You wanting to keep YOUR child from reading a book with a gay main character doesn’t mean you get to decide if MY child can.
Your desire to keep YOUR child from learning ACCURATE black history doesn’t mean MY child doesn’t get to.
And just because YOU’RE offended by Michelangelo‘s work, doesn’t mean MY child shouldn’t see it.
Crying “parents rights” doesn’t mean YOU have the right to parent MY kid. Or ANYONE else’s.
So cut the shit.

Just a reminder of when Rick Scott had to resign as an executive of a company that committed the largest case of Medicare fraud in U.S. history. He plead the 5th Amendment 75 times when deposed for it and the company was fined $1.7 billion.

Today, I’m introducing my Corporations Are Not People Amendment—a constitutional amendment to overturn the disastrous Citizens United decision.

Our Constitution requires that students be guaranteed a “free, appropriate public education.”
If we continue to charge Hoosiers for textbooks, we haven’t delivered.
I’m carrying a bill in 2023 to eliminate those fees, and I thank @SenJeanBreaux for leading the charge before me.

California needs a warrior in the Senate—to stand up to special interests, fight the dangerous imbalance in our economy, and hold so-called leaders like Mitch McConnell accountable for rigging our democracy.
Today, I'm proud to announce my candidacy for the U.S. Senate in 2024.

I don’t know whether Mike Pence is running for president, but I do know we’ve already had six years with Pence as a national figure and at best, they were underwhelming.
We are literally at six Pence, none the richer.

I loved #GlassOnion. Loved the acting, loved the twists, loved the humor, loved the ruthless skewering of the mega-wealthy and their sycophants. But most of all, I loved that it made Ben Shapiro mad enough to have a 20 tweet meltdown.

You're telling me that the guy who scammed veterans, scammed his rube supporters, scammed kids w/cancer, used a charity as a piggy bank and/or to launder money raised $151,000,000 to allegedly help his shitty candidates and kept $94,000,000 of it?
GTFO.

I just had an appointment with my doctor and of course I brought along a member of the city council to advise. Thanks Dr. Oz for the suggestion!

Nancy Pelosi is more of an alpha male than Donald Trump, Nick Adams, Tucker Carlson, and Sean Hannity combined.
