“[Gun safety] has been a winning issue, but even more at the front of voters’ minds going into the next election cycle. People are fed up with gun extremist politicians who are saying there’s nothing we can do...” - @shannonrwatts etwn.us/3UUu01p

Our children keep getting slaughtered at school just so these ridiculous chucklefucks can continue cosplaying Rambo at Starbucks

Another school shooting. This one in Nashville, TN. 3 little children murdered. When is enough going to be enough? We are the ONLY so-called "civilized" nation on the planet with this ongoing problem.

This is a choice America makes. It’s not bad luck. It’s not coincidence. It’s not predestined. It’s a choice. And we can make a different choice.

If more guns and fewer gun laws made us safer, America would be the safest nation in the world. But 400,000,000 guns in the hands of civilians coupled with weak gun laws have given us a 25 times higher gun homicide rate than any peer nation. It’s the fucking guns.

Republicans are shocked that the kids they gleefully tortured with active shooter drills for decades grew up to vote against them.

If your prayers without action worked, the shooting at the University of Virginia wouldn’t have happened in the first place. DO YOUR JOB.
We had a horrific tragedy overnight at UVA, lives were lost and families changed forever. Due to the diligence and commitment of our law enforcement, the suspect is in custody. While there are still many details to uncover, let us lift up the entire community in prayer.

Did you know? When Bill Clinton banned assault weapons in 1994, mass shootings dropped by 43%. After George W. Bush and the GOP let the assault weapons ban expire in 2004, mass shootings increased by 245%. — These numbers tell a story.

Abbott knows the grid is failing. Fails to act. Millions lose power, 700 die. Knows CPS is failing. Fails to act. Hundreds of kids die in state care. Knows police radios are failing. Fails to act. A 6th mass shooting occurs on his watch. We're voting out this failed governor.

SCOOP: Tarrant County @Judge_Whitley, the Republican leader of Texas' largest GOP county, said he will back Democrat Mike @CollierForTexas instead of the Republican incumbent @DanPatrick. Whitley explained why in a new episode of @Yallitics. EPISODE: apple.co/3cQJOR3

I trained as a gymnast under Larry Nassar. I know what a pedophile and a groomer are. It’s not a teacher with an “All Are Welcome” sign. It’s not a librarian who has award winning books on their shelves. Love your kids. Thank a teacher. Donate to a library. Cut the shit.

When I started doing this work in 2012, a quarter of Democrats in Congress had a NRA A-rating. Today, none do. And in the past month, more Republicans voted for the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act and the assault weapons ban than had voted for gun safety bills in decades.

Texas staved off rolling blackouts yesterday thanks to the mighty power of the sun and the renewable energy source keeping the grid afloat. Solar power is saving our bums this summer. trib.al/t8kRCv2
