Sometimes, you come across something that it so sweet. Nothing but love :)
How I became the Hugging Mom 🧵:
Every day when I drop my son off at preschool, I give him a hug and wish him a good day. I tell him I love him while he runs off to play with his friends. Last week, after I hugged my son, something different happened.
— Dara T. Mathis (@TrulyTafakari) November 12, 2022
The next morning, after I hugged my son goodbye, his teacher caught my attention. "Um, can Keith give you a hug, too? He wants to hug you." Keith was watching me from across the room, shyly hanging out near the teacher's side.
— Dara T. Mathis (@TrulyTafakari) November 12, 2022
And every day since then, Keith has come looking to get his hug, and it belongs to him anytime he wants one.

My cupcakes might come from Giant but my hugs are home grown. I'm the Hugging Mom. The Love on Everybody's Babies Cause They're Mine, Too, Mom. All the babies can get it.
I love it here. pic.twitter.com/ldHtSDznWw

It’s been four days since the Biden White House hosted a wedding for the president’s granddaughter, and President Biden did not invite the Washington Post.
No one in this administration has been held accountable for this violation of the public trust. #impeach

OK, I love this kind of stuff, so I looked it up, and I was wrong. SecDef is #6. Treasury Sec Janet Yellen would be #5.
Still, as it stands right now, there are 16 people in the Presidential line of Succession, and only 6 are White men.
I love Biden’s cabinet!

By the same token it is not necessary at all to reference white Christian domestic terrorism in terms of its Muslim analogue; this is what Christianity has always been, and in the American context, when it involved itself in defending America’s racial caste system.

The reason why I mock reporters who engage in Bothsiderism is that, in 2016, many political outlets decided to balance their coverage of Trump with incessant coverage of Hillary Clinton’s emails.
And this irresponsible editorial judgment did irreparable harm to my country.

I believe that Trump lying about the winner of the 2020 election is substantive much worse than the Biden White House only inviting select reporters to Naomi Biden’s wedding, and that it is irresponsible for reporters to compare the two.
