If you're shocked TX Gov Abbot is planning to pardon Daniel Perry for murdering a man at a peaceful BLM march—just remember—TX is the state that sentenced a Black woman to 5 years for an uncounted ballot, but not a white male judge for deliberate voter fraud—in the same County. TX sentenced a Black kid to 10 years for punching & killing 1 person, but not an affluent white teen for getting drunk & killing 4—they had the same judge
Texas GOP has proudly chosen fascism over democracy. Believe them

If that’s what Trump means by “Peekaboo,” he is reaching out to the most vile of the MAGAts. He will burn the country down if given a chance

Dude, while you are hanging out with the fruitcakes at Hillsdale, one of our largest cities is underwater. Now go tell the people in Ohio how you owned Disney and put 50 migrants on a faster path to citizenship with FL tax dollars.

BREAKING: lawmakers moved to another location from the California State Capitol after a “credible threat”
While there are no details, it needs to be said:
Attacking our infrastructure, undermining our democracy, giving away state secrets, openly attacking our lawmakers and the rule of law?
The right-wing in america is comprised of domestic terrorists.

In Texas, Daniel Perry—a white man—posted "he might kill a few people," drove his car past a red light & into a previously peaceful BLM march, shot & killed a protestor, was duly charged, unanimously convicted—& TX Gov Abbott is pardoning him.😳
Texas is announcing to the world that in their view, murdering people for exercising their First Amendment right to peacefully protesting racism is OK.
This isn't democracy. It's fascism. This sets a literally deadly precedent for the future.

The Florida governor’s motto: "Look for the helpers...then target them with felonies." The free state of Florida indeed. @Timodc on DeSantis's "compassionless quasi-conservative" immigration bill: https://plus.thebulwark.com/p/ron-desantis-insidious-immigration-bill

A few days ago, few people across the country knew the names Justin Jones or Justin Pearson. Nor did we give the TN legislature a second thought.
Now both men are re-energized, to a new level, with national attention — and Tennessee’s many sins are now under scrutiny.
Nice job.

David, please help @npr understand that this is a unique moment in history. If they go big on the Fediverse now, it will 1) cost little, 2) provide a way to verify all @npr staff, 3) create a network effect among journalists, giving a big bump to the exploding fediverse.
