Below are my Sancti-Fly Tweets of the week. It has been a minute since I've cruised around Twitter at times to shine a light on some random tweets I think are really significant or funny.
Acho
Today is a good day to start!
This first "FridayFeeling" tweet comes from Acho. It is a very important message from a quote. It is time for us to band together and seek out more mental awareness resources. May is Mental Health Awareness Month. Practice self- love just a little bit more and encourage your family and friends to do the same. There are so many issues going on in our world. Bullying is at a height. Suicide is on the rise. There are a variety of mental health issues not being addressed as it should be. Take care of yourself. Reach out to the unity awaiting to assist you. Today is a good time to start taking care of no one else but you!

I can't Fly 65!
We should all do this one day! You will feel some kind of way if you tried this. You certainly would have the best "FridayFeeling" ever. Well, if you like adventure and roller coasters this will be right up your alley.
The Columbia Bugle
President Trump on Prime Minister of Hungary Victor Orbán: “You're respected all over Europe. Probably like me a little bit controversial, but that's okay. You've done a good job and you've kept your country safe."
This third tweet comes from The Columbia Bungle. Apparently President Trump had a meeting with Prime Minister Viktor Orbán of Hungary. Trump made a statement about Prime Minister Orban being of great character and being a great leader. Other folks did not agree with his sentiments.
Mehdi Hasan
He’s tweeting about antisemitism on the day he’s hosting Viktor Orbán in the Oval Office. You can’t make this stuff up.
Mehdi Hasan certainly did not like the fact President Trump had a meeting with Prime Minister Orbán. I surmise to some he is associated with a negative force of oligarchy and to others Orbán is viewed as a positive light.
SenatorDurbin
Today, the House made history and passed the bipartisan #EqualityAct. This is a common sense bill that would protect LGBTQ Americans from discrimination. Leader McConnell should stop making the Senate a legislative graveyard and bring this important bill to the floor right away.
Politicians like Senator Durbin, Pelosi and Cummings, are all on board with this new Equality Act that was passed today (5/17/19). Republicans and Democrats worked together (say what) to get the job done!The Equality bill protects those men and women in the LGBTO community from being discriminated from. I hope and pray for policies to be passed on issues affecting mental health, criminal justice, and consumer protection.
Tariq Nasheed
#EqualityAct piggy-backed off the Civil Rights act that Foundational Black Americans fought for. Now it is completely legal for white ppl to execute Black people for any reason with impunity. And there is no national opposition to this anti-Black policy. Yet Ed Buck is protected.
There is always a different perspective with Tariq. It is always good to be open to all. I wanted to know who the heck Ed Buck was. He is most definitely someone you should know about. Why do you think Ed Buck was protected or was he? Two men were found dead in his home. Very interesting. I think the black woman basically got it right in the video clip.
Elizabeth Warren
But Betsy DeVos is just a symptom of a badly broken system. We’re up against powerful forces, and to win, we need big structural change. So here’s my plan: Under a Warren administration, the Secretary of Education will be a public school teacher.
This next tweet talks about making the Secretary of Education a public school teacher. Well, if Elizabeth Warren has her way into the presidency, she vows to hold that position for a public school teacher. How do you feel about that?
Ayanna Pressley
Those who try to divide us, distract us, vilify women of color and manipulate our words should kindly take a seat. A predictable play and no one’s falling for it. We’ve got you @RashidaTlaib
I am all for unity. There should be more love and brotherhood in our world. I hope Rashida is there for solidarity with whatever Congresswoman Ayanna Pressely needs her to be.
Tariq Nasheed
A 13 year old Black child from Albion Mich. with mental health issues, was punched, pepper sprayed, & beaten by race soldiers in the back of a police car while handcuffed. The child even acknowledged that it wasn’t fair that he was being racially abused.
This tweet is not American. I do not like watching these videos but this kind of madness needs to be exposed. Tariq Nasheed calls these kind of police officers race soldiers because as the little boy was treated horribly, he felt it was because of his race. It is alleged that the officers knew him. They called him by name and they were aware of his mental illness. Why are certain people treated differently. I have witnessed similar stories of mentally ill white folks who were handled very different. This needs to die. Incidentally, those officers were fired. We all know there are good officers out here. In honor of police week, I want to thank all the Police Officers. Also, if you know your partner is doing something like this, why do you continue to allow it? Why would you be quiet about something like this. Seriously, was this necessary to do this to that little boy?This is my question to police officers. This is wrong. What if it was your child?
Julian Castro
The recently released video Sandra Bland took of her own arrest provides the latest example of a police justification for the death of an unarmed black person being revealed as a flat out lie.
This tweet is about something most people (especially black folks) already knew about. Sandra Bland extended video doing her encounter with the police in Texas. She was murdered. She did not kill herself!
STOP BALLOT HARVESTING!
Su Hyon Dillon, 44, was arrested and charged with four counts of first-degree child rape last Wednesday in Puyallup, Washington. She repeatedly raping 11-year-old boy who played on her son's lacrosse team and was coached by her husband.
Stop Ballot Harvesting tweets about a 44 year old woman charged with child rape. As parents and guardians you must watch out for your kids. Protect them and pray over them. What is going on? Oh my goodness!
Bishop Talbert Swan
Councilman Jim Cleveland defended Hosxhton, GA Mayor Theresa Kenerly rejecting a job applicant “because he is Black, and the city isn’t ready for this.”
“I understood where she was coming from..Blacks and whites together, it makes my blood boil...”
This particular tweet was tweeted from Bishop Talbert Swan. It is about a story that turned into another story. Unfortunately this is still going on. The mayor of Georgia (Theresa Kenerly) didn't want to hire a black person who applied for a position because she claimed the city was not ready for a black person. The town is predominately white. Even when there are towns that are predominately black, white folks control city government. Why is that? Maybe they can't find any qualified black folks, right? Wait, but check out how most of these kind of places (private and public) state they have a code that protects against racial discrimination. I surmise it just looks good on paper because some obviously have that great American dose of amnesia. A councilman by the name of Jim Cleveland came to the mayor's defense. He even added that as a Christian man, it was wrong for black folks and white folks to marry. Yes times have changed but only God can legislate a person's heart.

If you've got that #FridayFeeling!
This last tweet is so refreshing and positive. I will end these Twitter Tweets with a few good brothers dancing together. You know it's Friday when you can get together with like minded folks and have a relaxing time. They look so cool, right? :0)
