I’m conscious so many people are feeling anxious or angry. It’s because you care. It’s because you have heart and empathy for your fellow citizens. Take comfort from knowing you are not alone, and collectively we can create good in this world. Small to begin with, but it will grow. Rest well. 😊

Good morning and Happy Sunday to everyone who will happily and enthusiastically be reminding trump voters of ALL his broken promises because he's too busy golfing, grifting, tweeting, and being an overall tyrannical shithead. My field of "I Told You So's" is full.

A fake billionaire is letting a fake genius destroy America because a bunch of fake patriots are too stupid, too entitled and too hateful to understand the difference between what is fake news and what is fact.

SC educators need your love and support. Teachers are navigating through crazy laws while still educating their students. Hug a teacher to let them know you support them.

Jasmine Crockett nailed it! She explains EXACTLY why MAGA is going after DEI. " They don't want any more Kamala Harris's. They don't want any more Jasmine Crockett's. But I got news for them. I don't care what they do. We will fight to the end to make sure that we get our due."

Before Rosa Parks made history, 15-year-old Claudette refused to give up her seat on a segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama. She was young, bold, and way ahead of her time, standing up when it was dangerous but necessary 🤎 #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackSky

There is a reason these agencies are run by civil servants, and not the private sector. Chaos, instability, and uncertainty around our money are not positives in any voters life. No one voted for THIS and everyone should be calling our reps daily until they step in and do something

The most surreal and maddening feature of the campaign was that everyone agreed that high prices were the main issue but the guy explicitly, consistently running on a platform of raising everyone’s prices won voters most concerned about high prices. We hammered this time and time again and yet.

This is advice every dem politician should take to heart. Don’t sell against the competition. Sell what you are doing to reduce people’s stress and make their life better It’s not about what’s wrong with the competition. It’s about what is right with you

Vouchers were meant to help low-income kids access better private schools. But the bill that just passed its second reading allows families earning $180K+ with kids already in private school to qualify. South Carolina was misled into a "welfare for the wealthy" scheme.

Facts about voucher states: 💥 Most money goes to religious schools - by a long shot 💥 Most students and parents getting tax dollars have never attended public school. They've always gone to private school. 💥 More tax dollars go to parents making $100k or more than those making $50k or less

This isn’t DEI—it’s deadly short staffing. NEW: An FAA report says one air traffic controller was working two positions during the crash. “The position configuration was not normal for the time of day and volume of traffic.” Lives are at stake, and they know it.

If you're feeling despair it's because you have a moral compass. It means you're not empty on the inside - that you nurse hope and a sense of justice in a cage next to your heart. You're one of my people and I'll stand with you. There are more of us than they want you to believe. Hold fast.
