This fucking imbecile greggutfeld is beyond absurd. He argues that Jews honed skills in the Holocaust that allowed some to survive. More than SIX MILLION men, women, & children died because they weren’t useful enough. FoxNews is complicit in this hateful tirade. #NeverAgain

55th anniversary of the assassination of #mlk Jr
Amazing how his "I Have a Dream" speech is whitewashed by today's conservatives. Amazing how those opposed to his agenda use his words in attempt to dismantle civil rights progress.
Listen to the speech. It is a call out, not a kumbaya.

Robert Reich @rbreichOn #TransDayOfVisibility , let's have more visibility of who's behind the anti-trans movement.
Groups like Alliance Defending Freedom are waging a multimillion-dollar campaign cruelly targeting trans people.

Scott Johnson @ScottJohnsonBessie Coleman was not allowed to attend US flight schools because she was Black and female. She learned French, went through aviation school in Paris, and became the first Black woman to earn a pilot's license. Now she's a Barbie, part of the Inspiring Women series.

If you don’t have a seat at the table, you’re probably on the menu. We'll fight to get the LGBTQ community a larger seat at the table in Congress.
