āJust the classification markings referred to in this [redacted Mar-a-Lago search warrant] affidavit ā made the hair on the back of my neck stand upā¦ Literally human lives can be at stake.ā @FrankFigliuzzi1

āThere is a feeling here that [if] Merrick Garland decides not to prosecute Trump, how do you hold anyone else accountable for violating classification rules going forward in the U.S. government?ā@JaxAlemany

āThis was not just extreme carelessness with classified material, which is still totally disqualifying. This is calculated, deliberate, premeditated misconduct ā a cover-up [with] false statements and lies to Congress and the American people.ā #LockTrumpUp

ā#EspionageAct [doesnāt] mention classification at all. It talks about a specific type of information: national defenseā¦ The real question is, why would Trump WANT to declassify secrets that could harm the U.S.?ā

āTrump has still not said a word of explanation as to why he took the documents, why he did not return them all, and what he was doing with them for over 18 months.ā @AWeissmann_

ā[Donald Trump] has betrayed our national security, and he will do so againā¦ You will not change him. You cannot constrain him. He is who he is. Truth matters little to him. Whatās right matters even less, and decency matters not at all.ā Adam Schiff
Earning @PPAdvocatesPA's endorsement in this critical moment is an incredible honor. The first time I walked into Planned Parenthood, I was 16 years old. Iāve continued to turn to them during times in my life when I was uninsured and in need of healthcare I could trust. š§µ 
For the past two election cycles, my opponent was able to use his carefully crafted persona as a āmoderate Republicanā to earn this endorsement. This year, without the protections of Roe, the risk is too great.
After his June 2021 vote in favor of HB1095 ā the Fetal Homicide Bill calling for *mandatory life imprisonment* for abortion care providers and their patients in PA ā Toddās stance on choice became all too clear.
V few people know this about me. #abortion saved my life.
In '14, as I sat in orientation sessions for new PhD students, I began feeling woozy. I had been experiencing constipation, so I went to the bathroom. My vision blurred, my head slumped. I knew what was happening. 1/13

I passed out in the bathroom. Then again outside of the building on The Hill after calling my then-boyfriend. As he arrived, I was sprawled motionless on the steps near Ayers Hall, garnering the attention of passers-by. 2/13
The old man everyone hated for giving them parking tickets shaded me with an umbrella as someone else called an ambulance. I was awake when they loaded me into the back. On our way to the ER, I felt the feeling again, said, "Oh shit, it's happening again" and passed out. 3/13
Protecting the voting rights of all Americans & securing our democracy arenāt āBoth Sidesā concepts. Either you are for or against. We canāt hinge the security of our democracy on the whims of McConnell & crew when they have shown that their priority is power 1st & only. 1/x
There is only one party in this country that has offered over 350+ bills in 48 states to limit & encumber the right to vote for some Americans. There is only one party that is attempting to change the standards by which the courts review elections. 2/x
Across the nation, the GOP is cutting hours of voting; reducing precincts in minority communities; giving partisan legislatures the authority to overturn non-partisan election officials; & criminalizing giving someone a damn bottle of water who is standing in a voting line. 3/x
56 years ago ... 600 marched to be seen, to be heard, to be valued. They were harassed, beaten, & bloodied. The nation responded w/ the passage of the VRA, yet today legislatures across the nation are passing laws to limit the rights once again. #WeWontGoBack 1/
Similar to then, there is a looming question today for Democrats & Republicans in Congress- what will you do in the face of injustice?
HR1/HR4 puts an end to attempts to suppress the rights of voters & honors the hurt, harm, & sacrifices of so many like my hero John Lewis. 2/

I hope folks can put aside the pettiness & partisanship to do what is right. However if the GOP decides to not move forward, Democrats MUST act and do what is necessary to protect the rights of all voters in the nation. #WeWontGoBack #ForThePeopleAct 3
1/ In today's broadcast of "Lies #MOLeg Tells About Abortion in Missouri" let's talk about if abortion is dangerous/unsafe in this state. Uninterested in a long tweet? Here's the punch line: Abortion is safe! For those of you who like numbers because #FactsMatter read on.
2/All information on this tweet is publicly available at health.mo.gov/data/vitalstatā¦. The most recent data is from 2017. From DHHS' website you can find this quote: "Complications were associated with 1.9% of Missouri abortions." There were 3,903 abortions in Missouri in 2017.
3/Now this includes "20 failed abortions" but what does that really mean? Well Missouri requires that any time a pill abortion fails that it is reported to state. But is this really a "complication" or just part of the known profile of taking a pill abortion? Let's ask #ACOG!
35+ state laws in 2019 have joined to try to overthrow Roe vs. Wade
āThere is great misunderstanding about the actual meaning of having the right to an abortion. A lot of this misunderstanding is pushed by well-meaning liberals so I want to discuss itā¦Long essay ahead.ā

The right to abortion is NOT about the right to not be a parent. Women already have the right to not be a parent through adoption & safe haven laws in some states
Abortion is specifically about the right to NOT be pregnant/endure child birth.
This is the right to bodily autonomy

Reproductive labor is not only a biological function, it is also the base form of labor for all economic systems.
Economies cannot function [are not sustainable] if women are not constantly producing new humans.

Dear @SenatorCollins, You keep saying youāre hearing ānothingā from constituents about #Kavanaugh. I invite you to come back home and actually spend some time in #Maine- and see the incredible community fighting his nomination. 1/9
For someone who repeatedly promised Maine women you would protect our rights - and earning the @PPact endorsement - how do you explain the 76% of women who OPPOSE his nomination? 2/9
And why are you letting the White House papers - of his āmost formative yearsā (his words, not mine) not be released? Whereās the anger? 3/9
