Stealing from the poor, giving to the rich, at a time when inequality is already at record levels.

Inequality is the thing that holds us back most — and this Republican bill exacerbates it. (Again) #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer

Susan Collins is what we get when we get rid of affirmative action before getting rid of systemic sexism. We get token women who are happy to hold themselves up as an example of what women can accomplish, even as they're throwing other women under the bus. See also: Amy Coney Barrett.
Susan Collins voted aye after a conversation with Thune. She said she is leaning against the bill on final passage, but passed up a chance to hold it hostage tonight.

Just want to take a moment to shout out the international reporters helping us get the real story out. When an 80-year-old veteran with a walker is hauled off with his hands zip-tied behind his back, and the media spins it as a “threatening breach” of a police barricade

Forgiving the January 6th rioters breeds a toxic culture of impunity. The collateral damage, like the tragic fallout in Minnesota, stems directly from fanatics feeling untouchable, unleashing brutal chaos without fear. #3E

“There weren’t any campaigns that had failed after they had achieved 3.5% participation during a peak event,” says Harvard political scientist Erica Chenoweth – a phenomenon she has called the “3.5% rule”.

I think it would be good to get some women in charge of the countries that have nuclear weapons. Women talk to each other. Women can be reasonable. Enough with the macho men and swinging dicks.

Indiana's governor fired all the elected members of Indiana University's Board of Trustees. Given a recent policy change, he'll be able to fill those seats with appointees. Which means he'll basically have unilateral control over IU decisions, including who gets hired, tenured, and fired.

No one experiencing the tragedy of a miscarriage should be arrested, much less abandoned in jail for 5 months with a $100k bond. But that’s exactly what happened to Mallori Patrice Strait in Texas. Women, particularly women of color, in this country are no longer allowed dignity even in extreme loss
