A true hero has taken his final flight. ✈️ Lt. Col. Harry Stewart Jr., one of the last surviving Tuskegee Airman, has passed at 100. He broke barriers and defended a country that denied him equality when he returned home. His legacy soars on. Rest in Power, Lt. Col. Stewart.
You can't erase our history. It's not just Black history it's also American history. My Great-uncle was Captain Albert Whiteside Jr an original Tuskegee Airmen. When I was a child I got to talk to him in person. People should learn about the Tuskegee Airmen.
We, the daughters and sons of Tuskegee Airmen will continue to teach their important role in our collective history. Trump's "order" is racist trash. 🗑️
My grandfather was one of the original five Tuskegee airmen, Charles DeBow, and my youngest son is named after his co-pilot. They fought for equal rights and for all of America in WWII when many worked to undermine their efforts. To erase their legacy is beyond unconscionable.
President Carter taught all of us what it means to live a life of grace, dignity, justice, and service. Michelle and I send our thoughts and prayers to the Carter family, and everyone who loved and learned from this remarkable man. https://t.co/dZHL0Nu0Tj
LIKE IT OR NOT: The stock market’s hitting record highs, inflation is cooling, food prices are dropping, gas is more affordable, crime is trending down, and prescription drug costs are finally seeing cuts.
All of this didn’t just happen by accident—it’s a direct result of the Biden-Harris administration’s policies.
Facts over feelings.
Navarro: Bill Clinton had two AG nominees who had to withdraw because they had employed illegal nannies. Matt Gaetz is accused of sleeping with a girl who's almost young enough to need a nanny
Former @FBI assistant director of counterintelligence @FrankFigliuzzi1 just came up with a critically important, urgent, inspired and genius idea.
@POTUS@JoeBiden should *order* FBI background checks of Trump’s Cabinet picks immediately.👇🏼

A repost from one year ago, but one worth reposting. :) Vocabulary knowledge is 1 of the largest contributors to reading comprehension. According to Stahl & Nagy(2006), vocabulary knowledge contributes 50-60% of the variance in reading comprehension. A consistent vocabulary instructional routine is a powerful tool every teacher needs in their tool box!

Thank you for spreading the word about my PRESS Act on @LastWeekTonight, @iamjohnoliver! You're right—it would protect the confidentiality of journalists' sources and fortify press freedom. The House passed it unanimously—Senate, you're up!
BREAKING: Republican Senator John Cornyn just announced that he would like the House Ethics Committee to release the findings of the Matt Gaetz investigation. It sure looks like Republicans are going to sink one of Trump’s first nominees.
Tim and I could not be more grateful for the support you all have shown us over the past few months.
Let's take everything we are feeling — our fear, our fatigue, our frustration — and use it as our fuel. Now more than ever, we cannot and will not give up this fight.
BREAKING: House Minority Leader issues a bold call to action and urges Senate Republicans to do their "job" and act as a check on the incoming Trump administration.
He didn't hesitate to shame them...
"The Senate has a job. They should focus — meaning the Senate Republicans — on being a separate and co-equal branch of government and serving as a check and balance on a particularly out-of-control, when it emerges, administration," Jeffries said at a press briefing in the Capitol. "That’s their job."
"Advice and consent should mean something,” he went on. "It certainly doesn’t mean rolling over and giving any administration — Democratic or Republican — what they want."
Jeffries, never one to shy away from taking on Republicans head on, made these new remarks as controversy swirls around Trump's disastrous nominations for key Cabinet positions.
If these Republicans have even an ounce of shame left in them, they'll block the nomination of accused child sex trafficker Matt Gaetz to be Attorney General.
