Chuck Todd's incessant normalization of the political right is infuriating. By extension, it normalizes conspiracies, hate speech, and false narratives.
"Everybody knew Kari Lake was a nut before she ran... Glenn Youngkin, Doug Ducey, they all endorsed her... The Republican Party has lost any sense of why it is a political party other than acquiring power." - LP senior advisor @StuartPStevens on @TheLastWord
@MittRomney What you fail to note is that if, instead of obstructing, republicans were willing to help solve these problems it wouldn’t come down to a single senator. Why do republicans get a pass on addressing gun safety, infrastructure, marriage equality and voting rights?
All my life I’ve tried to use music to bring people together. Yet it saddens me to see how misinformation is now being used to divide our world.
I’ve decided to no longer use Twitter, given their recent change in policy which will allow misinformation to flourish unchecked.
MAGA Conservatives are LIVID Congress has passed the Respect for Marriage Act. Can you RT and use the hashtag #EqualityWinsOverHate so we can RUIN their day?

@realTuckFrumper Dear @WhipClyburn, please reconsider any inclination to help McCarthy. He’s a puppet of MT and DJT. You help him, you’re in essence making Trump the Speaker of the House.
@RonFilipkowski .@LeaderMcConnell and @GOPLeader are so used to being 2-faced liars and hypocrites they can’t believe everyone doesn’t act the same. The officers and family members refused to be hypocrites. Good on them.
@washingtonpost For the Christians out there. How is any of this “kind”, consistent with God’s teachings, or a belief that God created all of us? Do you believe God makes mistakes and that you have the right to shun those, you deem to be, one of God’s mistakes
