TRUMP: Boy, what a bunch of easily manipulated rubes you people are, it's amazing, even after all this time I still can't believe how stupid you are AUDIENCE: Woo hoo! You tell 'em, Trump! Yeah!

Replying to @atrupar
Trump notes his crowd is more enthused about bigotry than they are for tax cuts: "It's amazing how strongly people feel about that. I talk about cutting taxes, people go like that, I talk about transgender everybody goes crazy. Five years ago you didn't know what the hell it was"

Ja will undoubtedly be sent to mandatory counseling. Who is sending Lauren Boebert and her armed fascist friends to the couch? They could use that time to process some pretty toxic feelings thenation.com/article/societ…

Ja Morant and This Country’s Sick, Hypocritical, and Racist Relationship to the Gun

The media shouldn’t be so sanctimonious about the NBA All-Star while ignoring the origins of American gun lust.

These guys cheated me out of my last pledge and have the audacity to invite me to back a new campaign. I'd guard your money until they do right by the hundreds they defrauded. NIID on @Kickstarter kickstarter.com/projects/485…

.@laurenboebert you have played a major role in elevating anti-LGBT+ hate rhetoric and anti-trans lies while spending your time in Congress blocking even the most common sense gun safety laws. You don’t get to “thoughts and prayers” your way out of this. Look inward and change.

The news out of Colorado Springs is absolutely awful. This morning the victims & their families are in my prayers. This lawless violence needs to end and end quickly.

Big Pharma says they need to charge astronomical prices to pay for research and development. Yet, the amount they spend on manipulating the market to enrich shareholders completely eclipses what's spent on R&D. Today, I confronted a CEO about the industry's lies, with visuals ⤵️

But I do think concessions should start at the top with people whose lives have benefited the most from this system. And now that I've used a ladder that was passed down to me, I fully intend to make sure everyone else can climb it, too. I think that’s more than fair. /thread

One of the most expensive schools in the U.S. and their workers are striking. One of the demands is that all FT employees get at least $40k!? In DC? How is that not already happening!? washingtonpost.com/education…

Hundreds of staffers at American University plan to go on strike next week if negotiations over wages and health-care benefits with the school in D.C. fail to produce a contract.

Take a moment today and wish Rachel Robinson a happy 100th birthday. A true icon and inspiration. Here is a very short piece I wrote attempting to explain her ineffable awesomeness progressive.org/magazine/rac…

I'm enjoying @ktzhaoauthor The Dragon Warrior but I'm wondering if she's had a chance to visit DC. Pagoda-shaped buildings in our Chinatown? Skyscrapers? Dear Katie, Come visit, if you haven't yet since publishing this book.

How good was @cristela9 new special!? So. Damn. GOOD! I loved it. Not a weak moment anywhere except when I couldn't hold myself up while laughing. I really want to see her perform live someday. Please come to DC soon. #MIDDLECLASSY @NetflixIsAJoke

When President Clinton banned assault rifles in 1994, mass shootings dropped by 43%. After Republicans let the ban expire in 2004, they increased by 243% — please don’t tell me bans don’t work, because I don’t want to hear it. – at Los Angeles, CA

I bet this guy has students whose legal names he butchers and will never pronounce to even a passable approximation. Those students will then give him a different name, often arbitrarily chosen, so that he will feel more comfortable.

Child tax credit expired Dec 31st and it was many people’s lifeline to feed and clothe their kids. Politicians let it expire overnight with a shrug, but now want to feed into the sensationalism around crime acting like shoplifting has nothing to do with their actions. Wild.
