. I love America, imperfections and all. In 2024, I’m a single-issue voter: for Trump to lose. Vote! 🇺🇸🇳🇮
If you’re against abortion, don’t get one.
If you’re against contraception, don’t take any.
If you’re against same-sex relationships, don’t have one.
If you’re against same-sex marriage, don’t marry someone of same gender.
Do not impose your beliefs & religion on all Americans.
Matt Lauer lost his job.
Charlie Rose lost his job.
Mark Halperin lost his job.
Glenn Thrush lost his job.
Billy Bush lost his job.
Harvey Weinstein lost his job.
Kevin Spacey lost his job.
But in politics...
Conyers still in Congress.
Moore still running.
Trump still President.
I criticized and disagreed with Obama plenty. But watching this eulogy...damn, I miss him. I miss a President who can show emotion and lift our spirits, call to our better angels and remind us of what unites us as Americans. I miss a President who speaks in complete sentences.
If Trump doesn’t want to participate in debate, fine.
Give
@JoeBiden
the whole damn 90 minutes of prime time and let him answer voters’ questions...without interruption, for a change.
Regardless of who you support, there’s three women, two African-Americans, one Asian, one Latino, an openly gay veteran, a child of Indian and Jamaican immigrants, a Jewish guy, a vegan, and even a couple of straight, white guys on that stage.
Like it or not, this is America. 🇺🇸
Today, I saw a video clip of
@PeteButtigieg
playing classical piano. Another were he speaks in Spanish. And this one, were he tells Parisians, he shares their pain -in French. Just imagine having a President whose intellect exceeds that of a root vegetable...for a change.
Trump won’t be removed by spineless Republicans in Senate.
It’s also true that he has been impeached.
It’ll be in his obituary and history books.
Future generations of Americans will read about the unfit, unethical, criminal 45th President.
It is his shameful lasting legacy.
My friend Lisa Quiroz died from pancreatic cancer. She gave me earrings she wore at her wedding. She said, “I know I won’t be at ur wedding. Please wear these so a little part of me is w/u”. I’m wearing them down the aisle on Sat. Wore today b/c I need to get the tears out now.💔
Folks, I respect the Queen as much as the next person. I offer my condolences to the Brits and all who loved her. But can I please get some news and footage of the effects of Fiona in Puerto Rico? For those who need reminding, they are American citizens in distress. 🇵🇷
Your teeth are fake.
Your skin-color’s fake.
Your annual physical’s fake.
Your bone-spurs are fake.
Your taxes are fake.
Your Time Magazine covers are fake.
Your charity’s fake.
Your university’s fake.
Your hair looks like a big bowl of Chinese, “Bird’s Nest Soup.”
Take a seat.
I don’t care so much what former Presidents & First Ladies do. I don’t care George W paints cats. I don’t care Hillary signs books at Costco. I don’t care Michelle & Barack rock-out to Beyoncé & Jay Z. Good for them. I do care our current President is destroying American values.
We’re getting married today!
I’m in no-politics zone. If something big happens, pls send messenger pigeon.
Excited. Nervous. Humbled by the love & support and friends who’ve traveled far & wide to be here. Worried I won’t be able to breath in the dress.😳
#NavarroCardenasAtLast
I had forgotten what a US President capable of showing respect and empathy, while articulating human emotion in complete sentences and coherent thoughts sounds like.
Thanks for the reminder,
@BarackObama
. 🇺🇸
Former Pres. Barack Obama at Elijah Cummings' funeral: "I tell my daughters...being a strong man includes being kind. That there's nothing weak about kindness and compassion. There's nothing weak about looking out for others."
Oh my God. 93 year-old George HW Bush, in a wheelchair, in front of Mrs. Bush’s casket, thanking every mourner who comes to pay respects to his love and life partner of 75 years -what an example of respect, stoicism and devotion. Please just pass me the Kleenex. The entire box.
One of the most special moments for a daughter, especially a "daddy's girl" like me, is having her dad walk her down the aisle. I'm blessed to have my dad around and was able to experience that last night. Yes, we walked down the aisle to "Guantanamera".
