former journalist, I remain curious about the world. (Tweets are mine)

26 years ago tomorrow (10/6), Matthew Shepard was beaten and left for dead — tied to a fence in Wyoming. The only part of his face not covered in blood was two white lines running down his cheeks from where his tears ran dry. His death ignited a fight for equality. You don't have to be gay to be a supporter. You just have to be human.#bekind #missionaryofmercy

Remarkable to see Vance say economist don’t have wisdom or common sense. But a guy who doesn’t pay his bills and declares bankruptcy should be trusted.

[Rev. Benjamin Cremer @Brcremer]

When you demonize the immigrant, the poor, and the marginalized, I’m not interested in hearing about your religious beliefs.

You’ve already shown me what they are by how you’re treating the immigrant, the poor, and the marginalized.

From Sotomayor's Grants Pass dissent:

"Sleep is a biological necessity, not a crime. For some people, sleeping outside is their only option. The City of Grants Pass jails and fines those people for sleeping anywhere in public at any time, including in their cars, if they use as little as a blanket to keep warm or a rolled-up shirt as a pillow. For people with no access to shelter, that punishes them for being homeless. That is unconscionable and unconstitutional."

A mayor taking $13,000 from a company he steered municipal contracts to: NOT A CRIME

Sleeping outside because you literally have no home: GO DIRECTLY TO JAIL

Our food supply is among the safest in the world BECAUSE of the FDA.

Airplane travel is the safest form of travel BECAUSE of the FAA.

Our water is drinkable BECAUSE of the EPA.

Trump's illegitimate SCOTUS just ended all that the same week they made bribes legal.

@GabeRamirez It’s a journalist’s job to get the truth. Allowing a candidate to lie without pointing it out is a failure.

[Heather Cox Richardson (TDPR) @HC_Richardson]

Republicans on the Senate Intelligence Committee established that Trump's people were negotiating with Putin to take the regions of Ukraine that he has now invaded.

[Sandra Hernandez @sandra_herz]

Trump’s statement on hostages is so revealing about human life is all transactional. His beef is having to pay billions when he could get people released for a fraction of that.

[Sandra Hernandez @sandra_herz]

According to Trump immigrants are taking every job. CEO’s better watch cuz even though Trump’s version sez they are coming from “mental institutions” they come with lots of skills. Fact check Trump.

[Sandra Hernandez @sandra_herz]

Lie after lie. Trump says he offered troops on Jan 6. Yet footage exists of Pelosi asking for help. Nothing. Trump sat there for three hours. Fact checking now.

[Sandra Hernandez @sandra_herz]

Trump claims he never called veterans losers. Said it was a lie except his former chief of staff chief of staff John Kelly confirmed it: https://t.co/1wHtDqCrjI

[Sandra Hernandez @sandra_herz]

Watching the debate. Trump badly needs to be fact checked. Undocumented immigrants are not eligible for social services such as Medicare but do pay into it.

3 months ago, I switched to @TMobile hoping 2 get better service. Since then, I've been told 2x that a promised rebate wasn't available/taking longer than anticipated. Just spoke w/a very nice rebate rep. Told me 2 keep waiting cuz it takes time. Is this all u got @TMobileHelp

[David J. Bier @David_J_Bier]

Katie Britt lied about this raped woman’s testimony and it was her very first example of how Biden’s America has become a nightmare. She was not raped in America. Now Britt is using her story to justify deporting women just like that one back to their traffickers! Disgusting

[Sandra Hernandez @sandra_herz]

@David_J_Bier Not to mention the “3rd world” institutions were sometimes undermined by foreign interest, including U.S. foreign policy. We now see the impact around much of Latin America and elsewhere. Migration is the consequence of myriad issues.

[Sandra Hernandez @sandra_herz]

Hey @Chasesupport - been 30 days since I've been trying to get the credit back from you. Each time I get a new excuse, including that all previous reps didn't provide right info. Today's excuse is they don't have access to status of refund cuz they can't access email system used.

[Sandra Hernandez @sandra_herz]

@ChaseSupport @Chase So @Chase, it seems you either have folks who are so poorly trained they don't know how to handle requests, including those made by bank branch managers, or you are holding on to money that isn't yours. Wonder how many other customers r subjected to this same scam.

[Sandra Hernandez @sandra_herz]

Hey @Chase @ChaseSupport what's up with the total lack of customer support. I have a credit on one of my credit cards that you guys refuse to put in my back account or give me the money that is credited to me. Now on week three of getting the run around. (1/3)

[Sandra Hernandez @sandra_herz]

@ChaseSupport @Chase @chasesuppport So now on week 3 of trying to get my credit refund from a bank that refuses. Chase support keeps reaching out to message them but then tells me to call an 800 number. And now I'm being told that previous bank reps didn't know how to process a refund. 1/2

A migrant woman rests at El Paso’s Annunciation House shelter after being entangled in razor wire at the #Texas border.

“Do we look at that & then say, ‘Thank you Jesus for helping protect us?’” asked Ruben Garcia of @AHouseElPaso. AH volunteer photo shared w/ permission.
