So: Russia flatly rejected one Trump envoy (Kellogg), made the next one (Witkoff) wait for eight hours, rejected the ceasefire, and instructed Trump that his job is to give Russia what it wants. That’s what Trump means by "respect" I guess.

The special election in Florida’s 1st Congressional District is coming up on April 1. To my neighbors in Northwest Florida: I’m Gay Valimont, and I’m running to represent you in D.C. I hope to earn your trust and your vote. 🍊 gayforcongress.com

USAID’s inspector general—presumably operating from a remote base in the mountains—has just released a report on the staggering effect of the Trump Administration’s assault on the agency. oig.usaid.gov/sites/defaul...

Ron Howard FTW 🎯

Why is getting involved so important? Team Valimont has attended rallies for women’s rights, anti-deportation efforts, and against the new UWF Board of Trustees. Our community is strong—now let’s make a plan to vote! On April 1st, vote for Gay Valimont for real change. 🧡 -Team Valimont #VoteValimont

FACTS: "There are proposals from Republicans to cut $2.3 trillion from #Medicaid." THIS is what it would do: It would destroy Medicaid. It wouldn't fight inflation. It wouldn't bring anybody's prices down. It would just steal people's health care #HandsOffOurMedicaid

This Black History Month, there are three things I need folks, especially younger folks, to understand about the civil rights movement. A brief thread 🧵
