WHAT TO DO WHEN ASKED FOR YOUR PROOF OF VAX

@BenLaBolt @bsw5020 @iamalsorg Done and done.

Lost to the refs.

@MylesMill @IAmCicelyTyson ❤️❤️❤️❤️

At the 2008 Democratic National Convention, I ran into @IAmCicelyTyson. I was star struck. She was one of grandma Dot’s favorite actresses. Without thinking I pulled out my phone and called her, while Ms. Tyson stood nearby. She said, “I usually don’t take phone calls...”

@MsLaToshaBrown We are grateful.

We worked. We believed. We won.

It’s the fact that we woke up to no consequences. That my peers have faced more consequences for protesting. That Kaepernick lost his career for participating in peaceful discourse. I do not have the intellectual space or emotional space for whiteness today. I just don’t.

For me, the striking thing about so many of these images of rioters in the Capitol is that what they're doing - all of them - is creating content for social media. At least in their minds, the true seat of power is not actually in that building. It's online.

A few short years ago, Capitol Police arrested Rev. Raphael Warnock for praying in the rotunda in protest of GOP efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act hankjohnson.house.gov/media-center/i…

I keep remembering that Mitch McConnell threw Elizabeth Warren out of the Senate for reading a letter from Coretta Scott King.

So is Kaepernick taking a knee still an inappropriate way to protest?

And cue the right-wing pivot to "let's just move on." One of the things you do to make sure it doesn't happen again is you publicly blame, shame, and hold fully accountable the people who are responsible for it.

@staceyabrams @ossoff @ReverendWarnock You are a true blessing and patriot. 🙌🏻

While today’s terrible display of terror and meanness shakes us, let’s remember: @ossoff, Jewish son of an immigrant & @ReverendWarnock, first Black Senator from Georgia, will join a Catholic POTUS & the first woman, Black + Indian VP in our nation’s capital. God bless America.

Yes. This isn’t just the result of spineless folks over the last 4 years — there is a direct line from @senatemajldr in ‘08 to right now.

White privilege is violently storming the US Capitol and just...being sent home.

This 👇🏻 needs to happen immediately.

Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley will never lead the country but they will go down in infamy for leading, instigating and enabling domestic terrorists.
