Dave Matthews: “This father and grandfather who was murdered by ICE in Houston, Texas. Then they say he’s not even the guy they were looking for. Well then don’t pull the trigger you assholes. It just makes me mad. I want to send this to the memory of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo”

I am an Indian American who was born here and it's crystal clear that the Democratic Party sees me as American and a large part of the base of the Republican Party does not. I hope Indian Americans remember this moment at the next election. They don't see you as one of them. And never will.
You thought they just hated other immigrants. But it turns out there's no exception for you. As many of us have been telling you.

I miss the Grand Old Party (GOP) and long for the day when we can return to healthy and principled partisan debates. (We idealistic hippies sometimes need to be reined in by practical conservatism.) But this election is different… and much deeper than D versus R and left versus right. It’s a clear choice, and the survival of our democracy is on the line.
The world needs not the chaos of Trump but the stability of Kamala Harris. The world needs America.

My name is Olivia Julianna, and last night I took the stage at the DNC at just 21 years old.
This year I’ll be working tirelessly to flip Texas and elect Kamala Harris and @ColinAllredTX!
Repost and follow to watch as I vote in my first Presidential election!

*40 years ago I went running on a stormy day and a tree fell on me. I responded to this incident by suing the home owner and tees trimming company. Then proceeded to become governor and pass a law to make it illegal for Texans to sue in the same way I made my millions*

Those of us who have watched our elderly loved ones decay know the heartache of watching their firm-grasp-of-Chinese-trade-policy phase.

One reminder for last night: when Trump’s audience was giggling and clapping as he joked about sexual assault and threw out his various races tropes, it’s proof that Trump’s real superpower with his base is that he allows them to be their very worst selves without guilt or shame.

BREAKING: In a SHOCKING move, two Texas Republicans just joined the Democrats to PASS the “Raise The Age” gun control bill out of committee in the Texas Legislature!
That's right – TEXAS!
Don't ever let anyone tell you we can't win. Because we WILL.
The NRA is freaking out, because they know this opens up a huge door for the rest of the country. I know from personal experience that sane local laws can lead to national exposure — and national CHANGE.
We're doing it!!!
More details below shortly on the next steps. 👇🧵
