@hpthompsonjr But the aspiration of equal treatment only "works" when it doesn't work. If you are of a political party that knows it can't win if there is really equality, you'll do and say anything to keep your power, even if you are self -contradictory. Think Mitch O'Donnell and the Court

Why is there so much rage about Trump's treatment before the law, but not rage about centuries of mistreatment of poor and non-white people before the law? (It has not ended.) It has always been an aspiration that everyone was equal before the law.

@hpthompsonjr So sad

Republicans might as well impeach the rest of the executive branch. They can't pass any other legislation.

@hpthompsonjr Surely you don't expect consistency on the right. Remember McConnell and Merritt Garland--ythen Barrett?!

Where is the Principled outrageoutrage outrage on the right when SCOTUS justices call this nation a democracy instead of a republic To undermine the supreme court of Colorado ?

@hpthompsonjr Yikes. Sounds exhausting. Be well and happy!

We're sitting on the lawn at the Mann Center in Fairmount Park, soon to watch Jurassic Park on a jumbo screen while the Philadelphia Orchestra performs the music. But meanwhile, here's our view of the skyline. Everything is perfect!

@hpthompsonjr And, yet, so many do! We need to figure out how to talk to and understand one another.

Trump's talk is just comical. How does he expect ANYONE to take him seriously?

@hpthompsonjr What I take from this is that gender is more fluid than we used to think and there may be no hard and fast "rules." I am also reminded of how important it is to check sources. He paints himself as a victim rather than as a person with agency who made a mistake (or did he?)

21 years trying to get a gift ban in PA. Maybe at last?

@tonystiff Even better than the photos is the fact : congratulations!

@hpthompsonjr I'm with you. Across the board, outliers have grabbed the religious microphone. Way past time to call them out!

Even seniors with Medicare Advantage plans that cover dental, vision, and hearing care are burdened with high out-of-pocket costs. Call your members of Congress at 202-224-3121 and urge them to finally #ExpandMedicare by covering dental, vision, and hearing care without copays!

@SteveDanley I have been in awe of all the teachers and community activists (like you) who have pivoted and pivoted again over the past year and a half. Despite all that I've read, I still can't really imagine what it's been like, or what these next months will bring. Would love to talk!

I’ve been struggling to put my summer work life into words — this thread captures a lot of what I’ve been feeling.

@SenatorCorman, @endPAcorruption. "It’s been 1660 days since @endPAcorruption first asked the Pennsylvania Legislature to pass the #GiftBan. I just called @JakeCorman demanding he stop protecting corruption & pass SB401. You can take action too by visiting giftban.org
