Today, I voted to censure a fellow member of Congress.
When you knowingly break House rules, as Rep. Green did, it shouldn't be surprising to face consequences.
Congress should respect the co-equal office of the Presidency, regardless of who holds the job, do our constitutional duty, and stop with the theatrics at these events.

This is what a deal with the devil looks like👇
@HouseGOP JUST VOTED TO CUT Medicaid, SNAP benefits, school meals, & housing assistance all in exchange for giving corporations & billionaires a tax cut all at the expense of the middle class.

I don’t understand the fake outrage that South Africa is receiving. The Expropriation Act seems to just be eminent domain by another name ¿?
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦@CyrilRamaphosa
South Africa is a constitutional democracy that is deeply rooted in the rule of law, justice and equality. The South African government has not confiscated any land. The recently adopted Expropriation Act is not a confiscation instrument, but a constitutionally mandated legal process that ensures public access to land in an equitable and just manner as guided by the constitution. South Africa, like the United States of America and other countries, has always had expropriation laws that balance the need for public usage of land and the protection of rights of property owners. We look forward to engaging with the Trump administration over our land reform policy and issues of bilateral interest. We are certain that out of those engagements, we will share a better and common understanding over these matters. The US remains a key strategic political and trade partner for South Africa. With the exception of PEPFAR Aid, which constitutes 17% of South Africa’s HIVAids programme, there is no other funding that is received by South Africa from the United States.

To every politician:
The next time you quote my father, let it be in support of voting rights, civil rights, or human rights.
Or in support of eradicating racism, poverty, and war.
Or in support of reparations, a livable wage, or ending police brutality.

Our music has always been deep. It’s always been complex and it’s always been soulful/spiritual. We use hip hop to evolve. To protest. To celebrate. Etc. Art/music plays a role in why a lot of us are proud to be black today. Our culture is all through these genres. Don’t let these people brainwash you into disconnecting from the soul of hip hop by convincing you it isn’t cool or it’s “too deep”. It’s always been that deep for us and it should stay that way. We created it! Once we lose the soul we’ve lost the genre.
Nobody should be redefining our art form but us. Anybody talking shit about hip hop that makes you think or makes you feel something— should immediately be recognized as a opp. Ask yourself what they gain from us watering down our music, taking the soul out, only discussing surface level topics and becoming less conscious. Only a specific group of people benefit from us not being introspective.
Tighten up.

US law is clear: No nation blocking US humanitarian aid can receive US weapons.
Palestinian children are forced to eat pet food and bug infested flour, but @SecBlinken says there’s no need to change our policy. The Biden administration is refusing to comply with US law.

White supremacy cannot be defeated unless we’re all in it together (obviously, a majority of white people are not gonna help).
But… this election *really shows* that a lot of other “people of color” do not want to defeat white supremacy, they want to join it.

There are many reasons to vote against this man, but leaving Texans (and his dog) for dead during the winter storm should have been a hard line for all of us.
