Minnesota National Guard was asked why they’re handing out coffee, donuts, and hot chocolate to protesters. Answer: “It’s a demonstration of safety and security. We’re here to help.” That’s how you de-escalate. Not masks. Not threats. Not bullets.

Can’t go to work today. Shot myself in the eye with the juice from my grapefruit and am now in too much pain, physically and emotionally, to open it for the rest of the day.

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." Theodore Roosevelt

Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day. Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day. It's not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

Watching Gen Z men veer right hits different for Millennials. We lived through Columbine, 9/11, the Iraq War, 2008 crash, 2016 election, covid, abortion bans, & now this. We watched institutions repeatedly fail us while older generations selfishly protected the status quo. 🧵1/

It took several days to count every ballot in 2020, and it’s very likely we won’t know the outcome tonight either. So please keep a few things in mind as you make your voice heard today: – Thousands of election workers around the country are working hard today. Respect them.
