“Fuck them kids.” -@govkristinoem
I’m not sure that using an official govt account to make jokes about starving kids is the BEST tactic for pursuing presidential ambitions, @govkristinoem.

Food for thought (pun intended).
Also if you read the article @govkristinoem was quote tweeting, the kids LITERALLY did volunteer work for the food.

The only possible conclusion one can reach from her tweet, then, is that she’s literally pro-starving children. 🤷‍♀️
If the first two-woman presidential ticket the United States ever has is Kristi Noem and Nikki Haley, I’m yeeting us all directly into the sun.

DO NOT TEST ME, PEOPLE.

The difference between a true organizer & someone elevating their own profile is this:

An ORGANIZER will empower you. Appeals to emotion are always followed by a call to action.

A GRIFTER will disempower you. Language rarely includes next steps YOU can take to make real change.
2/ If the closest to next steps/a call to action they ever give you is “sign this digital petition that we have no plan to physically deliver anywhere” or retweeting their angry tweets, they aren’t organizing.

Don’t be afraid to ask them “how does this move us toward the goal?”
3/ That’s called a theory of change. Obvs no one can predict the future, but an organizer should be able to tell you, “we think doing X will help do Y, which will help get us to our goal.”

If they get angry at you for asking or say that asking means you don’t care, that’s a 🚩

One of the first events of the Biden/Harris #Inauguration2021 features a female comic with a pronounced stutter talking about the experience dealing with well-intentioned ableism from non-disabled people.

This representation matters, because it says disabled ppl matter.
For most of our lives, disabled ppl are (at best) an after thought. At worst, we're left out entirely.

@JoeBiden & @KamalaHarris unapologetically including people ppl w/ disabilities in such a high-profile event shows that disability isn't shameful.
Inaugurations are expected to be glamorous, perfect events. Many ppl—including Dems & leftists!—wouldn't include disabled ppl for that reason, unless it was for the sole purpose of being the token disabled person talking about disability ONLY.

Biden breaking that trend is huge.

1. @RutiRegan mixed you up with someone else, a mistake she IMMEDIATELY & publicly apologized for TWO DAYS before you tweeted this.

2. A miniscule # of ppl saw her tweet, esp compared to you now blasting her for to your more than half a million followers, despite her apology.
But hey, @sarahkendzior, you’ve successfully managed to bully one of the most tireless advocates the disability community has (not to mention a Jewish rabbi) into going private, all for an honest mistake she corrected & apologized for. Thank you SO MUCH for that.
In the screenshots that @sarahkendzior herself took, it shows that @RutiRegan apologized within **30 minutes** of having the error pointed out.

Despite that, Sarah is telling her followers that Ruti kept harassing her, which is a straight up lie, as shown in HER SCREENSHOTS.

Last night the federal government killed a woman whose parents rented out as a sex slave for her ENTIRE childhood and beat her to the point of severe brain damage.

Nothing about this was justice. We all have blood on our hands today, America. Every single one of us.
From the time she was a child, Lisa Montgomery learned that the only time the beatings and the rapes would stop was when she was pregnant. She learned to claim pregnancy as a way to survive.

The crime she committed was a DIRECT result of this trauma. We murdered her anyway.
The debate surrounding the death penalty should NEVER be about whether the person deserves to die.

It’s about whether we, as a nation, deserve the right to kill them.

After failing Lisa Montgomery for her entire life, how can we think we deserve that right?

Jesus Christ. Oklahoma doesn't even have a *statewide* rollout plan and is leaving it up to the counties to organize their own individual vaccine rollouts.

My county is using a free SignUpGenuis page to sign people up for vaccines—which has no verification or data security.
I'd ask why Oklahoma's Secretary of Digital Transformation & Technology didn't point out how problematic this is, but @GovStitt appointed someone to the position with no digital background & he's busy getting indicted for fraud, so....fun!
Oh cool @GovStitt and @RonDeSantisFL are still locked in a head-to-head battle for worst Governor in the United States!

While Oklahoma counties are using SignUpGenius to rollout the vaccine, Florida is using EventBrite!

My sister-in-law was taken advantage by a predatory for-profit college in 2017. The school moved campuses to the other side of the city mid-semester (a HUGE problem for low-income students) & the teacher quit. 90% of the class, including my SIL, failed their licensing test.
When my SIL signed up for their program, their finance office told her they could get her a govt grant that would pay back the entirety of her ABSURD tuition loan. That, of course, was a lie.

Now they’re saying they “don’t remember” telling her that.
Their lies completely destroyed my SIL’s self-esteem & confidence in her own abilities to complete any form of higher education.

My brother & SIL are now being crushed under the weight of nearly $20k in debt while raising 2 kids & working service industry jobs during a pandemic.
