Studying the history of voting rights reveals a painful truth: voter suppression has always been about maintaining privilege. From post-Reconstruction disenfranchisement to modern gerrymandering, it's not a new tactic. It is a new guise. #ConstitutionalLaw #VotingRights

He does have expertise in fraud. Committing it, not investigating it, but isn’t that something? Actually, he’s not such an expert. He got caught.

I don’t see too many people talking about what an incredible accomplishment it was for MN officials and lawyers to get those affidavits and that motion written and filed and to get a Trump appointed judge to issue a TRO against the feds to stop them from destroying evidence - all in the same day.

Klobuchar: "Somehow 50,000 peaceful protesters in 10 below weather were able to march without any problems, and then the next day half a dozen ICE and CBP agents couldn't handle a guy with a cell phone taking video of them and shot him. I think it's pretty obvious what's going on here."

The Pretti family’s heartbreaking request to all of us: get the truth out about our son.
Alex was an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA whose last act was to protect the woman next to him. We will not let this Administration spread lies.

🌈Not supposed to talk about this, buuuut sometimes in our struggle about orientation, we cause just so much destruction in our families. Or even communities. Our internal angst turns into aggressive outbursts.

This platform welcomed and embraced me. I am trying to spread that spirit of inclusion.
Maybe I am naive, but I still want to champion and help from a position of love and compassion, rather than from a negative place.
I am so, so grateful to be here.

Maybe I started getting political as a kid when I asked a lot of questions.
And the answer was always: "You have oppositional defiance disorder and go take your Ritalin."
