Unreal. Republicans have spent, according to the final tally, $215 million dollars on anti-trans advertisements across the United States, not including cable/streaming. It's been the biggest type of ad run by far by Republicans. This is their closing message.
Final tally: According to data from @Ad_Impact, Republicans spent nearly $215 million on network TV ads that paint trans people as a national threat. This figure does not include cable or streaming ads. There are 1.6 million trans people over the age of 13 in the U.S.

I miss my husband (he’s been gone over a week), but I’m thrilled that he’s getting to work the polls on Election Day.
I’m working the polls for @durhampeoples out at Club Boulevard Elementary until 3pm and then at Forest View Elementary until the polls close. Let’s vote #Durham!!! (and even if you’ve already voted please feel free to stop by and say hi! 👋🏻)

I’m 6 hours ahead of EST in Paris, and I am not starting Election Night festivities until I have cold, hard, data. So sometime tomorrow.
We’re a six hours ahead of ET here in Angouleme, so the Election Night festivities will start earlier here.

.@violadavis & @Beyonce are pretty much the perfect combination.
Wow. This new Kamala Harris ad narrated by Viola Davis is one of the most powerful things I’ve watched. It tells the story, experience, & vision of Kamala Harris & why she is ready for this. It’s a masterpiece & it sent chills down my body. Watch & share.

Hey @Comey. Do you ever think about how many people have died, and how many lives have been ruined all because of your deep hatred of women? I think about it sometimes.

Important reminder for North Carolina voters who haven't yet put mail-in ballots in the mail: DONT! NC no longer allows ballots to arrive after the election. You'll need to deliver it to your county elections office (or go vote in person) tomorrow #ncpol wral.com/story/haven-t-maile…

The idea that he might oversee Health and Human Services should frighten us all.
The prospect that RFK Jr may have any influence over protocols, procedures, treatments, medications, and vaccinations in the VA health care system should be a frightening prospect to all of us who rely on it completely. And our families.

I’m genuinely stunned that more men don’t get this.
I have been asked on two different networks and by two different male hosts today whether abortion rights are as important to women as the economy. I can't say it more clearly: reproductive freedom is economic freedom. They are intrinsically intwined, as every woman knows.

1/When I protested against mandatory hijab, after the security forces arrested me, my family was pressured to declare me mentally ill, the Islamic republic of Iran even taking me to a forensic doctor. One of my relatives came to see me in prison and shared the situation.
She’s not “brave,” she was having a mental health crisis.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
It reproduces verbatim the official version of the Iranian regime, the one that has killed women for not wearing the ‘correct’ attire en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_…

Replying to @marcorandazza
I don’t know “a lot” about women, but I think “hey, ladies, how about I equate control of your own body to regulations on inanimate objects I’d like to own” is maybe part of the problem with your *modest proposal* here?
