Please take a moment and join the @HolocaustMuseum commemoration of this important day here: https://t.co/qmVFwZmwbW #HolocaustRemembranceDay — PolitiTweet.org

We must learn from the tragic horrors of the past. It is dangerous for a society to forget history, especially the dark chapters of history. We must spread knowledge on this #HolocaustRemembranceDay and every day. https://t.co/cqqybZUjmd — PolitiTweet.org

We must continue to reflect and remember the Holocaust. We cannot allow the result of anti-semitism and racism repeat itself. Today, white nationalism, racism, antisemitism, fascism and bigotry are on the rise again. #HolocaustRemembranceDay — PolitiTweet.org

The use of private prisons to detain immigrants must end too. 400 allegations of sexual assault or abuse, inadequate medical care etc 800 instances of physical force against detainees, ~20k grievances 29 deaths, 7 suicides *These stats are from 2019. https://t.co/BXmgagXlDI — PolitiTweet.org

We have waited too long already. If minimum wage was tied to productivity, as it was at one time, then workers should be getting over $20/hour now. Americans are producing 6x more than their pay has grown. — PolitiTweet.org

Our local Detroit City Council should never allow people who work for the City to mislead the public. Fact: You don't need to counterclaim to defend the City! — PolitiTweet.org

Not a single support comment for the retaliation lawsuit. That alone should be telling of who this lawsuit is in support of. — PolitiTweet.org

@bscorpiio @DETWILLBREATHE My full thoughts below. The Detroit City Council & @MayorMikeDuggan will continue to pretend that @detroitpolice is not using the lawsuit to retaliate against those speaking out against police brutality. https://t.co/lbLyo947dX — PolitiTweet.org

.@MayorMikeDuggan @DetCouncilPres @MsMarySheffield @RoyMcCalisterJr @Raquel4Detroit @CouncilmanTate @Scottinthe3rd @Ayers4Detroit I urge you all to please read. The countersuit sets a dangerous precedent and directly impacts people's right to speak up against injustices. — PolitiTweet.org

Myself + residents today were each given 60 seconds to defend their 1st Amendment right to protest @CityofDetroit Council where they will be voting on a $200k contract to file a lawsuit against Black Lives Matter protestors. That's right! My thoughts: https://t.co/lbLyo947dX — PolitiTweet.org

While federal minimum wage remains stagnant at $7.25 since 2009. Billionaires gained ~ $1 trillion during the pandemic The top .1% have seen their earnings increase 15x as fast as the bottom 90% in 40 years. Redistribution up is the real problem, not down. A living wage now. — PolitiTweet.org

Happy birthday to Dr. Angela Davis! "I feel that if we don't take seriously the ways in which racism is embedded in structures of institutions, if we assume that there must be an identifiable racist who is the perpetrator, then we won't ever succeed in eradicating racism." https://t.co/x5b4wgDs8g — PolitiTweet.org

"Since 2015, police officers have fatally shot at least 135 unarmed Black men and women nationwide, an NPR investigation has found. NPR reviewed police, court and other records to examine the details of the cases." A must read. ⬇️⬇️⬇️ — PolitiTweet.org

The same reporter @cherylwt found that a @detroitpolice ofr was involved in 5 shootings. 3 were off duty + 2 on duty. Each time he was let off including one in 2017 when he fatally shot a 19 yr old Black teen in the back. She found out that the 1st person he called was his union. — PolitiTweet.org

Nobody is above the law, no matter the person or the timing. Failure to hold those who would incite terror on others to overthrow an election process that has worked for over 230 yrs would set a dangerous precedent. — PolitiTweet.org

In other words, the wheels of justice are turning to show that nobody is above the law, no matter the person or the timing. Failure to hold those who would incite terror on others to overthrow an election process that has worked for over 230 yrs would set a dangerous precedent. — PolitiTweet.org

The House ended the use of a filibuster in 1842. Time for the Senate to catch up with the times. The filibuster was created when there was 26 states in the Union. It should end for at least the same reason as the House ridded itself of it. — PolitiTweet.org

Rashida Tlaib @RashidaTlaib

The longest filibuster ever held on the US Senate floor was 60 days in 1964 to prevent the passing of the Civil Rights Act. The filibuster is a tool of obstruction. It does not encourage debate, it does not allow for more voices to be heard, it is for suppression only. End it. — PolitiTweet.org
