On Juneteenth, we acknowledge slavery’s legacy on our nation’s history and recognize the resiliency, history, struggles, & achievements of Black Americans. And we must recommit ourselves to fight for equality, justice, & economic opportunity for every American, regardless of the color of their skin.

Happy Juneteenth! Today commemorates the end of slavery in the U.S. It’s a day to celebrate Black strength, resiliency, and joy. But as Trump tries to reverse progress, we all need to recognize how his cruelty disproportionately impacts Black Americans. 1/

Donald Trump built his ascent on public hatred for George W. Bush’s forever wars. As he lies his way into a war with Iran, he’s poised to take up Bush’s legacy as his own.

This is who this guy has ALWAYS been. He didn't hide his cruel nature! He broadcasted it and bragged about it! Those who voted for him have NO leg to stand on when they claim ignorance of who he is and what he stands for.

Trump is sending ICE to blue cities to enact the "largest mass deportation program in history" and Chicago is at the top of the list. I'm calling for every Democratic leader and candidate to stand against ICE, to call for its abolition, and to materially support immigrants. Inaction is complicity.

Hey there Scott Walker. I noticed you deleted this after learning that in fact the shooter was from the right. I don’t think it matters either way, violence is violence, so I’m waiting for you to tweet the same thing with corrected facts? Cuz you’re uh, to use your words, “being silent.”

Assasinations of state senators is NOT common. Maybe if our intelligence agencies and military were doing their jobs, tracking threats online for example, this may have been avoided. Instead, they’re tracking Jose’s bodega and Jesus’s fruit stand #FAIL www.bbc.com/news/article...
