   Every time @SenatorLoeffler says "RADICAL" close your eyes and hear the racial slur she is really saying over and over again. https://t.co/GG046a9W3r

   White House officials reportedly hustling to get immediate Covid-19 vaccines are like crew members whose bad judgment helped cause the ship to sink who are now oafishly elbowing their way to be first on the lifeboats.

   To be clear, there will be no aid to states for vaccination distribution. There will be no stimulus to individuals or small businesses. There will be mass evictions and foreclosures leading to homelessness and collapse of the housing market and eventually collapse of Wall Street

    Saturday evening thought

    You know the two awesome vaccines that will tame the pandemic?

    Pfizer's vaccine developed by two Turkish immigrants

    Moderna's vaccine developed by a black woman virologist (@KizzyPhD) @NIH

    Another reason for diversity in STEM

    It makes science better

    Hey @marcorubio I know I am just a humble citizen of the Republic with little standing to demand an audience with so great a figure of our ruling class as you….I am untitled.
    Yet, I believe we should debate. You will say it is your exalted title that prevents this. We both

    I am not a “grateful” Black woman.

    Seeing that the Grammys tried to get Tiffany Haddish to host for free, really got my curry goat.

    Thread.
    I see what he is saying.
    I look at it differently as a Black woman. In my mind, I compared the last four years to the ancestors and all the hope that they had post Civil War and Reconstruction. Seeing Reconstruction end and the incoming brutality of American Apartheid.

    I knew that was where we were headed if Dolt45 had succeeded. So, I was always like learn from the past. We had the ability to fight in a way that the ancestors didn’t.

    In all the years I worked in GOP politics, from local races to the White House it never occurred to me that it was even remotely possible that there were people sitting in rooms with me that would one day be in favor of overturning a Presidential election and making the loser
