Now he needs to grab those newly discovered balls and make sure what he says is clear and to the point. No big words. No fluff. Make it easy for anyone to understand

BMI is definitely a flawed measure. I was 10 pounds from the top end of the healthy range for my height. My doctor told me to stop losing weight or I was going to look sickly.

Hey not from Chicago friends, things are really, really bad here with ICE terrorizing neighborhoods and detaining people regardless of if they're citizens or not. But we're fighting back, and it's working. We are the blueprint for resistance with rapid response networks. Pay attention to us

It’s like if your house were burning down. First, you need to put out the fire. Then you rebuild. Because you love your home and your community.

Supercut of comments from Republicans today alone about the No Kings rallies taking place this weekend. This has to be some of the worst, and most anti-American, coordinated messaging of all time.

JD Vance: "Because we have such a big problem with left-wing political violence, we have to train the investigatory and law enforcement powers of the govt to focus on that particular problem ... we really have to retrain the entire govt to focus on this left-wing violence problem. We are doing it."

Yaaaas! It’s not like us disabled immunocompromised people don’t have kids in school who already bring home every cold. That’s bad enough. I don’t need measles too! (Yes, I’ve been vaccinated but my immune system is stupid)

Amen! We have to use our voices. Like it or not, they hear white better. I’m an old white lady who spent a lot of today reminding people it should’ve been George Floyd’s 52nd birthday.

Today should’ve been George Floyd’s 52nd birthday.

Overpolicing, militarized police, and lack of any real accountability laid the foundation for this.

violaplayer26.bsky.social @violaplayer26.bsky.social · 17h

Today should have been George Floyd’s 52nd birthday. And the scourge of overpolicing and militarization of law enforcement has been allowed to continue unabated. Which is one more piece of why we are where we are. But yeah, talk nice with the MAGA terrorists.
