If we want to fight back against bills like this, we’ve got to organize state by state and block by block to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and the For the People Act. I hope you’ll join me. https://t.co/F8etafNsNu
California! You’ve got a big choice to make by September 14, and everything is on the line. Your vote could be the difference between protecting our kids or putting them at risk; helping Californians recover or taking us backwards. Vote “no” on the Republican recall.
It is not helpful to tell people of Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi, etc that they should move. First of all, most of you saying this have no space. Two — there is no where to go. This country is collapsing colonial project. This is it. Where you are is where you fight.
A year ago today, we lost Congressman John Lewis. As we celebrate the king of good trouble—his legacy of perseverance; his ability to find moments of joy and lightness in the midst of real struggle—we should also recommit ourselves to building the future he envisioned. pic.twitter.com/07nbvnBh9i
While today’s terrible display of terror and meanness shakes us, let’s remember: @ossoff, Jewish son of an immigrant & @ReverendWarnock, first Black Senator from Georgia, will join a Catholic POTUS & the first woman, Black + Indian VP in our nation’s capital. God bless America.
All I keep thinking about is how National Guard were deployed to guard the Miracle Mile from people stealing Gucci bags but protestors stormed the Senate chambers and there is nary a police in sight.
As a Congressperson, how do you walk back into the Capitol and resume work knowing that the police willingly let domestic terrorists into your workplace? Like…. moved the barricades out of the way and took selfies once they were inside?
I am hearing from fellow journalists who are being told not to use these words. Resists attempts to censor your language. Democracy depends on bearing witness & holding power to account.
“White Americans aren’t afraid of the cops. White Americans are never afraid of the cops, even when they’re committing an insurrection,” @JoyAnnReid says about the Trump supporters rioting the US Capitol. pic.twitter.com/dJ3soNlZhq
The way news outlets shielded us from viewing the horrific murder of a white woman committing a criminal act at the Capitol Building yesterday, is the dignity that I desire from the media when unarmed Black people are murdered by the police. Instead we get trauma porn.
Michelle Obama: "This isn't a game. So I want to urge all Americans, especially our nation's leaders, regardless of party, to honor the electoral process and do your part to encourage a smooth transition of power, just as sitting presidents have done throughout history." pic.twitter.com/YsNXsRMD27
Last night on #StickToSports, I explained why I won’t be turning the other cheek when it comes to some Trump supporters. Catch us Thursdays at 11:30p on @VICETV, or during replays throughout the week. pic.twitter.com/JbgXSiNFne
