After a year that has tested us in unimaginable ways, we've seen how people from all walks of life have stepped up to create change to make things better. Here's to ringing in 2021 with optimism for what's to come and a belief that our best days are still ahead. Happy New Year!
The full U.S. Congress delivered a resounding rebuke to President Trump’s reckless assault on America’s military & national security by overriding his senseless veto of the National Defense Authorization Act.
In three weeks, our country will inaugurate a President who respects our military, protects our security and honors the will of the Congress. Until then, the Congress urges Trump to end his desperate and dangerous sabotage. https://t.co/FRJfI0O7uW
I can use another $1,400. However, I am not willing to tell Black soldiers they have to live with Confederate bases and go without pay raises so I can get another $1,400. https://t.co/xL3HNAw8hK
Any Member of Congress who attended the mostly mask-less Mar-a-Lago New Year’s party shouldn’t be allowed to go in person to the joint session on January 6th. Below are photos of Rep Gaetz and Senator Rand Paul at the party with no masks on. pic.twitter.com/Qw6BWSuxiB
thx Sheila.
Am asking if the people who live here on were Earth consulted in any way? (no)
Do we want the site of a potential Star Wars incident up above us and beyond our control? (no)
Humans have never done anything bigger, more expensive, or less predictable.

"Speaking for the Negro, I can say, we owe much to Walker for his appeal; to John Brown for the blow struck at Harper's Ferry…but we owe incomparably more to Haiti than to them all. I regard her as the original pioneer emancipator of the nineteenth century."
As an addendum, read this great piece by @JuliaGaffield: "From the first day of its existence, Haiti banned slavery. It was the first country to do so. The next year, Haiti published its first constitution. Article 2 stated: “Slavery is forever abolished.” https://t.co/mK3bFfZ8lD
f you know Haiti, then there must of been some rich MFing slaves that took control of the country, moved to the top (in the mountains), let the poor live down below without proper sanitation, shelter, hunger, and poverty.
If we “move on”, the GOP will refuse to concede future elections, then judge-shop until they steal one. There must be a price paid for sedition or we will lose our democracy. This is critically important work in the next couple of years.
Yes must investigate all attempts to overthrow the U.S. Government.
That’s a lot of people…including trump. And the Seditionists should NOT be seated.
We’re setting the stage for our own demise if we do.
He blocked it because he can..it is an exercise of POWER….in defiance of a President…in defiance of Congress..in defiance of the American People…an example of how absolute Power corrupts absolutely
The man who has lately voiced support for some of President Trump’s signature tariffs built his career as an unapologetic, free-trading practitioner of the outsourcing arts. As a top executive at companies including Reebok, Sara Lee and Dollar General, he was often deeply involved in the shift of manufacturing, and jobs, to low-wage factories in China and other Asian countries.
A review of that business record shows a man who achieved significant successes, making millions, managing complex periods of corporate growth and change and creating domestic jobs, particularly at Dollar General. But there were also disappointments, like the failed trucking business he ran with Sonny Perdue and his fruitless effort to rescue a company called Pillowtex that brought heartbreak to a North Carolina mill town. And while the senator often speaks of having led “the Reebok turnaround” as president of the company’s flagship brand in the early 2000s, he moved on from the company after a rival, who today questions Mr. Perdue’s contribution to the turnaround, was installed above him.
Hello, EVERYbody! Doesn’t it just feel terrific to have left 2020 behind? Spirits are uplifted and eyes have been mostly turned forward. I can’t wait to see what’s in store!
It's obvious that #CashFlowOverCountry will forever be @jack's legacy. @Twitter is now the go-to venue for those calling for criminal, violent violations of the Constitution – executions & sedition.
The next 19 Days will test America like no other time.
Desperate #Strongman in the #OvalOffice, 70+ Million #Trumpians (many armed & well trained), seditious Senators & House Members & a compromised FBI & DOJ.

Reuters: U.S. LAWMAKER GOHMERT'S LAWSUIT AGAINST VICE PRESIDENT PENCE TO OVERTURN THE ELECTION RESULTS HAS BEEN DISMISSED BY U.S. JUDGE, CITING NO STANDING -COURT FILING

I agree. But I also feel like people like you should have seen this coming. I mean, aren’t we basically at the endgame of the GOP strategy since FDR? The politics of fear have been very good to you. Until now.
They are Republicans and they are leading your party. Then there are the 140, or so, that pledge to not accept the EC vote. What to call them ? Republicans. You raised them, you own them.
On this 157th Anniversary of the #EmancipationProclamation Patriotic Americans are threatened by a demagogue & a cult the likes of which we have never encountered.

There’s this thing pundits say about Hawley: He’s smart enough to know this is wrong cuz he’s Yale Law. EVERYONE is smart enough. Point is he’s despicable enough.
In 1861 Congress expelled 11 Senators & 3 Reps for failing to recognize Lincoln’s win
Can we summon the courage that our forefathers had? 140 House Republicans refuse to acknowledge Biden’s win (and thus their own, too). Do not seat them
The people who belittle Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for being a former waitress are the same faulting Janet Yellen for earning $7.2 million. So, how much exactly should women make?
No ICU beds at hospitals in LA. National Guard had to be called in to help deal with hundreds of dead bodies. Ambulances have nowhere to offload 911 patients.

“We need to be listening for the voice of God, rather than being distracted by the noise of men. … And let’s let our 2021 be a year of trumpets and shouting."
Just don’t go to the hospital if you become ill with covid and be distracted by the noise of ventilators, IV alarms, endotracheal suction devices. Stay home and listen to your voice of God.

This man did not show up on the floor of the Senate one time this week to demand a vote on a $2k direct payment. Not a single damn time. Now, the Congress has ended and it looks like the first time a bill can be introduced is 20 days from now. Thanks for a whole lot of nothing. https://t.co/i5pWie5VoD
In 1825, France, with warships at the ready, demanded Haiti compensate France for its loss of slaves and its slave colony. They were forced to pay a modern equivalent of $21 Billion. It took until 1947 for Haiti to finally pay off all the debt.https://t.co/eTII0R24tB

Donald Trump is the most poisonous populist to come along in the last 150 years. Who would have guessed this stupid showman-cum-huckster could do so much damage?
Every one of these members of Congress who plan to object to the results of the presidential election have one thing in common: They all represent gerrymandered seats that ensures that they cannot lose a general election.
End gerrymandering and you end 99% of this nonsense.
PA Republicans want to change the state constitution in order to gerrymander the state judiciary…changing statewide elections for Judges, to district wide…like #FairDistricts say… Judges are not politicians…They should remain an independent ✔️

America must hear only one sound from Democrats beginning 3Jan2021 – the sound of one 'can' after another being SQUASHED as Trump & his seditious cult are relentlessly held accountable.
Subject: US Constitution, Article 1, Section 5 @ChristopherHahn is correct. No one elected to the #117 Congress who rejects the election outcome from their State should be seated. https://t.co/zG0QMXW21m
This is not a matter of censure, as you well know.
As we close out 2020 — an historic year marked by calls for change and equity — we honor with full hearts the memory of Rep. John Lewis, the Rev. C.T. Vivian and the Rev. Joseph Lowery.

Over the past few years, I have had the opportunity to work alongside my colleagues from both sides of the aisle to successfully repeal the Military Widow’s Tax, permanently renew funding for HBCUs, be a voice for our workers, fight for health care and more.
