Good morning‼️🌞

We’re in Virginia today with @MFOLNOVA @bradybuzz @CSGV @MFOLDC @GiffordsCourage @amnesty @ProgressVA @NextGenAmerica + more for the special Virginia #GVPSession

Follow along as we make it clear that we need #VotesandLaws, not just #ThoughtsAndPrayers 📢🗣
We have busses full activists from DC, Arlington, VA Beach, Alexandria, and Woodbridge headed to Richmond right now for the #GVPsession!

We’re ready to tell @SpeakerCox, @TommyNorment
+ the entire @VASenate & @VaHouse that it’s time for #VotesAndLaws:
To start off the day, the Richmond @NAACP held a beautiful vigil.
We’re so happy to see so many groups here today and be apart of this amazing coalition of organizations demanding a floor vote on lifesaving legislation.

Together we #EndGunViolenceTogether

#GVPSession
#VotesAndLaws
Hundreds of activists have traveled from all over Virginia to come to Richmond for the #VotesAndLaws rally. We’re outside the State Capitol greeting the @VASenate & @VaHouse before they begin voting for the #GVPsession
📢Show us what democracy looks like
🗣This is what democracy looks like

#VotesAndLaws
#GVPSession
“Black youth have been combatting gun violence for generations”

We are proud to stand with and support @blaquewomanist and the #BlackFeministCollective.

#VotesAndLaws
#GVPSession
Unfortunately the @VaHouse and @VASenate voted to adjourn until after the 2019 elections this fall.

We spent more time protesting outside the VA Capitol than the VA General Assembly spent on the floor... and we won’t forget that.

We’ll remember in November🙃🗳

#GVPSession
Today the @VaHouse and @VASenate showed once again how those in power have failed our generation.

As we continue to enter into positions of power we must and we will think of the next generation, because we know that #ThoughtsAndPrayers are not enough.

March For Our Lives
@AMarch4OurLives
On February 14th, 2018 the Parkland community lost 17 lives in a tragic and preventable act of gun violence. Everything we have done and everything we will do is for them. #MSDStrong
We will be going dark for four days from February 14th through the 17th. During that time, if past trends continue, around 400 people in the U.S. will likely be shot to death.
Thank you for joining this fight alongside us this past year. Together, we will make sure no other community or family goes through what we went through last February.

March For Our Lives
@AMarch4OurLives
This week #MarchForOurLives hosted a reception in our nation’s capital. The room was filled with victims and survivors of gun violence, organizers of all ages, and many members of Congress. [THREAD]
“Last time I was in this room was on March 24th. A monumental day for all of us. With your help, we have been making history since that day” - @charlie_mirsky, MFOL’s 18-year-old federal lobbyist said in welcoming statement.
“Every time I speak to the #MarchForOurLives community I am reminded that I am surrounded by people who have been tirelessly fighting to make our communities safer.” - Congresswoman Lucy McBath

Good morning to all my new Andrew Yang fan followers. I'm curious about you because you're so passionate about him and he seems to make you so hopeful.
Before I move on to Amy Klobuchar, I've got a few questions for you. 1. How much do you think it would cost? (Please don't use Yang's figure, work it out on the back of a napkin.)
2. What would happen to the economy if this were imposed as a VAT tax? How high would that tax have to be to pay for this?

3. If Yang's argument is, "This is coming," why do it now, rather than waiting until it happens? It is, after all, extremely hard to predict the future,

"HOW TO PROPERLY SLIDE INTO A LADY'S DM 101" Master Class

Thread!!!

By: S. Adeniyi Ajose Esq.
It occurs to me that most people don't understand the art behind sliding into DM's, that's why they get rejected and sometimes come to cry on the TL.

From my recent findings, many guys really suck at this and they are giving us a bad name. Here are some tips to help you.
1. Stop sliding into the DM with certain words like " Hey dear", "pretty damsel".it's frankly annoying. If you don't know what to say, a simple "Good Morning, how are you doing today?" will suffice.

Also, please do not abbreviate. No girl wants to see "Xup, hw u doin?".

Good morning.
Yesterday sucked.
What did you do?
Did you take the punch in the #KennedyRetirement and call it a day?
Did you rage about it here or IRL?
That here is no right answer,
There is a WRONG answer.
/1
Good morning.
If you had the luxury to turn of the internet and not feel the impact of yesterday, fortunate.
But if you can live in a regime targeting people who don’t get a break and go “I need a break..."
Are you okay with that?
I’’m not.

Good morning.
What did you do last night?
I picked up dinner hearing Trumpers end zone dance over #SCOTUS.
And #TrumpConcentrationCamps.
And #BabyJails
And a million other things I disagree with.
It sucked.
I just wanted dinner.

Before we get started, I need to alert @FoxNews and someone in DC that this is NOT a war on Christmas. It’s a war on everything else.
Declared of course. That’s the only way to do It. Right Congress? Right?
