Liz Cheney to the GOP:

“There will come a day when Donald Trump is gone. But your dishonor will remain.”

My "weird dogs" chase and then make me get the toy. Obviously I've trained them poorly...or they're geniuses.

[Randy Rainbow @RandyRainbow]

This is the only acceptable take now. Fuck the thoughts. Fuck the prayers.

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

Stop weaponizing mental illness to excuse inaction regarding common sense gun legislation.

[Amanda Gorman @TheAmandaGorman]

Schools scared to death.
The truth is, one education under desks,
Stooped low from bullets;
That plunge when we ask
Where our children
Shall live
& how
& if

[Amanda Gorman @TheAmandaGorman]

It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity—it’s inhumanity.

As the "Don't Say Gay" bill in Florida becomes law, I'm feeling for queer, trans, and non-binary children and their families. Continue to speak your humanity as this bill speaks to the inhumanity of bigotry.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

It’s hard to believe it's been 10 years since Trayvon Martin was killed. Leading up to this anniversary, I reflected on what his death meant to me as president, as a Black parent, and as a Black man—as well as what it meant for our country.

[Clint Smith @ClintSmithIII]

Many people continue to understand poverty as a failure of individual people rather than a failure of a society to care for those with the least resources. People are not poor because they deserve to be. No one deserves poverty. Those experiencing it deserve empathy, not vitriol.

Finally...

[The New York Times @nytimes]

Willow, the plucky farm cat who interrupted a campaign speech by Jill Biden, has officially joined the first family.

“Willow is settling into the White House with her favorite toys, treats and plenty of room to smell and explore,” a spokesman said.
