I offer these brief words of wisdom from me to you. Commencement is the gateway to your future. It starts now.
Live. Love. Laugh.
Wander & Wonder. Congratulations! ❤️
I am laying here. Scratching my head like WTF happened to America? I am over 50. I have never seen anything like this in my life. Anti-vaccines. Anti-science. Anti-common damn sense. Covid is a public health emergency! I don’t understand! Who are these people?!!
Dear
@Twitter
why is he allowed to do this? This most certainly violates user rules. He is falsely accusing another user
@JoeNBC
of murder. He is publicly harassing a family who lost a child. This is not okay. Please suspend
@realDonaldTrump
account.
A lot of interest in this story about Psycho Joe Scarborough. So a young marathon runner just happened to faint in his office, hit her head on his desk, & die? I would think there is a lot more to this story than that? An affair? What about the so-called investigator? Read story!
Dear Media
#MeghanMarkle
is very pregnant. She would be foolish to travel to the UK in a global pandemic that is spiking in the UK even for a funeral. Leave her alone.

Every professional woman over the age of 50 gets this photo. The only woman in a room full of powerful arrogant white men. Only in this photo she has the power. Third in line for the Presidency: She IS the MF’ing Speaker of the House! They have to LISTEN!

Can we all agree that if

does NOT pick a sister that we will all take a deep breath. Suck it up. And support whoever the woman is. She will need it. We have to beat Donald Trump. No matter what. Our Republic is at stake.

Folks let me say something. If you follow me and you support

It occurred to me that my heart is broken. No. Not in that way.
But for my country. I’ve been walking around dazed. Stunned. Watching endless episodes of

Does't what Trump just did violate FEC laws and Hatch Act laws--he ran a campaign ad in the

briefing room. I mean WHO DOES THAT?!
#PressBriefing
LISTEN UP: one of my best best friends is in a hospital fighting for her life. Alone. She would not get vaccinated. I begged. We fought about often. She sounded not well on Sunday. By Friday she’s in the hospital! Get the goddamn vaccine people! Please!

Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell says former President Barack Obama "should have kept his mouth shut" instead of criticizing US coronavirus response
I mean this sincerely. Somebody explain to me why so many
#Republicans
are afraid of a thrice married. Porn star dating Adulterer. Open bigot. Not intelligent. Russia coddling. Dictator loving. Constantly lying. Ally selling out. Loud mouth like
@realDonaldTrump
I am listening?!
The fact that Turkey has attacked Syria, just 1 day or so after
@realDonaldTrump
unilaterally betrayed our allies by reversing US Policy is staggering. Republicans are you ready to step up and get this madman out of office? The world is literally watching.

Mitt Romney: “President Trump has disrespected the American voters, has dishonored the election system and has disgraced the office of the presidency. I'm confident we'll proceed as the Constitution demands and tell our supporters the truth, whether or not they want to hear it."

They do not care what he does. They do not care if the Russians interfere in our Elections.

Dear Mr. President:
As a Virginian I find your tweet deplorable! And likely treasonous. You are inciting rebellion amongst the states of your very own federal government policy. You need help. You are unwell.
#LiberateAmerica
I also find it deeply offensive as a black woman that
@vp
is being made into a dumb caricature of who she actually is. She’s smart. She was a US Senator. She was AG of California. The 2nd largest DOJ in US. And 6th largest economy in the world. This is pure racism.

This tweet is so damned inappropriate at a time of national mourning. He has no boundaries. No insight. No rational thought. No empathy. A person without empathy is dangerous.
Anyone who thinks I was unfair to

