The Latin verb 'plicāre' means "to fold" or "to bend."
It's the root of many English words; their literal Latin meanings are vivid images that illustrate their origins:
COMPLICIT = "folded together"
IMPLICIT = "folded in"
EXPLICIT = "unfolded"

Sens. Cornyn and Cruz voted against sending aid to help victims of Superstorm Sandy in NY and NJ but both quickly demanded disaster aid for TX. Unlike former Pres. Trump who refused to send aid to states he didn't like, Pres. Biden sent funds to help Texans.

When your position is both “People who can’t afford to go to college shouldn’t take out loans to do it” and “People who do jobs that don’t require a college degree shouldn’t be paid a living wage” it kind of starts to seem like you just want to keep poor people poor.

The death penalty is fundamentally a poor person’s issue. Over nearly 40 years of visiting death row facilities across the United States, I have never met a single person with money or resources. Capital punishment means “those without the capital get the punishment.”

The openness & vulnerability you need to create your work, is the opposite of what you need to market it... it’s almost impossible to disassociate yourself so the shame flows right in. Know it well. I feel for you.

I get it, but some of us just spent the last 2 years taking stances that have led to repeated attempts on our lives - for demanding guaranteed healthcare, immigrant justice, etc.
Sorry if this lacks empathy, but it’s a privilege if this is their first time. They can do one vote.

Let’s be very clear.
The officials urging for no serious consequences after Wednesday’s attack on our country - including the impeachment, removal, expulsion, and/or indictment of officials who aided, abetted, or incited the attack - are opening the door for it to happen again.

We believe that trump the god-emperor will flay his enemies who include the press, liberals, oversight, woke people, US mail, internet, and maskers. And we literally do not even believe Biden is a real person
STOP BEING DIVISIVE AND UNITE WITH US, COWARDS #copolitics
