I don’t understand why one side can get away with things and the other can’t. Who decides this?

I keep refreshing my feed to see if Flaco the Owl is caught safely. Someone vandalized his enclosure at the Central Park Zoo last night. What the hell is wrong with people who would do this? #NYC

Imagine the right wing outrage if Chelsea Clinton or one of the Obama girls tweeted this lunacy
Quote Tweet
If Joe Biden and his administration are too weak to do the obvious and shoot down an enemy surveillance balloon perhaps we just let the good people of Montana do their thing… I imagine they have the capability and the resolve to do it all themselves.

WHO THE HELL is protecting women in this country? They take away our right to reproductive freedom. They want to track menstrual cycles in Fl. And now letting people who have domestic violence restraining orders against them have weapons?? MADNESS

Looks like we're going to get a new Supreme Court ruling on the Second Amendment sooner rather than later because this new Fifth Circuit ruling strikes down the federal law prohibiting firearm possession by those subject to DV restraining orders.

I just can’t believe why Jaime Raskin is trending. The Republican Party is a disgusting, inhumane group who have no business legislating. They have no soul.
Quote Tweet
Rep. Jamie Raskin gets a standing ovation in Dem Caucus after saying he will push back on Republican efforts to make him take off the cap he's been wearing as he undergoes chemotherapy.
"And I will make them take off their toupees," Raskin said to Dem cheers

This morning heard a good interview on NPR’s Morning Edition with Hakeem Jeffries - they fact checked some of his statements during the interview. I hope this is done across the board with republicans as well. I will be taking note
Quote Tweet
Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, House Democrats' new leader, says the looming debt ceiling crisis will be resolved without cutting spending, as Republicans demand.
"We are not going to pay a ransom note to extremists in the other party," he tells @NPRinskeep.

Sadly this PSA is needed. In a civilized society Sesame Street would never have to do this. We should expect better for our country #BanAssaultWeapons
Quote Tweet
After an incident of community violence, children (and adults) need to be reminded they are safe and loved. By limiting media exposure & making space for big feelings, caregivers can create a safe space.

Just making sure everyone saw that Kamala Harris drew 1,500 people (a capacity crowd) yesterday in Tallahassee to talk about Roe v Wade
On a January Sunday morning. In the rain.