#NavarroCardenasAtLast
Dear Trumpublicans, if you’re planning on going Ninja Warrior on Robert Mueller, remember, Mueller served our country. He was awarded a Bronze Star, a Purple Heart, a Navy Commendation Medal.
You are serving a man who dodged the draft and was awarded bankruptcies.
Sleep well.
To those hating on Malia Obama for sharing a bottle of rosé, in FL this weekend, just shy of being 21:
-Guy on SCOTUS drank himself into oblivion in high school;
-Guy in White House goes to FL most weekends, on taxpayer $;
-Malia’s a private citizen w/good taste in wine. So what?
As anyone who worked for him will confirm, I was very critical of Obama. I never got threats I get now. So, yes, I hold Trump responsible for promoting, legitimizing, normalizing, and empowering hate & division. He's the conductor of this orchestra. Until he stops, it won't stop.
Some who defend baker’s right to refuse service to gay couples, whine re ppl refusing service to a person who’s the face of a deceitful Administration. What’s good for the goose, is good for the Red Hen. Difference is, being gay is not a choice. Being an accomplice to Trump, is.
I am loving
@KamalaHarris
tonight.
I so want to see her debating Trump.
She is everything he is not:
Empathetic.
Smart as hell.
Lawful.
Knowledgeable.
Eloquent.
Unifying.
Composed.
Adult.
Sane.
Not racist.
Not misogynist.
Not “pendejo”.
Disagree with him all you want. Support him or don’t. But after 4 years of Trump rallies, watching this
@JoeBiden
townhall feels like chicken soup for the soul. The man is decent, authentic and gives a damn about other humans. How refreshing.
If after watching this half-time show, you’re against immigration and think Latinos are invaders......go to boring, rhythm-less hell. Really.
Hispanics are Americans and Make America Great.
Deal with it! 🔥 🇺🇸
5 Jewish people celebrating Hanukkah were stabbed.
An Iowa woman ran over a girl b/c she “looked Mexican”.
A man hunted Hispanics in a Texas Walmart.
Trans women of color are assaulted or killed weekly.
We must denounce division, racism, discrimination every time we see it.
13 Americans died b/c of hate crimes last week. I can’t rationalize voting for anyone embracing Trump as he continues to divide Americans & peddle bigotry. For 1st time, I won’t be voting for a Republican for Governor. I'm voting for
@AndrewGillum
I don’t give a damn what Trump says in a scripted speech. He’s already shown us who he is. He’s demonized immigrants, stoked fear, peddled racism his whole presidency and before that. Latinos were hunted down like vermin. Trump has contributed to this climate. Vote him OUT, coño!
If you’re an American, if you’re a Republican, and you’re not disgusted by Trump’s undermining of US Intellegence Agencies, his dismissal of Russia’s cyber-terrorism against our democratic institutions, and his deference to the murderous Russian leader, YOU ARE A CULT MEMBER.
Flight Attendant to me right now: Girl, please. It was about time for Nancy to act. Republicans impeached Bill Clinton for lying about a blow-job. Now, they’re offended Democrats doing an impeachment inquiry over abuse of power. They got no damn shame.
I ❤️ flight attendants.✈️
Trump got a bigger crowd to protest him on foreign soil, than the one he got to attend his inauguration in America.
Oh, and he got a giant Trump is a Baby balloon too.
18 days after we lost my mom -his wife of 60 years- and 11 days after he got COVID, my dad was able to travel. I was finally able to hug my daddy. Best New Year’s Day gift ever. I never want to let go. ❤️😭❤️
Honest Republicans know, if Hillary Clinton or any Democrat POTUS had done half of what Trump & his minions did w/Russia, Republican Congress would be moving to impeach. But b/c Trump’s a member of GOP tribe, it’s a different standard. It should not be. Country over Party.🇺🇸
I lobbed my share of criticism at Obama. But yeah. I miss a President capable of articulating coherent thoughts in complete and grammatically-correct sentences.
At the market today, I saw 2 buyers screaming at employees. It’s not the stock-boy’s fault there’s no toilet paper. They’re showing up to minimum-wage jobs, putting themselves at risk, to help the rest of us. Behave like civilized humans, damn it, or stay home & order online.
I’m celebrating for the kids at the border.
