Ella Fitzgerald (right) in a Texas jail cell after she and Dizzy Gillespie were arrested for "throwing dice" in her dressing room. 1955. They were arrested because they insisted on making sure the concert was integrated.Jul 17, 2015
"Nothing can reverse the unprecedented crimes committed here," German Chancellor Angela Merkel said after her first official visit to Auschwitz. "These crimes are and will remain part of German history, and this history must be told over and over again."
State Rep. Stephanie Borowicz prayed for Trump and insisted everyone bow to Jesus just before Pennsylvania’s first Black Muslim woman Rep. Movita Johnson-Harrell was sworn in

To this single nurse who stood in silent protest today at the Capitol where people were protesting against the COVID19 shutdowns with confederate flags and guns, we salute you for your bravery. Thank you for being a true Kentucky patriot.

I have seen firsthand. I have been held at gunpoint for having a black person in my car several times in Kentucky in the past 20 years. I have mixed grandchildren so their fathers family are black. Now my family.
Held at gunpoint for driving with my black family members.

So, where's everyone from? If you see this, I'm curious and think it would be fun. Follow everyone that comments or retweets.

Let's put up some more billboards - help us here:
ICYMI: The Cherokee Nation has named Kimberly Teehee as its first ever delegate to the U.S. House of Representatives. A treaty from 1835 created the position, but it's never been filled –– until now.
Those of you who are attacking Kentucky people, just know this. That's what Trump does. If you call us names and attack Kentuckians, you're no better that he is.
WATCH: This is the moment Republicans began their ambush by calling the budget veto override for a vote after they had told Democrats there would be no votes.
Rep. Butler is shielded by fellow Dems as she calls out the travesty and stands her ground....
Just call me Madam Chancellor.

Jeff Ruby is donating $100,000 to western Kentucky tornado relief.
You're a class act, Jeff. 🌟
Thank you for your generosity.
He should stay out of Kentucky. We don't want his kind here.
Yeah, I said it. 🤮
He will never have a normal life. That's on him. You reap what you sow. Boy.
The President and CEO at Goodwill defended her decision to pull paychecks from disabled workers:
"It really was not a job," she said. "We gave them through grace out of our budget to pay them so they had a paycheck to go home with."...
My cousin fell and hit her head. There was a knot. They were going to drain it and sent her home. She died. She was 59.
Just wanted to share this with someone.
"The Russians were who attacked us in 2016, and they're now writing the script for others to do the same. And if we don't get our act together, they will continue to make fools of us internationally." -Fiona Hill, former senior NSC official

When he mocked a disabled reporter on national television, he should have been unanimously disavowed by the Republican Party. 6 years later, he dines with a Holocaust-denier. And 6 years later, Republicans continue to stand by him. He hasn’t changed one bit. Neither have they:

Eye doc here. If you have a shingles outbreak on the cornea, it can blind the eye and require a corneal transplant, which is a brutal surgery. So many reasons to get vaccinated against varicella in youth and vaccinated against shingles for middle age and older adults.
My passion is disability rights in Kentucky.
I notice Mr. Charles Booker showed up for us people with disabilities.
That's just one of the reasons I'm supporting

My grandson has been found.
I've waited 20 years to reunite with him.
His daddy's family found him.
I'm going to get him tomorrow.
To GOD be the glory.
This has restored my faith.
Thank you Jesus. 🙏
I'll never doubt you again.
Miracles do happen.
Praise him.
I finally got a shower and groceries. The home nurse came and my BP is stable. It's been a week since two major traumatic incidents. My basic needs are being met.
Life is precious and we can be gone in an instant. Make ammends where you can and let people know you love them.
Remember the generations of women who's shoulders were standing on today.
In honor of our mothers and grandmother's.
I know my mom would be proud. ❤ 💙

There Goes the GOP narrative.
“Hunter Biden cannot be responsible for violations of the management of Burisma that took place two years before his arrival."
BREAKING: President Obama slams Trump saying “we continue to wait for a coherent national plan to navigate this pandemic.” Obama says there is still time to go on the offense against coronavirus “before it's too late.” We need more of this, every single day.

Someone who knows everything about what I went through with Long COVID, now has it and is telling people “I didn’t think it could happen to me”… after I spent months telling y’all it can happen to you. Don’t be ableist, we can all become disabled at any time. You don’t choose.

If you don't have time to read the whole impeachment report or its various summaries, you can just read the sub-heading for every chapter. It's like the children's book version of "A President Criming His Way To Being Impeached!"

A lot of you have trump friends who are going bananas over Pelosi. Please give them this:
Alert me when Nancy Pelosi sexually assaults someone, mocks the disabled, tears a child from their parents, pays off a porn star, insults a gold star family, calls nazis fine people,
