The flaw in America is always racism.

I truly believe that when a majority of White America puts racism and inequality firmly in our past, we will fulfill the promise of America.

White voters produced Trump — twice. Until you all own your role in this matter do not talk about anything else. Period. At some point you all are going to have to reckon with your part in all of this. Until then spare me.
The system produced Trump — twice.

“Saving the system” might not have the cache it once did.

A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

Don't for a moment look at popularity polling numbers and think, "his numbers are so bad they will never vote for him again."
They will absolutely vote for him again. All of them will.

You run to the polls to "save" Talarico and defeat Crockett, Paxton/Cornyn beats the easier candidate in November.

Today was the first day of early voting, so....

Everyone thinks Trump blocked the Talarico interview because he & the GOP knows Talarico will beat Paxton/Cornyn.

IMO it's the opposite. They know they will easily beat Talarico but they want to rile ya'll up and get you running to the polls to vote for Talarico.

Had my first physical therapy appointment starting with an assessment. Bicep tendonitis, and I should be able to get back to normal with six weeks of appointments and in-home exercises.

His name was Seaman Bryan K. Lee, 23, of Rancho Cordova, California, he was reported missing from the National Security Cutter Waesche. He is presumed dead after Noem called off his search!
2 Coast Guard sources.:

"Noem verbally instructed the Acting Commandant of the Coast Guard, Admiral Kevin Lunday, to pull the plane off the search-and-rescue mission so it would not miss the migrant flight as part of the DHS’s so-called Alien Expulsion Operations.

Watching Governor Ferguson’s press conference and I deeply appreciate his commitment to affordability, and to making sure the millionaires tax goes to help folks at the other end of the income scale.
HUGE NEWS!
The WA Senate just passed a millionaire’s tax that modernizes our 100-year-old tax code. This would raise $3.5 BILLION a year to help fund schools, strengthen vital services, cut small business taxes, and expand tax relief for working families! Onto the House!

Today, we mourn the loss of Rev. Jesse Jackson, a titan of the Civil Rights Movement. Jackson’s tireless work and leadership lives on in the millions he inspired to continue his legacy of making our country a more just place for all. Rest in peace.

the branch bernidians have invested huuuuuuuuuuge amounts of money and energy into trying to paint dems as against trans ppl to paint themselves as an alternative. They literally CANT have his record stand and hold themselves as that alternative- "class not race" is a hard concept to sell trans ppl

I am grateful for the endorsement of my Congressional colleagues. We’ve stood together in the toughest fights & we always keep the people first as the conscience of the caucus. This endorsement affirms that I will continue to be a champion for the Black community & all 30 million Texans.

And this is precisely why I made my thread about critical
Thinking and active listening skills and why it is so important to not assume you understood someone’s meaning but to use paraphrasing aka rephrasing in your own words your interpretation to see if you are on the same page before preceding
