Honest question to @jemelehill. Why today when Dems are trying to unify on Voting Rights, take a UNITED front are you back tracking to defend the squad on their no vote that would directly hurt their districts & basically slap down a hardworking administration & Dem Congress. Is
this your way of defending voting rights activists who decided it was *smart* and *about time* to once again stand up against an administration & Dem Congress who are working day & night to pass voting rights? Are you saying it’s us against Democrats? Are your egos so big you
can’t join forces, work for the American people? Fights are hard w/ups & downs Unity wins fights. A strong front is impressive, it turns people’s opinions. Republicans get this. They always have. They stand behind cruelty like Trump, DeSantis, Jan. 6th. Stop cheering on division
Come together as Democrats. We are all in this fight together and we need to tell the country just that. Put everyone’s egos aside and stand with this administration who is trying to save Democracy. Give unity a try.

I believe all of the media is missing or taking for granted the perilous state our nation was in when Biden/Harris took over. Trump and gang had gutted the gov’t. They had destroyed or totally ignored basic programs that had been set in
place by previous administrations. We saw it in health, education, HUD & of course immigration. But there were others too. The entire structure was weakened because everything depended on Trump. His lack of knowledge & respect of foundational pieces of our government weakened
our very ability to support our institutions that keep government effective. He knew this. Like he ran his own businesses, he want autonomy over everything. Enter Biden/Harris who both from experience understood you are only as strong as the pieces of your foundation. They
I find it disturbing that for the most part the media is obsessed with critiquing @VP on a very personal childish level. They write entire articles using inane junior high tactics to criticize her mannerism, speech patterns, shopping habits or even her choice of ear buds. It’s 1)
But even more disturbing is the lack of substantive coverage on channels like @CNN & @MSNBC. This is blatant example of erasing her work as VP leading people to say *what is VP doing; where is she?* Two recent examples of an endless string of omissions were real time coverage 2)
Of The Maternal Health Day of Action, something worked in by women in both the Senate and the House and spearheaded by the VP. What a slap in the face by MSM especially women commentators. Nothing like this had ever happened before but pundits couldn’t break away from their 3)
Because of this trash inaccurate reporting about VP’s trip to France, I have decided to show you what real reporters and dignitaries are saying. This is a small sampling & shows @politico is once again full of BS.
This is their trash take
