She spends each night alone, curled up in a 4.5x8 foot rooftop tent, balanced on stilts above her car. She has seen her daughter and grandchildren only once in the past six months, and her husband not at all. Su Min, 56, has never been happier. https://t.co/Ggk8Yfzh6B — PolitiTweet.org

That day when your 70ish, midwestern, suburban, (White) father calls you at dinner & leaves a VM: "I've been catching up on @19thnews stories & want to learn more about the Tulsa massacre & the NYT 1619 Project, and school curricula, what should I read next? Love you, bye bye." — PolitiTweet.org

I am not convinced that with Latinx turnout what it was in some places, and an increased percentage backing Trump in 2020 than 2016, that any law with a potentially disproportionate chilling effect on Latinx voters is a GOP win. If groups are working on this I am all ears. — PolitiTweet.org

Sinema is an original co-sponsor of H.R. 1 but, with a firm and stated reluctance to changing the filibuster, it effectively tanks the bill's chances. Manchin prefers to apply a pre-clearance formula to all states, which Rs also will not support. — PolitiTweet.org
