On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

It is ridiculous to accuse the left of trying to hurt America when it’s the Republican president, house, senate and Supreme Court who are destroying your research and tech base, denying you healthcare, emptying your farms of workers, destroying your investment base and smashing your economy.

We don’t yet know what motivated the person who shot and killed Charlie Kirk, but this kind of despicable violence has no place in our democracy. Michelle and I will be praying for Charlie’s family tonight, especially his wife Erika and their two young children.

They want you all to die. Thus the CDC drama.

Republicans are trying to redraw congressional district lines to keep their grip on Congress in the midterms and beyond. 

Voters should pick their politicians, not the other way around.

Deportation to a country you are not from is not deportation, it’s human trafficking. Words matter.

Military occupation of a city is martial law not crime prevention. Words matter.

Imprisonment without due process is a concentration camp. WORDS MATTER.

From cancer screenings to birth control, abortion, gender-affirming care, or when and where you get care – your health care decisions should be yours.

Not the government’s. Not lawmakers’. Just you and your health care providers.

What, exactly, are we celebrating this Fourth of July?

Our cutting off healthcare to the needy to enrich the greedy?

Our new concentration camps?

Our dying economy?

Our ditching due process?

Our corruption?

Our broken Congress?

Our corrupt Supreme Court?

Our ridiculous buffoon President?
