Trump says he will round up millions of Latinos into mass detention camps as part of Project 2025 and then says it will be “larger” than a 1950s military-style operation called “Operation Wetback”

Sad news..it has been reported to me by a trusted source that Flint Councilman Eric Mays has passed away. I talked to him often & his leadership in Flint will truly be missed! He was truly a fighter for Flint #EricMays

Yo… @fly2ohare really is a 💩 airport to fly in or out of. The airport signs are hard to follow, traffic officers Yell and r rude and @TSA we’re laughing at what a screener found in someone’s luggage - waiting to see which officer was going to open it. 🤯. #notafunexperience

Rest in Power!

You learn very quickly that there is no handbook or rules to being First Lady. Technically, it’s not even an official position. And while there are spoken and unspoken expectations that provide some structure, the role is largely shaped by the passions and aspirations of the person holding it.

First Lady Rosalynn Carter understood that well.

Guided by her abiding faith and her commitment to service, Mrs. Carter used her platform in profoundly meaningful ways. Her groundbreaking work to combat the stigma faced by those struggling with their mental health brought light to so many suffering in silence. She advocated for better care for the elderly. She advanced women’s rights. And she remained a champion for those causes — and many others like building affordable housing for those in need and caring for our nation’s caregivers — in the more than four decades that followed.

When our family was in the White House, every so often, Rosalynn would join me for lunch, offering a few words of advice and always — always — a helping hand. She reminded me to make the role of First Lady my own, just like she did. I’ll always remain grateful for her support and her generosity.

Today, Barack and I join the world in celebrating the remarkable legacy of a First Lady, philanthropist, and advocate who dedicated her life to lifting up others. Her life is a reminder that no matter who we are, our legacies are best measured not in awards or accolades, but in the lives we touch. We send our thoughts and prayers to Jimmy and the entire Carter family during this difficult time.

GAVIN EMBRACE TAYLOR SWIFT: Gavin Newsom, the governor of California, has effectively dismantled Republicans by highlighting their dissatisfaction with Taylor Swift's encouragement for young people to register to vote.

He questions why Republicans would object to such a positive contribution to our democracy and suggests that their opposition exemplifies their own voter suppression efforts. This clip is strongly recommended for viewing. #WeAreBlue1 #wtpBLUE

WOW! I have multiple Delta AMEX cards and soon each will lose perks. Time to reevaluate who’s loyal to who… ✂️💳 Delta Sky Club changes: Airline to cut access to lounges, change SkyMiles #delta #skymiles https://t.co/PtI5M14tJL

It is my privilege to honor our history with a proclamation that August 30th will be known as Chairman Fred Hampton Day in the City of Chicago. Chairman Fred’s commitment to racial and economic equality was the driving force that fueled his every action.

@savsays Is he worried about COVID protocols returning or the ease and convenience of Mail-In Ballots?

Team Trump is furious at host IA Governor Kim Reynolds after Trump’s intro song last night started out with the lyrics, “One could end up going to prison.”

24 Black deaf students from Gallaudet University finally graduated after being denied their diplomas over 70 years ago! Although this is a reminder of the racial prejudice these students faced years ago, it’s beautiful to see them finally get the recognition they deserve!

🚨 BREAKING @LeaderMcConnell just told the press that @POTUS @JoeBiden called him this evening to check on him after his health scare earlier today.

Isn't it nice that we now have a president who has decency and empathy, even for his political opponents?

This is how is was before and how IT SHOULD BE. #charactermatters
