The “Grand New Party” decided to come to Royal Oak to protest a drag queen story time at one of our incredible independent book stores. Royal Oak said #HateWontWin. Loud. Hey @stevecarraMI maybe stick to your own district next time. We lead with love here. ❤️🏳️🌈
Shoutout to @sidetrackbooks, our favorite neighborhood bookstore, @CityofRoyalOak for keeping everyone safe, and EVERYONE who showed up for our community and each other. To our visitors today (who were outnumbered at least 100:1) keep your hate at home, we’re good here. ❤️ 
Michiganders across the state sent a clear message: we will not align ourselves with election deniers who fan the flames of fear and hate. We said #HateWontWin and we proved it LOUD AND CLEAR by flipping the Michigan Senate for the first time in nearly 40 years. My statement:
We showed how Democrats can win - fair districts, great candidates who represent their unique communities, raising funds down-ballot, and fighting back against hateful garbage.
I want to congratulate our entire caucus for stepping up in this historic win. They ran strong campaigns as problem solvers focused on the issues that matter most to Michiganders.
The gut response is to point out that I bet these people have no issues with the graphic content in the Bible and weren’t nearly as angry when Donald Trump said he could grab women by the pussy and have never had issue with their library having Fifty Shades of Grey. 1/
Because let’s be honest, “graphic content” isn’t what this is about at all. It’s about creating fear. It’s about creating moral panic. It’s to shock you and make you so angry and fearful that you vote out of fear to protect what they want…2/
Which is to protect kids only if those kids are straight, white, and Christian. And even then, protect them from what? Not from gun violence, not from underfunded schools, not from the impacts of climate change or lack of healthcare… 3/
Robert Regan is addicted to losing.
What a sore loser.
There is something deeply unwell with this man. His enablers should be ashamed of themselves.
🧵 #FearFraudFascism #StandUp GOP stole a Supreme Court Seat! Tried to steal the Presidency via coup! Attempting to steal Congress w/ voter suppression laws & now are attacking fundamental freedoms- a woman’s right to choose!
2022 IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION of OUR LIFETIME!

The Court’s legitimacy is on the line.
For 50 years- Roe was settled law. “Stare Decisis”- was what many of these Republican Justices pledged to follow. They lied.
So what’s next:
⚖️ Marriage Equality?
⚖️ Loving v. VA?
⚖️ Brown v. Board?

The story here is that in an unprecedented move 5 Republican justices will overturn 50 years of legal precedence and destroy women’s rights and the legitimacy of the Supreme Court in the process.
Late last night, my legislative email account and at least 99 others (many of which are Republican members), received this email from a self-proclaimed Republican committee person from Hazleton, Pennsylvania. 1/
This message is the most vile, racist, sexist, anti-Semitic, bigoted, homophonic email I have ever received. But what is even more alarming is I have yet to see a single elected member of the @PAGOP reply and/or denounce this message. 2/
That is because this sort of abhorrent messaging is now a part of their platform. This is what “Make America Great Again” meant & to see the complacency from the @PAGOP makes me sick to my stomach. What happened to being the shining city on the hill? The silence is deafening. 3/
Hi @SenTomBarrett 👋 This is Ingham County Clerk Barb Byrum. And since you’re running to be my representative in Congress I feel obligated to take public issue with this ghoulish, transphobic fundraising pitch. 🏳️⚧️🧵
I thought we had hit rock bottom with @senlanatheis and her fundraising email, but then you had to go and start digging even deeper.
First and foremost, shame on you for texting parents and stoking transphobic fears. Your fear mongering only fans the flames of hate that have wedged their way between Americans.
