On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️🌈

Straight up. It starts right here…
Guys, it's the oligarchs. If you want to blame someone for 2024, blame the oligarchs. Anyone telling you to blame someone else is part of the oligarchy. Dark money has been to blame since citizens united.

Both of mine were..& the 3 of us still have Medicaid.
My parents were middle class/lower middle class when I was growing up. Both came from poverty…poor white Appalachia. They worked hard & did ‘the things you were supposed to do’ & made their way to middle class. 🧵

Republicans want women pregnant but don't care about their coverage! 41% of ALL births care covered by Medicaid.
Republicans want women pregnant with no access to maternity care.

I put a hold on Ed Martin’s nomination.
He’s denied elections. Fired quality public servants. Attempted to chill free speech.
Turns out he’s also carrying water for the Kremlin.
So wholly unfit to be a U.S. Attorney.
