Charlie Kirk was a person. He might not have cared if I died, but if I don’t care that he died then I’ve already lost.
I believe in the dignity of all human beings and I want to live in a society that treats each of us as sacred and ensouled.

Throughout the night, Republicans have all waffled and given in to Trump’s orders. They are falling in line to rob working families of a free, thriving, healthy, prosperous future.
But, I don't work for wanna-be-kings or billionaire donors. I am still at the Capitol to #KillTheBill!

Last night a bunch of Republicans in the House were saying how awful this bill was.
Only took a couple hours, some merch, and a few words from Donald Trump, and they’re lining up to rip away health care from 17 MILLION people.
I’m sadly not surprised — but I am still outraged.

A month ago, experts in medicine and public health from Yale and UPenn estimated that the Big Ugly Bill would kill more than 51,000 people per year
And that was BEFORE the Senate made it worse

Growing up in Arizona we had sheriff Joe, a man ahead of his time who made a concentration camp in the desert that cooked people alive. It lasted for over 20 years. I feel like not enough people know about this. www.theguardian.com/cities/2017/...
Arizona's 'concentration camp': why was Tent City kept open for 24 years?
In 1993 Joe Arpaio, America’s ‘toughest sheriff’, opened a temporary outdoor jail in Phoenix. After more than two decades, the notorious project is finally closing

I will be forcing vote to strike Republican proposal to help Alaska by delaying major SNAP cuts only for states with HIGH error rates (AK, DC, FL, GA, MD, MA, NJ, NM, NY, OR). If they keep it high for another year, they get another yr of delay. Insanity reigns. Rewarding errors.

Whenever I see stuff like this, I remember the Infrastructure Act and how Biden disproportionately invested in red states and when asked why, he said “Because they need it the most.” So no, don’t forget what Biden did. He governed for everyone, even the ones who’d never thank him

Military parades are about honoring those who have served, not praising a president who only thinks about himself.
Donald Trump doesn’t deserve a parade, but let me tell you about the kind of person who does.
