George Floyd was murdered by police five years ago today.

The Say Their Names cemetery in Minneapolis features memorials for Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Amadou Diallo, Oscar Grant, Korryn Gaines, Freddie Gray and far too many more Black people who died at the hands of police.

In 2019, RFK Jr visited Samoa to spread anti-vax lies, spurring a measles outbreak that led to the deaths of 83 people - mostly children.

We can’t let that tragedy repeat in Texas. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing measles. Let’s stop the spread.

This story is heartbreaking. 💔

It’s a direct result of vile anti-trans propaganda that the MAGA cult & the Republican Party have been spewing on a daily basis over the last 8 years.

Hate, lies and flat out ignorance from a repugnant administration have turned this country into a dangerous place.

Zelensky is a hero and a president to be proud of! A very brave man who is trying to save his country. 🇺🇦🇺🇦

Our FOTUS is a bully, an embarrassment and a coward who is trying to destroy our country.

See the difference?

Muthafuckas need to stop hiding behind workplace "merit" bullshyt. They don't want DEI because:

•Misogyny
•Xenophopia
•Ableism
•Racism
•Homophobia
•Transphobia
•Anti-Semitism

Simply put, they're assholes who can't accept that the world is not all about them.

In a stunning development (sarcastic), it turns out that the people best equipped for land management are....the people who have been doing it for generations. More than 7. Are we at 7 here yet after Mayflower? I'll be at Plymouth Rock later today, and I'll check. If anyone's around, let's meet!