For the women he harassed.
The Mexicans he called “criminals and rapists”.
I’m celebrating Black & Brown votes mattered.
I’m celebrating the 1st woman -Black, child of immigrants- VP.
I’m celebrating decency.
I’m celebrating America! 🇺🇸
You know why right wing conspiracists are attacking these kids?
Because they are E-F-F-E-C-T-I-V-E.
Not political hacks. Not paid shills. Not indoctrinated. Not character actors.
They are young people of character compelled into action by a horrible crime that cost 17 lives.
While Trump & supporters at rally yesterday, reacted by laughing when someone shouted about shooting immigrants at the border, this Hispanic boy lay dead after losing his life trying to save others from a shooter.
Did anyone say his name?
He is Kendrick Castillo, American hero.
This photo was snapped at The White House, yesterday. Whether you voted for them or against them, the achievement and historical significance of the first Black President and first Black woman VP, should not be taken lightly.
Is it so hard to elect a President who:
- is not a pathological liar
- is not a serial sexual assaulter
- is not a racist
- is mentally stable
- is not a schoolyard bully with a smartphone
- reads, writes and speaks at a level higher than 1st grade
- AND is not owned by the NRA?
I turned 47 today. I’m thankful I live in a country where I can call
#PresidemtLoco
a “misogynist, racist, lying man-baby” &.not be chopped into pieces. I’m thankful i’m healthy, my parents are alive & I have people I love & love me back in my life. And I’m thankful for hair dye.
Herman Caín thought Covid was a hoax, scoffed at wearing a mask. Died of Covid.
Bill Montgomery, co-founder of pro-Trump, Turning Point USA, scoffed at virus. Died of Covid.
Rep. Gohmert refused to wear a mask. Has Covid.
See a pattern?
Covid doesn’t care about partisanship.
Young, healthy Senator, who spoke at rallies packed w/thousands w/o masks, who supports Trump -who’s down-played COVID & mocked those who wear masks, is 1st to get vaccine while most medical workers, elderly & infirm Americans, wait.
Congratulations on ur privilege,
@marcorubio

I’ve stopped watching Trump’s press conferences. I prefer to organize sock-drawers and wait for second-hand accounts of his inaccuracies and down-right lies and his crappy treatment of journalists doing their job. I avoid hearing his voice. Makes me feel better.
Trump called Don Lemon, LeBron James and Maxine Waters, "dumb". One is from the South. One is from Cleveland. One is from LA. One is in the NBA. One is on TV. One is in Congress. Hmmmm... I wonder what they could possibly have in common? Oh, wait...🖐🏾
Republican Senators, you chose to acquit a petty, vindictive, unstable, corrupt fake-leader. Please spare us your meaningless responses about how “troubled” or “disturbed” you are.
A man with shrapnel in his body just got escorted out like a common thief. You own this.
I commend you for quickly introducing legislation to avoid same horrible tragedy, after a dog died on an airline. I hope it passes.
It would be nice if you and your colleagues would pass legislation to avoid same horrible tragedy after 17 kids and faculty were killed at a school.
I will be filing a bill tomorrow that will prohibit airlines from putting animals in overhead bins. Violators will face significant fines. Pets are family.
Re
@KamalaHarris
, some say this country wont elect a black woman President.
We already elected a black man.
A woman already won 3M more popular votes.
I’d vote for a qualified black woman over an orange-hued racist any day of the week, including 1st Tuesday in November, 2020.
I don’t get why some folks are upset about the women dressed in white. I’d think Trump is quite used to looking out into his rally audiences and seeing a sea of white staring back at him. 🤷🏻♀️
Whether your last name is Burr or Loeffler, and are an R or D, if your immediate reaction upon learning of an impending pandemic, is to take advantage of your privilege to put yourself in a better position than other Americans, you’re no public servant. You’re self-serving jerk.
Trump can speak out against:
* The Squad
* CNN
* Elijah Cummins
* Don Lemon
* Bette Midler
* Mueller
* Schiff
* Paul Ryan
* John McCain
* climate change
* Mayor of London
* athletes who take a knee
* Baltimore
Trump cannot speak against: white supremacist domestic terrorism
Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Obama did not exacerbate racism. Racists got triggered, enraged & driven bat-shit crazy when they saw a black President and his black family living in the White House and appointing so many people of diverse backgrounds to lead the country and the courts.
