Good and competent leaders don't expose their co-workers and their family members to a deadly virus and then cover it up. We need to vote out people that don't value the lives of their constituents or the people around them. — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter supplemented Trump's tweets full of disinformation with actual facts, something that did not stifle his speech at all. No one stopped him from tweeting. In retaliation, the president is forcing social media companies to be platforms for lies. https://t.co/4aUi1EPUr9 — PolitiTweet.org

The COVID-19 death count is over 100,000, that's 33x more than the number of those we lost during 9/11. They didn't have to die. This virus is ravaging low income workers and communities of color. We haven't even mourned as a nation. https://t.co/qCjejWhaV5 — PolitiTweet.org

VOTER SUPPRESSION: The TX Supreme Court has blocked the expansion of mail-in voting during the COVID-19 pandemic. They made their decision via Zoom bc THEY didn't want to be exposed to the virus. Texans shouldn't be risking their lives to vote! https://t.co/x94aw1UyhX — PolitiTweet.org

@LinaHdez8 We’re explicitly taking about an incident where a Latino is holding a gun at a Black man, don’t make it about non Black Latinos, this incident deserves our full attention. Please look at the comment sections of the videos you described, most of the time they have tons of slurs. — PolitiTweet.org

@LinaHdez8 Here’s where we call you in. That comment is anti-Black. Don’t justify anti-Blackness with some videos you saw circulating about some youths making mistakes. That’s like when the racist white people use the actions of a few to justify being racist to Latinos. Also... — PolitiTweet.org

@flowerwolfclan4 Very true. So now what are you gonna do to help out your family/ friends unlearn it? — PolitiTweet.org

Voto Latino @votolatino

It means telling your friend "hey cut that out!" when they say slurs in either English or Spanish (you know exactly which ones we're talking about). It means confronting our families about micro-aggressions. Most importantly, it means putting in the work and time. 4/4 — PolitiTweet.org

We have to unlearn the anti-Blackness that has never been addressed in our communities. Doing this work means educating ourselves and our families. 3/4 — PolitiTweet.org

Voto Latino @votolatino

But what do we do as a community when our non-Black Latinos are the ones perpetuating racist violence? It's not enough to say we don't condone this or that we're against it, we have to take a hard look at ourselves and hold the racists in our communities accountable. 2/4 — PolitiTweet.org

Voto Latino @votolatino

(TW: racist violence) A non-Black Latino held a Black man that was delivering food at gun point. We have to talk about the anti-Blackness that's in our communities. It’s easy to absolve ourselves from racist violence just bc we call ourselves Latinos.1/4 https://t.co/QufU8w5tgQ — PolitiTweet.org

The president votes by mail regularly and the @PressSec voted by mail 11 times in the last 10 years. They didn't have an issue with vote-by-mail then. This administration's attacks on vote-by-mail and our ability to vote safely is so hypocritical. https://t.co/nEmTxNX9g2 — PolitiTweet.org

When someone runs for office, they run to serve the community. We don't need cowards that are too afraid of the police to hold them accountable for killings. Let's vote in representatives that will protect our communities and hold powerful institutions accountable. — PolitiTweet.org

Rest in power Larry Kramer. At a time when Americans and the US government were ignoring the AIDS crisis, he made noise and held people accountable. He was an avid fighter for the LGBT community who was not afraid to speak the truth. https://t.co/10nHhhFO2o — PolitiTweet.org

No, Mr. President, fact checking your lies about voting-by-mail is not stifling your free speech. In fact, you're still able to tweet, unfortunately. https://t.co/fWJdpYfK37 — PolitiTweet.org
