@itswhatitisSlim @Fly_Sistah I can’t understand half of what you’re writing there Slim.

@latann @Fly_Sistah Dumb azz bch sybau I seen plenty of live videos before noon of blacks who showed up their local polls and was turned away! The internet is free they’re not hard to find!

Meanwhile, you have Black people who will say today that voting doesn't matter. If voting didn't matter, why have Republicans been trying to take our right to vote since 1965?

@PeteButtigieg How much did Biden spend on illegals?

We now know the Iran war price tag is more like $50 billion - hundreds of dollars per household - and counting. It's enough to cover all the health insurance premium credits that the Republicans got rid of for this year, and next. It could save rural hospitals, pay teachers, fix roads. Don't let this White House insult your intelligence by blowing your money on war, then saying America can't afford nice things.

@greendragonhq Bc their state constitutions allow the elected representatives draw them.

Notice how all the blue states that are redrawing their maps are putting it to a statewide vote while Republicans push it through without considering their constituents? We are not the same.

@itswhatitisSlim @Fly_Sistah I live in Texas and saw may reports bc people tried to get in line after the polls CLOSED! Were you upset when a minority run county failed to send ballots to white areas on voting day? If not. Sthu.

@latann @Fly_Sistah Dumb azz it was plenty of people there early in the morning with videos all over before noon 🤡 stfu u shit for brain retard

@ick_real I’m doing it tonight!!

Did anyone else have “fend for yourself” nights growing up? When mom just didn’t feel like cooking and let everyone figure out their own dinner ??

@itswhatitisSlim @Fly_Sistah Well, the f you get in line after the polls close, you will be turned away.

@latann @Fly_Sistah Dumb bch blacks got turned away in Texas at the last election from their voting polls, and U think this about equality! Clown my ancestors didn’t just fight and die to leave it up to white people to decide was fair to blacks

@teachthemx3 Sent my kid to private bc smaller classes, well behaved kids, teachers that care, and involved parents.

This is exactly my point about paying for private schools. "You’re paying good money for the exact same educational model as the public school down the street." When I posted about tuition in the Houston area, many commented that parents were paying for networking and a better environment (fewer behavior issues). I agree that those things are important. I just don't see them as $40,000/year important.

@luinalaska Yes! The weird conversation when my friends’s mom asked me how my mom was doing or how school was going.

We were required to have the social skills needed to pick up a phone in front of our own family and call the home phone at our buddy’s house, talk to their mom, ask to speak to their kid, wait for them to come to the phone, and then we had to talk to them stuck to a cord in the hall by the kitchen. It was gloriously awkward.

@duffthebrand The shows concept has been around for a LONG time, even before Living Single.

I would love to know the annual residuals for the cast of ‘Living Single’… You know, the show they stole the concept from…

@MsAngieV82 All white Republican districts are voting for black representatives. So you are saying Dems won’t vote for blacks. Only black can vote for blacks.

They can still vote, but their representation in Congress will basically be eliminated and what’s the point of a vote with no representation? Furthermore, without representation, there will be no one to advocate for Black and Brown people or share their concerns in Congress. Minority communities, schools, research into disparities, etc would be grossly underfunded or not funded at all, their concerns regarding legislation and policies will be ignored, and laws may unintentionally disadvantage them. Basically, it’s going back to Jim Crow era where minority people had no real representation in government.

@marceelias The current map was ruled unconstitutional. Any vote could be thrown out.

🚨BREAKING: A new lawsuit is challenging Louisiana’s decision to suspend congressional primaries already underway — arguing the state is illegally nullifying votes and plunging an active election into chaos following the Supreme Court’s gutting of the VRA. democracydocket.com/news-alerts/lo…

@RickD_GK It’s full of $1.

This guy went to Goodwill and found a clock, so he bought it... I bet he opened it up and saw the contents before buying, so of course it was worth the $6. As he was heading to his car, a couple was persistently trying to purchase it from him for $100. They more than likely were the original owners, trying to get there few hundred bucks back. Would you have done the same thing as this guy? Or made a deal with the other folks?

@allenanalysis The map was deemed unconstitutional. They have to.

🇺🇸BREAKING: Louisiana Republicans are cancelling an ongoing election to eliminate Black majority districts. The election already started. People have already voted. Republicans are about to cancel those votes. Never in American history has an election been cancelled this way.

@MikeNellis The map was deemed unconstitutional. They have to.

Suspending a primary election days before early voting starts just so you can redraw the maps to disenfranchise Black and brown voters is a perfect example of the lengths Republican politicians will go to rig our democracy in their favor.

@ChrisMurphyCT How about payroll tax?

Our current economy is rigged. It just is. A new report shows that 88 of the largest companies in America, including: Amazon Citigroup Haliburton Kohl's Palantir PayPal PG&E Southwest Airlines Tesla United Airlines Disney paid ZERO corporate income tax last year.

@allenanalysis Because CA can’t stop spending. It will never be enough. Stop taxing and stop spending.

California has 200 billionaires. Last weekend, 1.5 million Californians signed a petition asking those 200 people to pay a one-time five percent tax to keep the state's hospitals open. That tax would raise about 100 billion dollars over five years. The money would fund hospitals, clinics, public schools, and food assistance programs. Why does the state suddenly need 100 billion dollars in healthcare funding? 🧵

@IsaacHayes3 We don’t need it anymore. It’s not the 60s.

Today’s Supreme Court decision on the Voting Rights Act is basically a message to Black Americans who lived through the civil rights era and all their descendants. And the message is… F*** You. We only want white people voting. I’m mad AF. Are you?

@RBReich I thought y’all were for equality. Race neutral seem equal, or do you have a different definition? We know you do.

A Supreme Court so fundamentally hostile to the rights of minority voters places the Court at odds with democracy itself. This is the legacy of Chief Justice John Roberts. I opposed his nomination back in 2005, and I stand by that.

@DefiyantlyFree They did this with Beto.

I personally heard someone speak from Texas who knows exactly what they’re talking about. Who’s very very involved in Texas politics on a national scale and who said that there is no chance in hell that Talarico can win a pie eating contest . Much less a state Senate seat.