Trump lost popular vote by +7MM.
Trump lost Electoral College 232 to 306.
Trump lost every single recount.
Trump lost +/- 50 court challenges.
Trump lost in Supreme Court.
Trump, enabled by Republicans who’ve lost their dignity, has gained +$200MM in donations.
It’s a damn scam.
I don’t know how anyone who descends from immigrants,
I don’t know how anyone who claims to be Christian,
I don’t know how anyone who claims to be pro-Life,
I don’t know how anyone who is a parent,
I don’t know how anyone with a heart,
Can defend denying soap & blankets to kids.
The White House communications official who mocked “dying” McCain during a meeting, is
@kellysadler45
. Our taxes pay her damn salary.
Oh, one more thing. Kindly, don’t ever talk to me again about the cruelty of a “smoky-eye” joke.
Like most, I’d never heard of
@AOC
.
Then, she beat Crowley & Right Wing obsessed over her. They picked on her clothes, teeth, humble origins and college dancing. She rose. They pounced on any small mis-step & called her “little girl”. She rose.
Today,
@AOC
reached 2M followers.
Actually, yes.
In 2012, Obama ran against a good, decent man. They differed on policy.
Joe Biden ran against the human aberration, corrupt windbag, that is your father.
People flocked to the polls to save America and save democracy from your progenitor and his crooked spawn.
I’m outraged by Biden scandals. Outraged, I tell you.
First, it was the Peloton.
Then, it was not wearing a mask while standing outdoors, on federal property, within 10 ft of the nearest person...never mind it was a marble statue.
Then, it was wearing a Rolex.
How dare he!
Thank you,
@PeteButtigieg
.
You made history.
You set an example of courage and honesty.
You inspired many of us, particularly the LGBTQ community & their allies.
You taught us to pronounce “Buttigieg”.
And you did it all with such grace.
Looking forward to your next chapter.
Have no respect for all these Republicans finally speaking out against Trump & crying over the Kurds.
For 3 yrs u defended the indefensible, justified the unjustifiable. Or u played dumb, stayed in complicit silence. U enabled & empowered him. Spare us the new-found outrage.
During Mueller, some R’s said, there was no collusion with Russia, b/c Trump too incompetent to be capable of it.
Now, some R’s say, there was no quid pro quo b/c Trump too incoherent to be capable of it.
Pretty damn pathetic when ur best defense is incompetence & incoherence.
You’ll never have Romney’s class.
You’ll never have Romney’s patriotism.
You’ll never have Romney’s integrity.
You’ll never have Romney’s long, happy marriage, or self-made kids who lead full lives, not profiteering from their dad’s position.
You’ll never have Romney’s hair.
Mitt Romney never knew how to win. He is a pompous “ass” who has been fighting me from the beginning, except when he begged me for my endorsement for his Senate run (I gave it to him), and when he begged me to be Secretary of State (I didn’t give it to him). He is so bad for R’s!
Nixon: “I am not a crook”
Clinton: “I did not have sex with that woman, Ms. Lewinsky.”
Trump: “I never worked for Russia”.
America: 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏿♂️🤦♀️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏽♂️
I spoke to
@JoeBiden
yesterday. We talked many issues...Trump pitting Latinos vs A-A’s, Trump’s hypocrisy on Cuba/Venezuela. I told him my family’s had a hard time w/Covid. What a decent, empathetic, humble leader he is.
I’m voting for him, even if he picks a cactus as VP.🇺🇸

@Emma4Change
tore up a shooting target, not Constitution. She wore badge of Cuban flag b/c her dad is from there, not b/c she’s a communist sympathizer

@davidhogg111
’s not a crisis actor, didn’t do Nazi salute, was in school hiding in closet during shooting.
Stop the damn lies
I can’t erase from my mind the images of Carlos Hernandez Vasquez twitching and dying. In America, kids are sleeping on cement slabs, covered in foil blankets, denied medical care and compassion. To all those bible-quoting, Trump-defending “Christians” out there...God is watching
