Data is power! Illegally blocked by Trump for calling him racist. The Constitution is at the top of my org chart.

Looks like I overestimated the American people.
This election isn’t over, but this should have been the biggest electoral landslide in history.
It’s like people are actively voting for America to fail.

We just wrapped a meeting of our 96-member Caucus, and we are clear: our position on infrastructure and Build Back Better remains unchanged.
We will not leave anyone behind.
ALT Screenshot of Progressive Caucus Statement: “We remain fully committed to passing President Biden’s entire Build Back Better agenda and delivering the transformative change that people throughout this country urgently want, need, and deserve. Moving forward without the Build Back Better Act would put long-overdue investments in child care, paid leave, health care, affordable housing, pre-k, community college, climate action, and a roadmap to citizenship for Dreamers, TPS recipients, and essential workers at risk. Our Progressive Caucus members remain clear: we will not allow this process to be dictated by special interests and corporations at the expense of women, working families, and our communities. We will not leave anyone behind. We articulated this position more than three months ago, and today it is still unchanged: progressives will vote for both bills, but a majority of our members will only vote for the infrastructure bill after the President’s visionary Build Back Better Act

Too gutted right now to say all that ought to be said. Michael was a fine man and a rare talent and on our journey together he always deserved the best words. And today those words won't come.

This is a good point.
When anti-vaxxers cite their freedoms, constitutional rights, and–the whitest thing of all–the Founding Fathers to rail against vaccine mandates, do they know what they're talking about?
What if I told you this happens EXACTLY every 100 years?
A thread.

Remember the Trump Tulsa rally ticket fiasco?
It’s time to poison the dataset, my friends.
If you’re in the US, go and enter as many random reports as you can. Use fake but believable names.
If you’re outside the US, use a VPN.

So… apparently Texas has passed some asinine anti-abortion law where private citizens can claim a fucking bounty for spying on their neighbours, and someone setup this site to take reports from anyone on which women to persecute

On Wednesday, @DannyDevito expressed solidarity with striking Nabisco workers.
“NO CONTRACTS NO SNACKS,” he tweeted.
Today, Twitter stripped him of his verified status, DeVito confirmed to More Perfect Union.

Thank goodness, hopefully this will prevent people learning that Sci-Hub which hosts 85 million scientific research papers. Absolutely do not search Google for sci-hub to gain access to 85 million scientific research papers for free. Don't retweet this. Piracy is wrong.

I’m becoming increasingly unhappy with the quality of representation by members of congress named Matt.

What’s striking here is that this wasn’t some off-the-cuff remark that could be attributed to misspeaking or verbal sloppiness. It’s part of a deliberately worded series of tweets. It’s exactly what he meant to say.

Actual member of US Congress (I checked) describes the end of slavery as one of “America’s darkest moments”.

Apple banned Grindr from the App Store. Starting the day after tomorrow you won’t be able to buy and sell erotica on eBay. Texas just functionally banned strippers under 21 and abortion. We are descending into a Christian dystopia and y’all don’t want to see it. They won’t stop.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
