Later that evening, she referenced a meeting focused on equality for LGBTQ+ Americans: "Earlier, I had an insightful and important conversation with Kelley Robinson, President of the Human Rights Campaign, about the challenges the LGBTQ+ community is facing in 2025 and how we can all work together to make equality the standard. https://t.co/CvefQeIS2k" (August 1, 2025).
In her final tweet of the day, Beatty commented on funding cuts affecting public broadcasting: "The MAGA culture war just claimed another victim: CPB. This is a devastating loss—and a clear reminder that slashing funding has real consequences. Public media once had bipartisan support. Now, MAGA is trying to silence what informs, educates, and empowers us. https://t.co/KcYihpYSgm" (August 1, 2025).
