Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

There is a lot to be angry about right now, but I feel like I’m hitting a tipping point in my rage with what that man is doing to OUR White House.
RIP East Wing.

Williamsburg VA has a well documented history protesting kings and we were back at it today. Inspiring turnout today with an equally positive reception from passerbys. #nokingsday

Impressive how one political party can control the White House, the House, the Senate, and the Supreme Court, but not bear responsibility for whether the federal government functions. Neat trick.

The four victims of the Midtown Manhattan shooting deserved to come home from work alive. Honor them by reading and sharing their stories. Give the shooter #NoNotoriety. 🧵

You can't support fascism and claim to follow Christ's teachings. It's one or the other. They are entirely incompatible.

This bill is devastating and people will die. And somehow, Fox News and the GOP will convince people their suffering is the Democrats fault.
Final vote. 50-50. VP breaks the tie.
One single GOP Senator could have stopped this abomination. Saved millions of parents from watching their child go hungry. Saved the lives destroyed when Medicaid disappears.
They will all live forever with the horror of this bill.