This tweet is f’d up even for Doug Collins. White conservative men smell blood in the water. They don’t give a damn about unborn babies. They care about telling women what they can and can’t do with their own bodies. So disrespectful. So brazen. So typical.
RIP to the more than 30 million innocent babies that have been murdered during the decades that Ruth Bader Ginsburg defended pro-abortion laws. With
@realDonaldTrump
nominating a replacement that values human life, generations of unborn children have a chance to live.
Dear United States Senator Rand Paul: read the whistleblower protections of 1777 & 1778 passed by the Continental Congress. And then read The Whistleblower Protection Act of 1989, 5 USC 2302 the
#Freepress
should NOT reveal his or her name. It is a Federal CRIME to do so!
Sen. Rand Paul at Trump rally: "We now know the name of the whistleblower" before telling the media to "do your job" and reveal their identity.
Crowd started chanting and pointing at press pen: "DO YOUR JOB! DO YOUR JOB!"
Words that will live in legal infamy: “You were told that Mr Floyd died because his heart was too big. And now having seen all the evidence and heard all the evidence you know the truth. That the reason George Floyd is dead is because Mr Chauvin's heart was too small".
I just want people to remember in 2016
@HillaryClinton

she did not protest. She did not demand recounts. She did not sue. She accepted the results. Attended Trump’s Inaugural. And moved on.
On this eve 9-10-01 over 2,997 people went to bed looking forward to the next day of early flights, work, protecting, serving & living. None of them knew that the morning of 9-11-01 would be their last day on earth. Take no day for granted because no day is promised.
#NeverForget
I think anyone calling President
@POTUS
divisive for his
#VotingRights
speech is a joke. Especially
#MitchMcConnell
who said nothing when Donald Trump engaged in the most openly racist, divisive, hateful speech we’ve ever heard from a president. Ever. Just stop. Stop.
Serious question: why are you so hateful? You are rich from lawsuits and firings from networks. You have a family--kids. A pretty good life. Why so mean?
#DrJillBiden
#JillBiden
Announcers for this Eagles-49ers game just spotted the First Lady in a box and of course call her “Dr. Jill Biden.” Wonder if she realizes what a wannabe she looks like insisting on this fake title. Get a real MD or just work on your self-esteem.
Once again justice bends to Donald Trump’s will. I give up. Our system is badly broken. Rich. White. Men. They always fail up. And get away with the stuff the rest of us would be behind bars for. Long ago.

#JoeBiden
is decent. Honorable. Kind. Empathetic. Tried and true American statesman. Diplomat. Public servant. Champion of working men.
I interned at the
#RNC
twice, once during the Bush-Quayle 1992 re-election campaign, and then as a law-student in my 3rd year in the Office of the General Counsel. What Trump and his cronies are about to do is gonna be epic. The

will be in ruins by 2025.
Good morning. Headed to get the monoclonal antibodies infusion at hospital. I still have fever and flu symptoms. Body aches. Headache. Now a cough. It’s been 4 days. But it’s better than the 1st time (pre-vaxx) in 2020. I was sick. It damaged my lungs. This time is milder.
Struggling with a
#JoeBiden
gaffe but not
@realDonaldTrump
’s daily hateful twitter rages. Accusing
@JoeNBC
of murder. And former POTUS
@BarackObama
of Crimes. Being openly racist and sexist to female reporters. Golfing when we have 100,000 dead Americans. Okay. We see you Nikki.
I have struggled with Biden’s recent remarks. They were gut wrenchingly condescending. Regardless of color, gender, or class, to label any individual with what he or she is expected to think, believe, and vote is demeaning and disrespectful. Not to mention arrogant and entitled.
I gotta tell you. Trump has a deep cult following. People you think are good. Decent. Fine people. Are not. They support his racism. Bigotry. Division. Love of murderous militiamen. I think he can win. I have been hearing it all week on vacation in a purple state. It’s bad!
This was my maternal grandfather. Samuel E. Smith. He was not a “loser”. He was not a “sucker”.
He was 17 when he proudly joined a “segregated ARMY” to serve a nation that rejected him as a person or as we were called then “negroes”—“colored”. 1/2
The lying conservative right media must be held accountable for the offensive, horrid lie that

when in POINT OF FACT,
@realDonaldTrump
is literally due to produce his DNA in a federal case on 20+ year old rape allegations by

who is suing him for defaming her in calling her a liar. DNA don't lie.
I am stunned at the tone and attitude of the Press Sec to
@POTUS
@PressSec
good grief woman--you are mean, combative, rude--how does this serve
#WeThePeople
let reporters ask their questions without attacking them.
Here's my bottom line: when the trolling of a fellow human being makes them want to commit suicide. Bullies like
#PiersMorgan
should be stopped. The way
#MeghanMarkIe
was treated in the UK is atrocious & yes, racist. They did the right thing cutting ties.
#HarryandMeghanNetflix
I think what bothers me most about the Anti-Abortion movement is that it NEVER EVER addresses male responsibility and culpability. NEVER. It takes two to get pregnant. When do men get criminalized and held accountable in this PRO-LIFE movement?

