  23. All eyes on Montana, where democracy is on the line for trnas folks, and by extension for everyone. @ZoAndBehold/1651040363837292544

  40. Prior to the #TennesseeThree expulsion, a teacher's rally protesting guns was already planned for 8am this morning. (It's a professional development day at MNPS.) Now democracy is on the line.
