6/8 I will reference @BJContheHill’s groundbreaking report (co-published with @FFRF) on #ChristianNationalism & #January6. Thank you @AndrewLSeidel, @JemarTisby, @AntheaButler, @profsamperry, @ndrewwhitehead, @kathsstewart, & for your contributions to it. https://t.co/tHxDyN2FP2

I testified before Congress this morning that “#ChristianNationalism often overlaps with and provides cover for white supremacy and racial subjugation.”

Thank you @RepRaskin for the chance to highlight the work of Christians Against Christian Nationalism.

If an 80 yo with emphysema is hit by a truck do we argue about the cause of death? Because that’s precisely what happens when that same patient contracts COVID and dies.

[Dr. Alika Lafontaine MD @AlikaMD]

What will it take for governments to act on the pediatric respiratory crisis unfolding across Canada right now?

The impacts of the crisis must be in the line of sight of political leaders. Share your stories. Call your politicians.

Make sure none of them can look away.

Congratulations to Senator Brenda Gilmore on 30 years of public service, 50 years of marriage, and 70 years on earth. Senator Gilmore has always supported social justice initiatives. My colleague @PkDPhD discusses Senator Gilmore in her forthcoming book on Black women politics.

If you really wanted to protect those who protect us, you'd ensure they were vaccinated and protected from serious illness & death. All you do is pay lip service to anti-vaxxers with your rhetoric and make my job as an emergency physician harder. #VaccinesWork #GetVaccinated

Of course John Rose, TN groomer with a child bride. He met her when she was 14 (he was 44.) I guess he only cares about the rules for folks who aren’t on his team.

Another three Indigenous women murdered by a serial killer, & police indicate they aren't going to search for their remains in the Brady Landfill.

I'm asking the gov't to provide immediate funding to stop this genocide, & search for the remains of our precious sisters. #MMIWG2S

[Dom Kelly @the_tattooedjew]

As we all celebrate, reminder that we wouldn’t have Senator Warnock now or the last two years if it wasn’t for @staceyabrams and the Black women organizers in our state who continue to save this damn country time and again while facing rampant racism, ableism, and misogyny.

BREAKING: Fulton County, Georgia, the most populous county in GA, just released their early and mail-in ballot batch of votes and Warnock received more than 82% of the vote. That’s a bigger margin of the mail-in ballot/early vote than a few weeks ago for Warnock.

[Victor Shi @Victorshi2020]

Trump is an enemy of the U.S. Consitution. Not my words, but Liz Cheney's words. I'll go a step further: every Republican who doesn't fully condemn Trump is also an enemy of the U.S. Constitution. Full stop. And they're going to find it very hard to convince Gen Z-ers otherwise.

[uché blackstock, md @uche_blackstock]

Sobering new data from the last few years showing the U.S. maternal mortality rate continues to exceed that of other high-income countries.

This horrifyingly high rate is driven especially by the deaths of Black birthing people.

[Liz Cheney @Liz_Cheney]

Donald Trump believes we should terminate “all rules, regulations and articles, even those found in the Constitution” to overturn the 2020 election. That was his view on 1/6 and remains his view today. No honest person can now deny that Trump is an enemy of the Constitution.

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

A twice impeached former president who lost badly at the polls in 2020 has called for our Constitution & laws to be suspended 2 years later. I believer the proper term for this would be, a coup.

Where is the outrage? The condemnation from the party he is still the leader of?

[Rep. Gloria Johnson @VoteGloriaJ]

I filmed Inside TN last night with a GOP colleague who gave misinformation about what is happening at DCS, clearly he hasn’t read any of the great reporting by many of those in the press, or listened to the words of the new Commissioner. Fix this now, kids are being traumatized.
