The screams of this Palestinian boy, who was being burned alive in an Israeli bombing, will tear your soul apart.
Unless your name is Joe Biden, that is.
#CeasefireNOW
Biden claims he's pushing Israel to be more sensitive to civilian casualties while sending Israel 2,000lb bombs that Israel drops on residential buildings that kill scores of civilians.
Yesterday, one such bomb killed 76 members of the same family.

Tell DNC that I'm a 6 decade Democratic voter, but I won't vote for Biden if he doesn't stop supporting this Slaughter and Order Netanyahu Stand Down and CEASEFIRE.
@SenatorLankford Both Ds & Rs in congress are opposed to being audited.
Super rich Rs & Ds are NOT paying their tax share & NOT being audited. "Wealthy Americans skirt $160 BILLION a year in tax payment. Black taxpayers are audited at least 3 times more than non-Black taxpayers", study finds.

Was it the rapper?
Frankly, I think you're beautiful and
@BreeNewsome@SarynRuth Defunding & abolishing the Police isn't the answer. Ending the #warondrugs and demilitarizing the police is essential. Taking funding from the #warondrugs & reinvest that money into the communities I believe will have the biggest impact. War on drugs is destroying communities.

Yea I was at the hearing this morning, & yea like many of my colleagues on both sides of the aisle, I got pretty frustrated. Oklahoma deserves, at minimum, a state superintendent who comes prepared, and leaves their campaign talking points at home.
You won. Move on. Do the job.
Alan Greenspan, if we don’t reverse “a quarter century of increases in income inequality, the cultural ties ... could become undone. Disaffection, breakdowns of authority, even large-scale violence could ensue, jeopardizing the civility on which growing economies depend.”
