163 years ago in Mankato, 38 Dakota men were hung in the largest mass execution in our nation’s history.

Members of Congress should be forced to use whichever healthcare plan they pass, but the tier that costs the most and covers the least.
Their healthcare coverage should be tied to ours, and reflect the financial burdens and lack of coverage they are forcing on us.

Yes. We must extend the ACA tax credits so that over 20 million Americans don't see a doubling in their health premiums, on average. But we must do more. We cannot remain the only major country not to guarantee health care for all as a human right.
We must pass Medicare for All.

cool that the official position of the administration appears to be that black people don’t really count as americans
"The Donald Trump administration has changed which holidays qualify for free entrance to national parks, removing two holidays celebrating Black people and adding the president’s birthday."
National parks change prioritizes Trump birthday over days honoring Black people
Free entrance days at national parks no longer include MLK Day and Juneteenth.

The president has illegally declared war to stop fentanyl trafficking from a country that does not traffic that drug, claiming its leader is trafficking drugs himself, the day after pardoning a former leader of a country who is a convicted drug trafficker.

Those claiming Dems should retreat on racial justice aren't hard-headed realists, they're pushing against the electoral tide rather than leaning into it. The story of Gen Z isn't about racist backlash or red-pilled young men. It's the most racially progressive generation in American history. 🧵

This is color-evasiveness at its finest. They aren’t blind or ignorant to race. They are banning discussions of it to hoard power. They evade race to protect themselves while rewarding whiteness.
