Just as cases are rising again, the eviction moratorium is ending. The student loan payment moratorium is ending. Cancel student debt, invest in affordable housing. This crisis is preventable.

Hard to overstate how disrespectful this is to voters, & to Black, Latino, Indigenous citizens in particular. Imagine having the power to protect the fundamental right of the people who put you in office, & telling them you won't protect them, they'll just have to fight harder.

The most terrifying words in the English language are: “I'm a billionaire and I'm here to help”

The normalization of an enemy within is I think the most dangerous thing our government has ever done to its own people.

It really is the most characteristic feature of reactionaries: they systematically impose pain & suffering on others while whining about how they're treated. It's the same in all times & places. And it's just fucking gross. I hate it & I hate them.

We're going to end up locked down again, for another miserable season or two, because we're trapped in a country with a bunch of morons. And while that is happening, the morons will be incessantly whining about how unfairly they're treated.

@leahmcelrath @BuddJenn @AnIcarus @AndreaChalupa @ruthbenghiat @TimothyDSnyder You’re hysterical until you’re proven right, and then you are deemed psychic. You are never knowledgeable, hard-working, or skilled at analysis. It must be your magical witch powers that led to your accurate predictions, not your decades of research!

The real contest in Europe tonight is in Moldova. The pro-democracy side won; the pro-Mafia, pro-Kremlin side lost.

History will speak to the cult; how easily they were gaslit; how they embraced the most flawed leader in cult history. How they rallied around grievance; and culture; railed against their own interests; believed an obvious con. But the true disaster was normalization of a madman.

Ah, Washington: where Republicans feel it’s normal to call me a “f—ing b—“ and stalk me at work, but when I calmly factcheck a Sen’s ahistorical, specious arguments upholding an unjust loophole it’s “I’m so sorry she’s doing that to you man, no one should have to go through that”

Learning how, after a Black girl won a spelling bee in 1908, they canceled spelling bees for 20 years reminds me how, after electing a Black president in 2008, conservatives are ready to completely chuck democracy if that’s what it takes to keep it from happening again.

The sheer quantity of psychological dysfunction in America today has become staggering.

If Republicans take control of the House in 2022, Kevin McCarthy will not be the Speaker We are looking at Speaker Marjorie Taylor Greene, or Speaker Jim Jordan or worse Speaker Trump. This is not a game, we need everyone to get up off their ass.

How much pain does one family have to go through? Our hearts are with Leneal Frazier’s entire family during this time. We can and we must build a system that values human life above all else. twitter.com/travisakers/st…

The Supreme Court has partnered with the GOP to suppress our vote. Congress must respond forcefully by passing HR-1 and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. Democracy hangs in the balance.

With the revenue from a 0.1% tax on Wall Street trades, we could wipe out all medical debt in the U.S. and still have $671 billion in revenue to spare.

.@nhannahjones: “We can’t keep placing the burden on minorities, marginalized people, Black people, to have to stay and fight at organizations and institutions that aren’t going to treat us equally and fairly.”
