Honored to be able to share strategies for navigating grief in small business. It’s a very tough time. The grief is real. #grief #smallbusiness #coronavirus https://t.co/hbmEqrvF7v

fuck you roberts.
fuck you thomas.
fuck you alito.
fuck you kavanaugh.
fuck you gorsuch.
fuck you coney barrett.

Justice Thomas concurs, saying overruling Roe isn't enough. "For that reason, in future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents, including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell." That's right to privacy, contraception, marriage equality,etc

[Cori Bush @CoriBush]

Abortion care IS health care. It was so before this. And it will remain so after this.

We don’t care what a far-right extremist Supreme Court that is in a crisis of legitimacy says. Your racist, sexist, classist ruling won’t stop us from accessing the care we need.

[Scott Dworkin @funder]

The Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade is one of the most un-American things that’s happened in our lifetime. I’m ready to work like hell to make sure this does not stand. Are you?

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Today is one of the darkest days our country has ever seen

American women are having their rights taken by 5 unelected Justices on the extremist MAGA court

These justices—appointed by Republicans and presiding without accountability—have stolen the fundamental right to abortion

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

So states can decide you must carry a fetus but not whether you can carry a concealed gun?

[Jeff Tiedrich @itsJeffTiedrich]

what kind of shithole country makes easier to get a gun than to get healthcare

@ECMcLaughlin I’m in Portland and mine is reading 116 too.

Stop saying "abolish the filibuster." Start saying "approve legislation by a simple majority."

RIP Beverly Cleary. Millions of girls saw themselves in Ramona Quimby. Thank you from all the “pests” out there.

[Leslie Barber @lsbarber]

@marceelias And how many are SO grateful for you and really admire you for your work.

[Leslie Barber @lsbarber]

To grieve is to be human. It is to love. We have a President who understands this. #BidenCalm

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

In the loss, we’ve seen how much there is to gain — in appreciation, respect, and gratitude.

Finding light in the darkness is a very American thing to do.

[Leslie Barber @lsbarber]

Yes. So much yes. We have lost lives. And we have lost living. Thank you for understanding!

@katgordon My beloved therapist, Ellen, died 18 months after Steve. It was horrific.

[Leslie Barber @lsbarber]

@RepDean My heart aches for your loss of your mother, Joan. Sending my deepest condolences. Thank you for your important work.

[Leslie Barber @lsbarber]

We remember.

“Today, I ask all Americans to remember — remember those we lost and those who are left behind.” — President Biden on the more than 500,000 lives lost to COVID-19

[Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1]

Jen Psaki: President Biden will order flags lowered to half staff for 5 days in memory of the 500,000 American lives lost to COVID-19.

COVID cases in the United States have dropped by more than 50% since Joe Biden was inaugurated
