Why do you fucking care if someone is hanging a pride flag in their window? In their store in their car? Mind your damn business. Why do you care whether someone is having a good time vogueing? Why does dancing anger you? Why do you care who gets married? Who is holding hands?

Remember back when Judge Gonzalo Curiel oversaw the Trump University fraud case? Remember Trump began calling Judge Curiel a "hater" and that the judge didn’t like him because the judge is "Mexican.” Trump is a broken record. His racism is on a loop. The guy sued for housing

Republicans are running around saying that Trump has “street cred” and that Black men will be the new Republican voting block. We have not forgotten that Trump lied and called two Black women “ballot hustlers.” We have not forgotten that Trump called for the execution of CP5.

So an Indiana school provided parents a form to “opt out” of Black History Month. So can Black kids “opt out” of white washed history lessons? Hey here’s a novel idea. How about letting Black kids “opt out” of racism. #FreshWords

I’m old enough to remember when…I can’t even tweet this with a straight face. Sarah Huckabee-Sanders said that the best thing conservatives who live in blue states can do is to move to Arkansas cuz she will protect their kids. How Sarah? By making them work dangerous jobs.

Chris Christie is trending because this morning he told the media he felt “personally” attacked by Biden’s speech. News flash, if you feel “personally” attacked by the calling out of fascism; racism; bigotry; misogyny, etc. then he was in fact talking about you. #FreshWords

Do not sleep on Ron DeSantis. He is a danger and threat to democracy. His conservative-backed school boards have been ousting Florida educators. He will run for President and he will want to take his show national. He is a racist bigot. Don’t forget that. #FreshWords
