Crockett: You have a president who consistently is obsessing over two women of color that are members of the house, I don't know what black woman hurt him in his past, honey, but it is really taking him through it.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Today, I was denied access to seeing my constituent, Mr. Kilmar Abrego Garcia. If there is nothing to hide, cut the crap. Let his lawyer and I check on him.

THREAD. When my parents' cat Bridget went missing, my dad, to try to ease his worry, painted her on a variety of historical ventures. Soon, these numbered in the dozens.

After much nagging, my dad has had some postcards printed of this brilliant series: michaelcoxmoredaysthansausages.bigcartel.com

Basically, our lives are being ruined by a couple of buffoons who invented their own alter egos to give themselves credibility. Then the buffoons got together and had a baby, and named it "tariffs."

Someone is VERY concerned about tomorrow's voting.

If you're as concerned as I am about the direction DJT and his cohorts are taking your country (and its relationship with the world), and live in Wisconsin, Susan Crawford is your choice. If in FL-01 Gay Valimont, in FL-06 Joshua Weil. #Vote

I keep hearing the world “layoff” to describe the shedding of all these federal employees. Let’s call this what it is. Mass firings carried out without coordination or compassion targetting dedicated public servants who keep us safe, and secure. They deserve better. America deserves better.

It is really hard to watch people willfully tear down an infrastructure that allowed us to double lifespans, drastically reduce poverty, and become one of the richest countries in the world.

I'm sympathetic to people who "Don't want to hear about politics all the time" but unfortunately "politics" for the average person will probably get much less abstract in the near term. It's going to get harder to get through a day without going "Wait it's legal for them to do that?"
