“Do not accept brutality and cruelty as normal even if it is sanctioned. Protect the vulnerable and encourage the afraid. If you are brave, stand up for others. If you cannot be brave — and it is often hard to be brave — be kind.” —Sarah Kendzior (@sarahkendzior)
Please listen, #charlotte and #meck county friends: the presidential election is in our hands. We turn out less than most of #NC, but if we turn out big, we turn NC to Harris & Walz. And if they win NC it's nearly impossible for the fascist to win in the Electoral College. Vote!!
I'm not buying Will Lewis' explanation for no presidential endorsement from @washingtonpost. And I'm no longer buying his paper, either. Democracy dies in darkness, indeed.
Anyone still on the fence — as impossible as that might seem — really should read this. It’s not just an endorsement, it’s unblinking analysis and judgment.
For only the second time in our 179-year history, the editors of Scientific American are endorsing a candidate for president. That person is @KamalaHarris. | Editorial https://t.co/dOsFW8BQCn
"I’m standing with her. Kamala Harris is the competent, just and fair leader our country deserves. This year too much is at stake to vote Republican at the top of the ticket. It will take Arizona Republicans, independents and Democrats standing together against a far-right agenda. Let us put country over party by voting to stop Trump and protect our democracy."
- Mesa, Arizona Mayor John Giles

This isn’t going to matter in the election. It’s just dumb. But I’m so freaking tired of the “Democrats are Communists” trope because if any major figures are flirting with “Communism”, it’s Republicans. I mean, just look at what Republicans have done in recent yrs…1/🧵

BREAKING: In a stunning admission, Donald Trump admits he will end non-discrimination protections for members of the LGBTQ+ community the first day he is elected. Retweet so all Americans hear about Trump’s sinister plans.
July 20th, 1969 is a date that stands high in my life – it was the day that we, together as one people, achieved the greatest scientific and technological feat in human history. The specific role that Neil, Mike and I performed in the event was but one part of an immeasurably larger effort – not just for our nation, but for all mankind. As I look back on what we accomplished 55 years ago, I am still inspired by what we all saw and did – the best of America and the best of humanity. Thank you for the privilege and the honor of serving you, and for being part of this exciting and wonderous journey with me. #Apollo11
