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. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

@aoc.bsky.social Why isn't this bigger news?

Missouri company purchases Dominion Voting Machines. Former Republican election official buys Dominion Voting — a target of 2020 conspiracy theories.

Now Republican's own the voting machines, this is why they're not concerned about voters!!

I will be there. I am so scared of violence because I'm disabled and I cannot run away or use a weapon if needed, but I'm going anyway because it's worth it.

Only one thing could top the honor of speaking at the No Kings rally, and that's the honor of speaking at No Kings 2. See you October 18th!

“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

I AM a boomer grandmother and I'll be there with my No Kings jacket, my sign and American flag and if any maggot gets nasty I'll ring my bell and sing at you. Fair warning, I'll be high on 3 advil and can't carry a tune in a bucket.
