This is why we won't/can't stop. We stand on the shoulder of those who came before us, and are building a path for those who ARE coming after us. ❤️🔥

When folks gripe about DEI, remind them who benefited from shutting out dancers like Copeland. That pattern runs through our whole history.

JUST IN: Mike Johnson plans to swear in Rep.-elect Matt Van Epps on Thursday — less than two days after he won the TN-07 special election.
As a reminder, it took Johnson 50 days to swear in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva.

Reform targeting children is disgusting. Most children who don’t yet speak English become completely bilingual very quickly. I’ve seen kids going from not speaking any English to outperforming their peers a few years later. Being bilingual has amazing cognitive benefits.
Leave these kids alone!

Putin did not show any respect to the U.S. - U.S. delegation had to wait for three hours for Putin and then he rejected the U.S. peace plan.

There was a 13 point swing last night in TN-07.
If we see a 13 point swing in South Carolina in Nov 2026 Lindsey Graham will be retired and I will be the first ever pediatrician Senator.

I'm actually pretty stunned by this.
The same person 5 years ago would have laughed at such a claim and made it the subject of a tweet-storm + blog post + podcast.

Trump and Republicans promised to lower costs on day one—and as we can see, that was a lie. Prices shot up, and health care will spike again because they refuse to extend the ACA credits.
Now they claim “affordability” is a con job. Since when is feeding your family or seeing a doctor a scam?
