Non-farm payrolls added a cracking 517,000 jobs in January, well above market expectations of +190k. This is a breathtaking number. That spike in stories about layoffs? It was about a small unrepresentative slice of the economy. Real America is still getting back to work.

In response to women exercising their constitutional right to travel for abortion, politicians are threatening to take away that right. We are cannot let that happen. Today, I reintroduced the Ensuring Women’s Right to Reproductive Freedom Act. Read more: fletcher.house.gov/news/docu…

Newsmax: You don't carry us anymore? DirecTV: Not enough people watch and the fees you want are too high. Newsmax: You can't do this. It's censorship. DirecTV: No. Just business. Ted Cruz, Lindsey Graham, Mike Lee, and Tom Cotton: This is censorship! view.newsletters.cnn.com/mes…

Multiple GOP-run states are considering bills to make it illegal to dress up as someone of another gender in public. Given that, I thought it might be good to recall a few Americans who have done so in the past. We'll start with America's Mayor, Rudy Giuliani. (1/x)

When I was a public school teacher, I struggled to make ends meet. 40% of Texas teachers work a second job. Thousands are leaving the profession to find work that can pay the bills. Today I’m introducing legislation to give every teacher in Texas a $15,000 pay raise. #txlege

Yes, I kept reading to see what Robby was so honked off about... It all seemed like a social media company actually trying to contribute to the greater good. I am very critical of Facebook, but this all seems like kinda good news?
This thread is hilarious. Basically: Facebook consulted the country's leading infectious disease experts and took their advice. A SHOCKING REVEAL.

Actor: Seth Rogen Actress: Viola Davis Director: Steven Spielberg Writer: Mike White Below the Line: Justin Hurwitz Wild Card: Duh! Of course the only answer is @tanyagiles!

Team Biden found the documents, immediately contacted the archives, and returned them. Trump and his lawyers repeatedly deceived authorities and did everything possible to avoid returning them. These are not the same thing
