Y'all know how your phone has emergency settings where you can put in your name, medical history, allergies and emergency contact information? Go ahead and fill that out. I can't overstate how important and helpful that is to ER staff in critical situations

All these “anti-CRT” lawmakers tweeting MLK Jr. quotes after they made it illegal to read Dr. King in public school classrooms is a level of duplicity I didn’t think possible.

This is the posture of so many school administrators these days who live in fear of anti-CRT backlash. Imagine what’s happening when reporters aren’t in the room.

I think C-SPAN should keep control of the cameras on the house floor. It makes our democracy more accessible, understandable, and exciting. Let the people see Democracy in action. #FreeCSPAN

People aren't deconstructing because it's "sexy" or because they're looking for excuses to sin.
They are doing it because the Christians they've encountered and the Christianity they've been handed are so unlike Christ.

Today my great grandmother, Lily Ebert, an Auschwitz survivor, turns 99!

I often use this account to post lists of books challenged or removed from schools. Today I want to show you a different type of book list. This is Question 3 from last year’s AP Literature exam, with a list of suggested texts to help answer that question.

I'm always surprised that nearly all religious liberty cases seem to focus on denying LGBTQ people things that most other people can get: a website designed, a cake baked, a job offered. Moreover, few cases focus on far more basic religious beliefs that could be offended. Viz....

You came to fight 80 years ago from the other side of the Atlantic to ensure our shared ideals and faith in democracy would triumph.

If you’re a politician or media figure who sets up the LGBTQ community to be hated and feared - not because any of us ever harmed you but because you find it useful - then don’t you dare act surprised when this kind of violence follows.
Don’t you dare act surprised.

Last year Republicans tried to gerrymander me out of the House.
Last week the people re-elected me to a third term.
Today I filed my first bill of the new session: a ban on partisan gerrymandering.

Texas this is my question as well!!! Why did for sanity on the local level and crazy statewide?

My thinking question for today: What do we make of the divide between the really, really encouraging school board races in Texas (even in red areas) and the dismal statewide results?
Congrats to #USMC vet, high 5 creator 👋🏽 and NORCAL vintner 🍇 Dusty Baker on his #WorldSeries title. 👏🏽

Secretary , on a cross country flight from CA to VA, in the cheap seats is one of the coolest things I’ve seen a politician do. I told him that, too. He said, “We have to eat what we cook, don’t we?” And now I want him to be President even more than before. 🇺🇸

So this is Charles L. Willis (filmed in 1930) talking about the night in 1865 he witnessed ABRAHAM LINCOLN’s assassination at Ford’s Theatre in Washington.
He was also stood on the Peterson house porch when Lincoln was carried inside.

Had to chuckle. TV spot claims Guv banned personal income tax. Actually Abbott had nothing to do with constitutional amendment passed during tenure of Democrats Ann Richards and Bob Bullock. In fact, Abbott was a state district judge at the time #txlege
