Using a matrix we devised in consultation w/ black policy analysts, political experts & scholars, we ranked each Democratic presidential candidate's plans for Black America.
You won't find a better analysis of the candidates' so-called "black agenda.”
calling them “pregnant people” doesn’t erase women. you can be a pregnant woman, you can be a pregnant person. inclusivity doesn’t erase. trans exclusionary feminism serves white patriarchy and fascism. full stop. so, make sure your feminism includes all women. it isn’t hard.
It took 90 women coming forward for two guilty convictions. 90. So next time you see a trash take like “hAs ThE MeToO mOvEmEnT gOnE TOO FAR?” remember that it has not even gotten started. Most of us never see justice or accountability of any kind.
Massive line of voters in Fairfax, Virginia, on the FIRST DAY of in-person early voting. Some voters say they showed up because they lost faith in USPS to deliver ballots. Officials tell CNN they've never seen anything like this on Day One.
Kevin McCarthy recently said “everyone” bears responsibility for the insurrection.
Retweet if you think McCarthy should acknowledge his own culpability and resign.

Ivanka is a monster. Children of malignant narcissists become either narcissists or severe empaths. Ivanka is void of empathy, her humanity is entirely performative.

I supported Bernie in 2016. I’ve had so many horrible interactions with his supporters, it’s definitely a pattern. I’ve lost so much respect for him and his movement.
I’m a daughter of a mother who couldn’t leave her loser abuser husband, who worked triple shifts to pay the bills, 8 kids. We shared one toothbrush. I’m a lifelong abuse survivor and by Warren, I feel seen. I feel heard. I feel paid attention to and I feel like she fights for us.
I'm the daughter of a single mom who had to quit teaching when she became visibly pregnant & put herself thru law school while raising 3 kids. Sound familiar?
I dream big of an America where my girls won't face the same sexism.

Looking at every Dem who voted to confirm Barr. He has been corrupt since forever. Hello, Iran/Contra. Epstein. The list is long. We have to

. He must be disbarred.
There is simply no way for anyone to say honestly that they thought Barr would be a noble institutionalist. That's a cover. His crimes were his pride. Like Trump, Stone and others, he was openly corrupt for decades. Damning info on him was Wikipedia-level easy to find.
Lindsey Graham tells young women that, “There’s a place for you in America — if you are pro-life — if you embrace your religion and you follow traditional family structure".

False, Andrew. Elise knowingly broke the rules and then in bad faith used the “sexism card” as a stunt. This delegitimizes the real sexism we experience every day. Elise is a misogynistic woman who must be replaced.
Kevin McCarthy gotta go. We gotta get that man gone- conveniently, his opponent, Kim Mangone, is just the woman for the task! Need a bad man gone? Kim Mangone!
This is important. I am the Democrat & US Air Force veteran running against GOP leader Kevin Mccarthy. In just 3 hours, our fundraising quarter ends. We need to get as many donations as possible between now and then. Will you retweet and chip in right now?
Another huge crowd tonight in Portland, including a new "wall" on the front lines: a Wall of Vets.
Here's a look at the line of military veterans getting set up here in front of the federal courthouse. Behind them, the Wall of Moms and the Wall of Dads are arriving.
Sen. Kamala Harris demands Barr testify: “The Justice Department’s decision to overrule its career prosecutors, immediately after President Trump’s tweet, calls into question the independence and integrity of our legal system.”

The woman who is gonna kick Kevin McCarthy out. Get that man gone. Get Kim Mangone. 👇🏻 She’s on a roll and she is a dynamite woman. I mean!
Let’s get that man gone!
I am a little taken back. In the last month we have grown by 120,000 followers in our campaign to defeat Republican Kevin McCarthy and you helped raise $360,000 this quarter (three times the last candidates that took him on combined). Thank you. From the bottom of my heart.

They never expected they’d be living the fear. That’s the only reason they suddenly care. School shooting after school shooting and all they have is empty rhetoric, but it happens in their hallowed halls and suddenly they realize it’s not just theatre.

Mother Jones has uncovered that Jim Watkins, the owner of 8chan and its successor site, 8kun, controls a company that hosted scores of domains whose names suggest they are connected to child pornography.

If you don't have a bright line for crimes against children you don't have a line.
And if you support Donald Trump after watching this video you don't have a soul either.

@HurdOnTheHill
Way to cherry pick from everything that was said! What about all of the testimony of GUILT. We thought you might be a person of moral character, but you’ve proven you’re a soulless coward, just like the rest of them. The American people are watching and won’t forget.
The Trump administration is pulling out of the Open Skies Treaty, which allows the United States and our allies and partners in Europe to monitor Russian military deployments. Withdrawal risks dividing the transatlantic alliance.

wild how entitled to her performance they deem themselves to be. if they’ve decided for themselves that to perform for men is a must, they turn themselves into the enforcers of such requirement. internalized misogyny, what does it look like?