I’m really really done with Merick Garland and Chris Wray. They should have shut this down! Long ago! Not to mention US Secret Service. I’m concerned. Very.
It’s easy to say this cold, callous, crap until you lose your child. Mother. Father. Grandmother. Sister. Brother. Or like me, you lose an aunt. These people are monsters.
DR OZ: "Schools are a very appetizing opportunity. I just saw a nice piece in The Lancet arguing the opening of schools may only cost us 2 to 3%, in terms of total mortality. Any, you know, any life is a life lost, but ... that might be a tradeoff some folks would consider." 😳
All I can say is our country is in trouble.
Look at us. We are so angry. So vile. Hearts have run cold.
Death. Murder. Racism. Smears. Lies. Abound.

why are you silent today on the ugliness of attacking children, mentioning them in the public arena, or bullying them online? Your husband, the President, is doing just that in real time re:
#GretaThunberg
I talked to a longtime friend/mentor today, white, late 50's, corporate exec who makes over $500K+ a year--he told me
#ElizabethWarren
is just not likable. She is a turn-off: "talks too much, in your face, doesn't know when to stop." I was in SHOCK. My jaw dropped.
I mean this sincerely: what in the hell do the protestors want from Pres. Biden? He has called for a cease-fire. He has dropped in humanitarian aide. He has worked tirelessly to negotiate a deal. This is NOT ON THE USA. This is up to
#HAMAS
and
#Israel
. Period. Full stop.
I have said this before, I do not share
@AOC
's politics but I like her. She is smart. Savvy. And she is 100% spot on about Rep.
@RepTedYoho
's vulgar obscene conduct and name calling. Where are Republican female lawmakers standing up for this young woman and for women everywhere.
I am crying and I do not cry.
This is HISTORY. The First Black Woman. And the First Woman of Indian (India) background to be picked.

It says a lot about you Samantha Markle when your child refuses to speak to you and loves the aunt who you attacked and demeaned.

I gotta tell you the news media is in a feeding frenzy. They are just tearing Pres. Biden down: His age. His walk. No enthusiasm. Getting beat by Trump in every poll. I had to turn it off. I’m disgusted. The media wants Trump re-elected. Period.
I will ask my daily question: Why is
#DonaldJTrump
still President of the United States? IMPEACH him TODAY.

was now 5 days ago! Why is this monster still the leader of America? ACT NOW Congress. Let’s go!!!

God or Trump?

can't have it both ways. He cannot stand by and watch Trump demean, denigrate and divide Americans and call himself a man of faith.

At WH event this morning the sitting US President, Donald J. Trump pronounced "Yosemite" (as in national park)
as "Yo-Semite" (as in Jewish persons)
No woman. No black man. Certainly no woman of color could EVER get away with this incompetent, ignorant, embarrassing idiocy.
All of the talk about Trump “opening the economy” is ignorance!
The President never declared martial law. He never shut anything down. So how can he open it up?
The Governor’s under their 10th amendment powers shut states & cities down. Only they can open things back up!
From my heart: I want to hear from white
#evangelicals
or any Christians who support
@realDonaldTrump
help me understand how you can look the other way at lawlessness, godlessness, sexual assault, no humility, rage, cursing, threats from the President?
So what--get over it--STOP demanding that people shun, cancel and not allow people they want to work, speak or be on their platforms. Good grief. Grow up.

My take on

Serious question? Isn’t anyone just a little concerned that former President Donald “Lecter” Trump ate documents. I mean. Folks. This is not normal. This is very off the deep end.
