Sen. Ted Cruz likes his “Come and Take” mask so much that he wore it to the inauguration and on the plane to Cancun. He must mean his job...

This feels wild to say but.... We're not talking about the bombs enough. At least three were found and disarmed yesterday. There is a LOT going on. But it feels like those explosive devices should be a bigger story.

So Mick Mulvaney, Trump’s ex-Chief of Staff, is resigning in protest two weeks before the end -- after working for him for years — because he never had any idea how dangerous Trump was? We’re about to see a lot of hypocrisy.

When Republicans say "Election Fraud" they simple mean that too many Black People voted.

"White Americans are not afraid of the cops. White Americans are never afraid of the cops. Even when they are committing insurrection." --Just a few words from @JoyAnnReid moments ago on @MSNBC, in one of the most powerful statements I've ever heard on television.

I have faced violent hatred before. I was not deterred then, and I will not be deterred now. Tonight, Congress will continue the business of certifying the electoral college votes.

Let’s just be clear about something: The reason the Capitol police were slow to respond is because they gave these white people the benefit of the doubt and treated it like a joke. Their reaction isn’t the same because they see black people as a threat that needs to be eliminated

The protesters didn't hang a US flag from the Capitol balcony. They hung a Trump flag.

#Trump Protesters breach Capitol steps and are inside the building. How were they allowed to breach security?! Donald Trump is INCITING this. Remember the massive Law enforcement/Military/National Guard used against #BlackLivesMatter? This. Is. A. Coup.

VICTORY: The Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled that, despite the Trump campaign’s efforts, drop boxes will be allowed for voters to return their ballots. The court also extended the mail ballot received deadline to November 6.

We need a president who believes in science. This endorsement may be unprecedented, but the choice couldn't be more clear.
Scientific American has never endorsed a presidential candidate in our 175-year history—until now. The 2020 election is literally a matter of life and death. We urge you to vote for health, science and Joe Biden for President. scientificamerican.com/artic…

We need to stop framing reporting on climate change as political and just frame it as good journalism. If you’re a journalist covering the catastrophic wildfires and not explaining why they are happening, are you even really doing your job? #wildfires #CaliforniaFires

So woke up to the news that CRT is banned as the greatest threat to Western Civilization. This is McCarthyism 101. I've often wondered what our allies would do when they came for us. Now we'll see. bitly.ws/9DEr
