Meet Sha’Carri Richardson, the Flo-Jo of Our Time. @voguemagazine, get your facts right. She's from Dallas not Houston! https://t.co/q7SCCD5xwQ

@sasha_author @NBCOlympics @usatf Why you hating on a beautiful black woman killing it on the track?

[Melissa Thrailkill @yallheard]

@tedcruz so this is how you get us to come together? You should resign now you sorry excuse for a senator and lawyer!

[Melissa Thrailkill @yallheard]

@tedcruz you have caused and spread hatred. A woman is dead now, and her death is on your hands.

[Melissa Thrailkill @yallheard]

@KenPaxtonTX stop blocking your constituents from voicing their displeasure with you. It's illegal! (Not that you care about legalities, you fraudster.)

[Melissa Thrailkill @yallheard]

@Johnson4Dallas It’s about time! Don’t slow down. Hire the right people and move that mountain! It’s a disgrace!

[Melissa Thrailkill @yallheard]

@Johnson4Dallas @Johnson4Dallas you can take action on scooters but do nothing about the legal toxic waste dump Shingle Mountain? You’re useless and obviously could care less about people living in south Dallas.

[Marsha Jackson @MarshaJ86024846]

The City Stands with me. Well moved the mountain now. The owners of the business and property need a Huge fine. AIT moved it in November why can't CCR. Stop waiting City of Dallas move it and go after the owners. You should have taken the property a long time ago.

[Robert Wilonsky @RobertWilonsky]

I first wrote about Shingle Mountain in Dec. 2018, long after Marsha Jackson began complaining to the city about the monstrosity behind her home. With activists' renewed attention on the enviro disaster in SE Dallas, the city just released this statement about the damned thing.

[Melissa Thrailkill @yallheard]

It's not that radical. #defundDPD

[Melissa Thrailkill @yallheard]

So, @DallasMayor Eric Johnson basically admits on national television that he was not listening during 8 hours of public comments literally spelling this out for him. #DefundThePolice #defundDPD

[Central Track @Central_Track]

In an interview with @CNN this morning, @DallasMayor Eric Johnson says he "doesn't know what people mean by 'defund' and [he] doesn't know what they mean by 'dismantle'" when they're chanting about police reform.

[Justin Amash @justinamash]

This week, I am introducing the Ending Qualified Immunity Act to eliminate qualified immunity and restore Americans’ ability to obtain relief when police officers violate their constitutionally secured rights.

TX Coastal friends, come to Dallas. We can have a dry and safe hurricane party. Seriously, please consider. #harvey

[Ari Melber @AriMelber]

Sessions tells room of reporters he may make it easier to jail them if they don't reveal sources, leaves without taking any press questions.

You are no hero @SenJohnMcCain https://t.co/bKu7iIiT9A

[Sen. Cory Booker @SenBooker]

This is a make or break moment. A moral moment. Any senator who votes YES on health care repeal does so knowing 22M+ Americans will be hurt.

[Melissa Thrailkill @yallheard]

@SenJohnMcCain How dare you act like you're a hero? You have voted to hurt millions of Americans. Many suffering the same illness as you. How dare you?

[Melissa Thrailkill @yallheard]

Days like today, you gotta go ahead & pull over & pig out in Wendy's parking lot, but dang if these fries and shake didn't help a little.

[Melissa Thrailkill @yallheard]

@JohnCornyn Nice try.The election is over.Take a stand.If this is about US vs Russia then stand up to #45 &a his refusal to acknowledge their bad acts.
