    This clip from my 1st appearance w/@wolfblitzer @CNNSitRoom has been my pinned tweet for almost 5 years because, sadly, it still needs to be said & the goals have not been achieved. Indeed , we are currently further from—not closer to—the systemic change needed. God help us all.

    Yes, Ted. The #BlackWoman with whom you were on law review and who graduated from Harvard a year behind you is about to be a Supreme Court justice. The same week you’re fightin’ with airport staff cause you missed your flight back from spring break. Poor you.

    There is this thing called institutional knowledge. Can’t be bought. Can’t be intuited. Priceless. You are witnessing it at its zenith. This president could forget half of what he knows and still know twice as much as everybody else on the board. Deal with it.

    Since no one else in these replies seems focused on it, just want to lift up some thanks for the weekend employee who spoke up—against protocol, protected your friend’s safety, and perhaps saved a life.

    Dear #voters : do not let these people work you up. Here’s what you need to know about the Jeffries and Schumer meetings: (1) regardless of what was shared and/or suggested to POTUS by Congressional leadership, his response: “The President told both leaders he is the nominee of

    The risks these people are perfectly fine taking with my life, my children’s lives, my parents, my community—100 percent unacceptable. Your mouth is reckless, your motives impure from your lofty perch. This fever pitch circus is business to you. But you will learn what the will
