    Trump is facing new investigations and potential criminal charges as states broaden their probes against him. While he may have been acquitted by the Senate, he still faces the court of public opinion. Watch my full impeachment recap on Independent TV:

    “Those that truly love have roots that grow towards each other underground, and, when all the pretty blossoms have fallen from their branches, they find that they are one tree and not two.” For you, a thousand times over. I love you 💍♥️

    I just made a joke about the big boat to my boyfriend and he had no idea what I was talking about. Not sure if this relationship is sustainable any longer. Pls send help after fixing the boat.

    “Help is here and hope is on the way.” - Biden just now speaking at his first press conference since taking office. The president also announced a doubling of his vaccine goal to 200 million shots in 100 days after having met his initial goal 42 days ahead of schedule.

    My parents are both scheduled to get their shots tomorrow. Living in this moment has made it feel like such a long time coming, but the fact that they’ll be vaccinated against what was a novel virus just a year ago makes me so grateful for the international scientific community.

    Some news: It’s my birthday! I’ve launched a fundraiser to help out the most vulnerable students at my journalism school, who are facing dire financial emergencies due to COVID-19. The best birthday gift ever would be a donation or a share! Thank you!

    Biden's name won't appear on next round of stimulus checks, Psaki says: "This is not about him - this is about the American people getting relief." "He didn’t that was a priority or a necessary step."

    students need your help. We are the pandemic cohort paying full tuition. We have been affected in ways we can’t explain. A dollar will make a difference. Please donate to our emergency fund if you can.

    On Monday night, the student SPJ chapter voted unanimously to donate our entire annual budget to the relief fund. While fundraising is not a sustainable solution to the nationwide tuition crisis, this fund will provide direct and immediate aid to students who need it most.

    I'm the class president of the journalism school at Columbia University, and I need your help. Our students have reported suffering dire financial emergencies due to COVID. So, our student government has launched a relief fund. Please consider donating!

    Anyway, I'm considering this my little win against trolls and misinformation for the day. Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.

    He claimed a screenshot of the SCOTUS decision backed up his false claims about the mother, Debbie Munn. It does not. Debbie was present with her son and soon-to-be husband that day and called the next day to implore the baker to change his mind. Court records do not dispute that

    Cernovich deleted his tweets containing misinformation about the Supreme Court decision in the Colorado wedding cake case after I called him out for spreading outright lies and attacking a family.

    Well it looks like Cernovich deleted his tweet after I called him out for spreading lies and misinformation, so I guess this is an example of when correcting the record pays off - even when it brings intense hate to your inbox.
