The name “President Donald J. Trump Ballroom” will only *stick* until the next Democratic president demolishes it and renames it grounds the “Jacqueline Kennedy Rose Garden 2.0.”

...holy shit I've never heard a cis person Get It so completely.
Remember how scary it was for the 36 hours where it felt like the Right could explode into violence as a repercussion of an assassination? That's what our trans brothers & sisters feel like every fucking day
We have to protect them at all costs. They are our line in the sand; not a bargaining chip.

what is amazing and so corrupt is that all these people who claim to be "christians" and who talk about Jesus regularly, are voting for a bill which is the exact opposite of the life and message of Jesus. They are rewarding the rich and hurting the downtrodden. Jesus would condemn the GOP today.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Do you remember that time Pence tried to see Hamilton and the cast called him out.
Or when McConnell was chased out of a resraurant and not allowed a peaceful meal.
Or when Cruz abandoned Texas during the deep freeze and we shamed him into going home.
That.
Do that.

Missouri's AG Andrew Bailey is suing Starbucks, arguing that its workforce is too "female" and "non-white" and as a result Missouri consumers “pay higher prices and wait longer for goods and services" because its workforce is "less qualified"
This is a brazenly racist and sexist lawsuit.
