I made a conscious effort to follow Black Women on here after 2016. It's evident that they KNOW this country better than anyone. And thanks to them, I knew who Van Jones was a long time ago. I'd probably still be signed up for his LoveArmy nonsense if I hadn't been listening.

I’m not about to let the most diverse field of candidates the Democratic Party has ever fielded get winnowed down to all white folks quietly.

Hillary Clinton was right about everything. She had her finger on what is actually happening. And frankly Biden sees it, too. This isn’t about policy. It’s bigger than that. And it always was. #SoulOfTheNation #BidenHarris2020

Hoooooly shit. Thanks, Bernie. Who could have seen that the GOP would use Sanders against the Democratic Party?

This is the dirty little secret that nobody is talking about: Remember how the Dem Party cheated Bernie Sanders out of the nomination last time? Now they're at it again. By withholding articles of impeachment from the Senate, Speaker Pelosi is hurting Bernie and helping Biden.

Ahhhh, my favorite Twitter take. When will we finally hold the party accountable for not getting the things we want done when we regularly withhold giving them the ability to get anything done?

Part of the reason I’m particularly invested in protecting Biden at this point is that the strength of his candidacy has come from Black voters. Where do they go if he’s out? More importantly, where WOULD they have gone had he not been in in the first place?

I’m just tweeting to mention Rep. Lauren Underwood because I think she’s great, and because I think too often we spend time talking about people we don’t like. Keep it up, Rep. Underwood! Thanks!

We very intentionally made applying for any kind of aid or assistance humiliating and demoralizing, didn't we?

@ReignOfApril So long as the majority of Black women continue to support Biden, that’s where my vote will go. They’re the heart and soul of the Democratic Party, and I’ll back them up. I trust Biden to serve this country, and I trust Black women to make the best choices for our nation.

I feel like Harrison is really exposing how NOT up to the task Perez was. I'm sure Perez is a good man, but it feels good to see Harrison taking off the gloves.
