washington. Ironically, your willingness to step away makes me think you could have been a good governor, even though we politically disagree. Thank you for your courage.

[Joan Favretto @joanorelsie]

@shannonrwatts This is a ridiculous zero sum way of thinking. It pits our compassion against our desire to build a fairer world. I would like to address both problems, and I think people are more likely to work with you when they feel heard and understood.

We can’t let these women fight by themselves.

This is me 🥲

[Joan Favretto @joanorelsie]

It’s still shocking to see normal, pro-democracy, politics speak come out of the mouth of the president. Gets me every time.

[Department of State @StateDept]

.@POTUS: We must meet this new moment of accelerating global challenges — from a pandemic to the climate crisis to nuclear proliferation — challenges that will only be solved by nations working together in common cause.

Yoga employs more Americans than coal. But compare and contrast 1/2

@julielarson211 Love you mommy

[Joan Favretto @joanorelsie]

Brilliant

This isn’t going to stop on it’s own

This was sent out from the Smith campaign in North Carolina in the last hour.

Very moving

[Joan Favretto @joanorelsie]

@RepNancyMace Can we focus on the attempted coup? Peoples lives are in danger!

[David Plouffe @davidplouffe]

You don’t “move on” after an insurrection and attempted coup organized by a sitting U.S. President and incited by top political leaders in his party. It must be front and center today, tomorrow, next month, next year and for many to come.
