Today is #TransDayofRemembrance when we honor and remember trans lives taken by violence. How horrifying that a deadly attack upon the LGBTQ+ community in Colorado Springs should occur right before this solemn day.
Hate isn’t born in us. It is taught. It must end.
This starts with our political leaders, who must cease their cynical attacks against our community before another attack occurs.
Call out the hate. Remind them of its consequences. Hold them to account.

The price of oil has fallen so dramatically since the election last week, it is now cheaper than it was before Russia invaded Ukraine.
Price stayed high right up until literally the day when it wasn’t politically helpful anymore and now it’s plummeting. https://twitter.com/therealhoarse/status/1593373981918334978

Voter Fraud
"A video posted on the right-wing site Rumble alleging to show evidence of election fraud in Dallas, Texas... was obtained by the Election Oversight Group, which is managed by a man who pled guilty to voyeurism charges after secretly filming people in his home bathroom."
Also, no voter fraud! The best people!

@Tarah "How does this help make me rich?" doesn't quite have the same ring.
