.@POTUS' recognition of the Armenian Genocide comes after decades of struggle.
After years of Turkish threats and intimidation
After a murderous war on the people of Artsakh
After so many heartbreaks and disappointments
Thank you, President Biden, for speaking truth to power.
A big f—ing deal, to be precise. A great example of the point that language matters way more than law. This declaration had no legal significance. But its world historical impact was HUGE.

America has never been unable to meet a challenge if we put our minds to it.
I know we can tackle the threat of climate change while seizing the opportunities of a cleaner, stronger, and more resilient economy.
Let’s get to work.
Today we remember the 1.5+ million Armenians who were brutally murdered in the Armenian Genocide. We must honor their lives by combating denial of these heinous crimes and recognizing this brutality for what it was: genocide.

DC has a larger population than two states. Yet, its citizens do not have a vote in Congress. Today, the House passed H.R. 51 to end this injustice & bring DC residents one step closer to the representation they deserve. #DCStatehood
Caitlyn Jenner is an unqualified, selfish hack who cares only about protecting her wealth and that of her family. Her views on the issues are horrible. Let's hope that being rich and famous won't be enough this time.
It's time for DC statehood.
DC's 700,000+ residents, who pay more in federal taxes than 22 states, deserve full representation. This is about racial justice. It's about strengthening our democracy.
But at its core, DC statehood is about fairness. Plain and simple.
I voted YES.
A year after US Army Specialist Vanessa Guillén’s disappearance & murder, we remain heartbroken & outraged. Justice is needed for Vanessa & all servicemembers who face the epidemic of sexual violence in our armed forces. Congress won’t stop until we have #JusticeForVanessaGuillen
@tribelaw 18 US CODE 2383" Anyone who incites or aids an insurrection against the US shall be imprisoned AND SHALL BE INCAPABLE OF HOLDING OFFICE UNDER
THE US" (partial quote)
This would prevent Trump from ever running again. The DOJ must enforce this existing statute!
Releasing anyone credibly charged with being part of this criminally seditious and violently insurrectionist conspiracy is, pardon the expression, meshugena and, not to put too fine a point on it, totally fucked up. This is what pretrial detention is for

An open letter to @POTUS:
This week, the world will mark the 106th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide.
This is the first April 24 of your presidency, your first chance to keep your promise to hundreds of thousands of Armenian Americans:
Recognize the Armenian Genocide.
So grim. Here’s #TuckerCarlson basically celebrating the homophobic murder of San Francisco Board of Supervisors official #HarveyMilk just for being gay and proud of it back in the day. Poor Harvey is dead, while evil Tucker is still spewing hate and fomenting hateful violence.
