Five years ago today, 26-year-old Breonna Taylor was shot six times and killed by police officers who forced entry into her Louisville, KY apartment. Her death sparked nationwide outrage and calls for an end to police brutality and gun violence against Black people. 🧵

If you’re in the US, you can watch PBS for free using the app. There’s a series of documentaries called American Experience that’s really good—each is about a different event in history. Go watch The one about the Gilded Age in season 30. It feels so familiar, it’s genuinely eerie.

When he declares himself king, he is insulting you—and the nation. You have rights. The government is YOURS. And our loyalty is to the Constitution—the profound and fundamental essence of our nation. Not him. True patriots don’t bow down to kings.

This is the whole game. The red states have been doing this for decades now. Their citizens depend on the feds way more than they realize, and hate the privatized “ bureaucracy” they are currently railing against. Snake, eat tail.

It's Black History Month! Every day for Black History Month, I'm highlighting one of my favorite Black writers or authors. Today I'm highlighting a personal hero of mine: Angela Davis. Not only is she on the shortlist of smartest people alive, she's also a prolific defender of the marginalized.

We want to take a moment to express how proud we are of you, America. You have stood up and spoken out every step of the way—especially when Congress and the media remained silent. When we called for help, you answered.

For my Missouri folks. Let our leaders know how they can cut wasteful spending. I, for one, complained about the indirect/direct government funding of private education, oil subsidies, and overpaying government officials. #DOGE #Missouri www.senate.mo.gov/committeefor...

I had a wonderful conversation yesterday when I called Gov. Mike Kehoe’s office yesterday to leave a message for the Governor. I told them I oppose #SB72 and #SB58 and made a case for why #GovKehoe should veto the bills if they reach his desk. Our career gov employees are not the opposition. Call em

Have you called your #senator today?? Senator Eric Schmidt’s KC office mailbox is full but Josh Hawley’s still has room. Keep calling and encouraging our representatives to exert their authority & represent us. The power vacuum in congress is a huge problem. We can push them to do their jobs!

I don’t have any Democratic representation at all. So I am calling my Republican representatives and senators every damn day. This is their fault. This is on them. If we all call, we can show them they don’t have a fking mandate. If you have Republican representation, call them. Incessantly.

Learning from and enjoying @sceneonradio.bsky.social season 3 on men and male dominance from several years ago. Fantastic work and super interesting from the other side of the 2024 election. PBS just posted study results on the rise of misogyny in the last few weeks and, no surprise, it’s up!!
