If you're traveling to Florida, definitely stay alert, especially if you’re not white. They have closed the agency that monitors police misconduct and the Florida police are free to do as they will.

I won’t be going there. More work from Republicans.

Florida's police oversight boards shutter after new state law:

Shut up, Black lady. The white woman didn’t “address you.”

This is not ok, but unfortunately it's what the masses chose in this country or did by default if they sat it out or voted some 3rd party.

It's not even a federally approved department and our Trump has unilaterally given permission for him to access everyone's information.

We don’t need permission.

@TonyStark @GGMcBG I’ll help.

Republicans voted for 50 years to kill Roe and Obamacare and other things.

A bunch of voters who claim to be leftists literally refused to understand that democracy is fragile, and progress is slow. Too impatient to vote. They screwed me over.

It’s on the voters, not the candidates or campaigns. Plus the misogynoir didn’t help and that exists on the left, too.

I'm tired of people saying the “establishment interest” is running the Democratic Party. It’s vacuous.

The people who have spent their time getting out the vote and lobbying for everyone’s interest are for the very large part just regular people volunteering their time because they care about stuff, mostly women and mostly minority women.

It's like saying I don't like people who actually show up.

And it’s more than rich coming from anyone who’s been in the government for decades, themselves.

Americans surely did vote for this or fell for a lot of lies and sat it out.

They didn’t do their research or listen to anyone else and now they’re going to find out what he’s really about and how detrimental that decision was.

Only way to learn now. I told everyone.

Americans Didn’t Vote for What Donald Trump Is About to Give Them:

@joeinwynnewood @TonyStark It’s not a messaging problem.

Election results: There was only one big question. We just got a terrifying answer.

@TonyStark He is a clown out of his league.

The problem is money. Rich folks and large corporations don't want to pay taxes. Towards that end they will go to any lengths.

Biden has had no problem with his day job. He is the most effective POTUS since FDR. He does have a problem campaigning, specifically feeding a public nurtured on infopablum a message they can easily digest. Kamala doesn't have the messaging problem, but she is Black and a woman, two strikes against her with the big donors.

That’s what’s happening. Don’t be fooled.

@TonyStark

White liberals: OMG we’re fucking doomed.

Black Democrats: Fuck Trump, let’s go Joe/Kamala.

Same shit every year. White people gonna white.

@TonyStark I’m not interested in having a rapist’s baby. So if someone thinks they’re helping out women with that attitude, they can fuck way off. Surely was a man.

The real base of the Democratic Party is Black people, which is why we are being targeted by extremists.

There are 2 cults who want us to stay home and let Trump win and neither cult cares about the rights or safety of Black people at all, no matter how many hashtags they throw around.

Good for the DOJ for shutting down the bogus political theater performed by the most heinous of human beings and hypocrites, Jim Jordan, the buffoon who's never even written a bill in the House, let alone had one passed. He excels at making trouble, and not the good kind like the late John Lewis talked about.

Person I’ve never seen before on internet: “I refuse to vote for Joe Biden or Donald Trump and you should do the same.”

Me: “What state do you live in?”

Person: “None, I live in another country.”

Me: “Oh, you vote from abroad?”

Person: “No.”

Me:
