Currently the most banned author in the US. Because those who seek complete power don't want We the People to know truth. My books speak universal human truths.

You probably won't see this reply, but if you do, please know how many of us are crying with you, not only for Wendi, but also for the intensive drive against truth-telling in this country at this moment in time. My husband and I are both former journalists, and horrified.

Let's add to that a bill making it illegal for "pastors" to urge firing squads for LGBTQ people and collecting money for that. Oh, and they should pay taxes, too.

Perhaps people who call themselves Christian should live Christ-like. Ya know, caring for all God's children equally, including his LGBTQ children and children-of-color. The right doesn't own Christianity. Christian here on the left. I don't hate Pence. Don't like him, either.
Amounts raised so far for Texas storm relief efforts:
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) — over $4.7 million
Beto O’Rourke — over $1 million
Julian Castro — over $400,000
Sen. Ted Cruz (Q-Cancun) — ZERO 😡
Trump supporter Betsy: "I'm getting a little bit nervous for election time in that if Trump does win, I'm afraid of violence, & I don't think there's any chance that Trump won't win unless it's massive voter fraud. So I've signed up to be a challenger, to watch out at the polls."

Your 11 followers, I'm sure, agree. Fortunately, the larger percentage of the American People think you're full of s**t. Fascists burn books. Fascists hate "others." You're likely a bot. Fascist bots suck harder than the rest.
I’m going to keep writing books that matter for kids who need them. A sea change is a coming…. And when it does, those books will be available for every kid. Especially kids who need them.

If we aren’t willing to fight fire-with-fire to protect our democracy, protect our right to vote, I don’t know what else we are going to fight for. This is the most important fight we’re going to have. If we don’t win this one, we sure as hell aren’t going to win the other ones.

We knew, but in the back of our minds still believed checks and balances, plus the rule of law, would prevail. What we didn't see was the depth of the GOP conspiracy.
When your 44-year-old son gets out of jail (again), what do you do? Gather him in. Give him a temporary bed. Food. Clothes. And this week will be spent helping him move forward. Substance abuse, ever and always. Good to see him thinking clearly again. Hope this time is the one.

It's still legal for same sex couples to marry. Marriage isn't defined by religion. And maybe you should go straight to JC for answers instead of your political hierarchy.

In my estimation, as a semi-major young adult author who spends much time with teens around the country, not representative at all. The vast majority of young people give a shit about their future. The brainwashed sect is half actually brainwashed, half looking for attention.
Per
@CNN
, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford's attorneys have confirmed that the FBI concluded its investigation without interviewing Ford, nor the witnesses who could corroborate her testimony. So as expected, it was a sham investigation to give Republicans cover to vote for Kavanaugh.
We need 2k retweets. Many people are asking who is challenging Trump’s top Groupie Kevin McCarthy. That’s me. I’m a United States Air Force veteran who put herself through school to be an engineer as a single working mom. Retweet and follow this account to help us win in November

Joe Biden has been every bit the gentleman since the news broke. Took down negative ads, sent best wishes and asked the nation to pray for the Trump family. That's quite good enough, thank you.
A senator from South Carolina really ought to know better. And, look. I was wrong. I didn't even put Graham in my top three guesses of who'd go along with this bullshit.
Lindsey Graham just said Trump’s impeachment is “a lynching in every sense.” What is wrong with these overprivileged racist white dudes? Are they this desperate and pathetic that they’re willing to use the word lynching to try and distract from Trump’s corruption? Yep—absolutely.

Your baby killer rhetoric is not only tired, its a sick, disgusting lie. You ought to be ashamed of yourself, repeating it. I hope the entire lot of you tumble straight into prison. You'll probably escape actual behind-the-bars time, so may nightmares haunt you forever more.
Wanna know something I never thought I'd admit in my entire fucked up lifetime? I give up. I'm done. Not suicidal, so please don't go there. But I don't want to fight anymore. Gonna find a little beach hideaway somewhere, take my dogs and... maybe never even write again.

Maybe just wear a mask and STFU, especially in a COVID rich CA county? Maybe just consider other people instead of your goddamn self all the time. WTF do you think the numbers are spiking exponentially? Because of selfish a$$holes who don't give one small fart.

I'll be 65 in two days. I published my first, rather important, novel at age 49. I still have important books to write, am raising a third generation of kids, and have dreams left to fulfill. Am I willing to die to appease an artificial economy? F**k no. I have reasons to live.

This is Zeus. He was stolen from his home in Montana a few months ago. Last week he was found over 2,000 miles away in West Virginia. Since many airlines ban pitbulls, a relay team of 30 volunteers drove him all the way home in time for Christmas. 15/10 for everyone involved

@JoeySalads
It wasn't meant to be funny. And if that's supposed to be an insult.... you probably ought to rethink running for office. My age has zero to do with my reach, and even if 32K on Twitter means nothing to you, my half-million followers elsewhere might.
Listen to every word. And ask yourself if you're okay with this. Because if you are, you are NOT a patriot. If you are anti-democracy, you are anti-America. This can't be allowed to stand. Because Mr. Flowers is right. It won't end in TN.
IMPORTANT: Mueller testified Trump gave "hope" to "criminal activity" when he spoke glowingly of WikiLeaks *after* he'd been briefed on Kremlin election interference on August 17, 2016. Does anyone realize this begins to make out an aiding/abetting charge? Attn:
