Once upon a time there were two innocent baebies

One would run for office

They didn’t know they were destined to meet and fall in love

They certainly didn’t know they would be embroiled in #Baebygate

A TBT Baeopic Thread 🧵:

Lil’ Qondi: “Who in the Teddy Baeby is this?” ImageImage
Lil’ Natalie: Whatchu doing? Byron is my boyfwend. Image
Lil’ Qondi: Who me? I was just playing on the swings! I didn’t say a thing! Image
Lil’ Natalie: That’s her grandma!

Young Louise Lucas: What’s this I hear about you looking at my Natalie’s Byron young lady? Image
Lil’ Qondi: You see what happened was… Image
Lil’ Teddy Baeby: You better find another name for this other kid Qondi! 🥺 Image
Lil’ Qondi: You are the only Teddy Baeby for me Harry! Image
Lil’ Teddy Baeby: Ok fine. Don’t do it again! Wanna share some chips?

Lil’ Qondi: Sure. ❤️ ImageImage
Lil’ Natalie: Let’s go Byron.

Lil’ Bryon: Ok Natalie. ❤️

And they lived happily ever after… ImageImage
Natalie grew up watching her grandma and auntie in politics

She is running for office to follow in their footsteps and represent District 19 in the Virginia House of Delegates

Byron is an actor and successful realtor

They have two daughters

Just before I scooted my teen off to bed I was telling him about Ruby Bridges

Then it turned to a convo about how I was one of the 1st kids to desegregate South African schools

He was shocked

I implore Black people to tell their stories

Kids need to know to OUR RECENT history Image
Ruby is still alive.

I am still alive.

We can tell you what it was like.

We do not want you to experience what it was like.

Our parents experienced WORSE!!!

Our grandparents experienced ATROCITIES!

All you have to do is 🗳️
We are not a post race society

Not when our elders still have a living memory of WHITES ONLY public institutions

Not when folks with living memory of those times are trying to take us back

FYI Mitch and Trump are OLDER than RUBY BRIDGES ⚪️

Understand our times

I’ve partnered with @CBCPAC to combat misinformation with spooky #ThirstyCivics

LIE: Millions of noncitizens vote

FACT: Noncitizen voting in federal elections is rare and illegal but the lie lets Republicans dispute elections and suppress citizen votes

Stop them! Don’t boo! 🗳️
I’m not telling you this to scare you

I'm telling you this to inform you because voter purges are literally happening 4 days before the election to US CITIZENS UNDER THE GUISE OF STOPPING NONCITIZENS FROM VOTING

☎️ Voter protection hotline 1-833-DEM-VOTE
It’s spooky season and silly season because Republicans are kicking their own voters off the rolls

To those voters I say…

Kamala Harris’ Democratic Party has a big tent with many Republicans

Trump and the GOP are the reason she ⬇️ almost lost her vote texastribune.org/2024/10/29/tex…

I’ve partnered with @CBCPAC to combat misinformation with thirsty civics 🔥

Misinformation: Democrats don’t pass laws for Black people

Fact: Republicans sue to overturn Black laws

For example: Senator Bae Raphael Warnock’s $5 BILLION bill for Black farmers was blocked in court
Senator Bae promised to help Georgia’s Black farmers

In 2021 he introduced the Emergency Relief for Farmers of Color Act and fought to get it in the American Rescue Plan

Senator Graham called it reparations

Senator Toomey proposed an amendment to strip it from ARP but failed
The bill’s provisions in the ARP provided $4B for loan forgiveness and $1B for grants

Senator Bae, Senator My Boo and Agriculture Secretary Vilsack celebrated the announcement in Georgia

It was a major civil rights victory because it addressed decades of systemic discrimination

All the critiques about VP Kamala Harris not doing “serious interviews” miss how this convo, on “Call Her Daddy” on VP using the government to rectify the power imbalance of abuse/ control, is better than the gotcha “serious journalist” interviews
Gotcha questions are not designed to elicit thoughtful and nuanced answers

They are designed to create negative viral moments

BUT here is the thing you can have viral moments by giving people the space to give genuine, funny and heartfelt answers
The goal of an in depth interview should be to get the person to reveal themselves

If they are a good person that will come through

Conversely if they aren’t good it will show

“What did your mother instill in you?”

Imagine both candidates answering

Tell me when you see it
This is the most prolific cabinet in history

After I’m done with this thread recounting what they’ve done JUST THIS WEEK you’ll agree

Let’s start with EPA Bae

Yup he is what America is asking for 🥵

Listen to him talk about how he’s reimagined the now $11B/ year EPA’s mission

State Department Bae is BUSY!

Traveled to Europe and the Middle East to work with our allies on the ongoing conflicts and launched a new online passport renewal system!

Now you can renew your passport online and travel the world 🌍 ✈️

Let me just look at this for a sec 🥵
