BREAKING: WATCH the full 60 Minutes CECOT segment here. This was sent to me anonymously. It appears to be the segment CBS' Bari Weiss killed. www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...

Made my calls again. Have you? Let's put the pressure on every member of Congress to get back to work and reopen the government. The fact they are getting paid to do nothing while thousands are without pay, losing heathcare, losing food benefits, etc should anger every American.

Just a reminder - call your members of Congress and demand they get to work, negotiate, and end this shutdown. ☎️ I called mine this morning. It only takes a few minutes.

Wow!! This is incredible. Well done, Colorado!

During a visit to see family in VA over Labor Day, we noticed the “Farmers for Trump” signs previously filling roadsides were replaced with “Farmers for Spanberger.” Glad to see the votes followed. Hopeful a true sign of change. 🤞🏼

Way to go, Virginia!! 🎉

This is a classic form of voter intimidation—making people feel like it’s not safe to go to the polls. It moments like this where we need to summon our courage & vote anyhow. Vote in the tradition of the people who marched in Selma to secure the right to vote.

Tomorrow is Election Day! Please vote if you are able. 🗳️ I’ll be watching from the sidelines as the area I’m in has none.

While I’m not thrilled with earlier sunsets, I do appreciate that my teen isn’t having to drive to high school in the dark now. No complaints here on turning the clocks back to standard time.

Started my morning with phone calls to members of the NC House and Senate to express my opposition to the attempts by the NC GOP to gerrymander our maps further. They are shamefully trying to steal votes because they can't win fairly.

We have people in power making broad claims around certain drugs and autism that have been continuously disproven.

😎 GREENSBORO, NC - *WENDOVER EDITION* 😎 👇👇👇 Sat - 9/20/2025 - 11am-12pm Join us to protest the authoritarian regime! We'll line up on Wendover Ave in front of Costco Plaza & Staples. Mobility issues : Lot on Panera side of plaza is flatter & also parking at Staples. Bring your best signs/banners!

Welp. I was one of the first subscribers. Signed up for 3 years before it rolled out. Tonight I cancelled my Disney+ subscription. I stand with Jimmy, and for Democracy and Freedom of Speech.

Some good news - my teen earned Eagle Scout tonight!!! 🦅 Beyond overjoyed to see him achieve a goal he set in elementary school. 🥹 His hard work and determination paid off. Especially considering he crossed over from Cub Scouts to Boy Scouts in February 2020.

We're currently planning our theme for this Halloween, but last year we had a blast bringing to life a few emotions from Inside Out 2. 😁 Anyone else do family themed costumes? 2pawsdesigns.com/inside-out-2...

Authoritarians thrive on your silence — be loud — for America.

Even just “it was a drill” doesn’t make it easier to stomach that my kids have to practice lockdowns. #bangunsnotbooks

I try to keep my calls to NC's Senators calm. Today's was angry. I am pissed off at what is happening with the CDC and restrictions to vaccines and made sure both knew it. 😠

A reminder of where we’ve come in just over 100 years (less for many others) and how this administration is trying to silence women again. Read this short post by HCR and watch the video.

National parks enter their busiest season understaffed and underfunded. Morning Edition visited Joshua Tree to speak with local business owners and a park ranger feeling the impact. By @amartinezla.bsky.social and Iman Maani

Take note.

We're proud to partner with groups across the country for a day of action against the authoritarian lawlessness tearing apart our communities. No thrones. No crowns. NO KINGS. 📍 Find a protest near you: nokings.org 📞 Can't make it? Join the fight by phone: 5calls.org See you in the streets.

For our NO KINGS June 14th protest, we are also doing a food drive for Open Door Ministries of High Point, NC. Please see the list of items they need. #NoKings #CommunityCare #StrongerTogether @thegcdp.bsky.social @indivisible.org @maddow.msnbc.com @jginthenc.bsky.social @50501nc.bsky.social

RFK Jr. fired every single vaccine expert advising America—all 17 members of ACIP, which has guided safe vaccination for 50+ years. ACIP determines who gets vaccines, when, & why. RFK Jr. claims vaccine expertise itself = corruption, setting the stage to replace scientists with ideological allies.

Left vmails for Tillis and Budd. RFK Jr must resign immediately, and Vaccine Advisory Committee reinstated. The health of every citizen in our country is at risk. They shamefully voted to confirm this man for a position he is unqualified for. It's time to rectify that before further damage is done.

This. Pay attention. Cruz, trump, and others are sharing old images and lies to further inflame the situation and create unnecessary drama. This is shameful.

I left voicemails for Tillis and Budd this morning regarding California and the B.S. military parade. Reminded them the US does NOT have kings. I insisted they stand up and speak out against the felon. They took an oath to defend our Constitution against foreign AND domestic enemies. /1

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

An actual spat or just trying to distract us from other things? 🤔 Regardless, I miss having a responsible adult in charge.

Raleigh's newest playground opens tomorrow! 🎉 We had the opportunity to visit during a preview event a couple weeks ago. See all the details in this post and make plans to visit! This is truly a great new spot for families to enjoy. 💚 2pawsdesigns.com/gipson-play-...

Left voicemails this morning for Tillis, Budd, and Ross asking that they stand up for the health of the entire Country and speak out against the FDA decision to limit Covid vaccines. There is absolutely no reason to limit them. Anyone who wants one should be able to get one.

Currently loving my Buy Nothing group. It's helping me clean out random items in my house that we no longer need, but I know could still be useful to someone and may not be worth taking to a thrift store. A simple little way to recycle and help neighbors out. Win win.

My son’s #EagleScout project is taking shape! ⚜️ First and second photos were taken last Saturday at the start and end of our workday. Removed wire fencing from church pollinator garden and installed 12 new wood posts. Yesterday (photo 3) we completed framing.

This. 1000x this.

My daughter (briefly) lost her Disney MagicBand+ at Animal Kingdom earlier this year. Thankfully, we quickly recovered it. 😅 Don't do what we did. Secure that band so you don't have to worry. We have a few simple and inexpensive ways to do so in our latest post: 2pawsdesigns.com/secure-your-...

Whenever you hear conservative politicians preach from the gospel of "fiscal responsibility," remember that one of the biggest drivers of deficits lately are the Bush and Trump tax cuts, which have added nearly $10 trillion to the national debt.

Six months after winning her NC Supreme Court election, Justice Allison Riggs was finally sworn in to office Tuesday by her fellow justice, Anita Earls.

Here come the Grannies! 🤭 All the details on how we made fun Bluey inspired Granny costumes for Book Character Day. These would be fun for dress up or Halloween as well. 2pawsdesigns.com/here-come-th...

I haven't made any calls in a few weeks. I was laid off last month and have been protesting and fighting back in other ways. This morning I opened up my document with all my call scripts. Wrote a new statement on the tariffs and left voicemails for Tillis and Budd.

Wow!! Passport renewal plus passport card in 3 weeks! Not expedited. Had to mail application with old passport and photo since I was getting a passport card for the first time. Impressed with how fast this was.

Musk is destroying AmeriCorps. It looks like it’s RIP for AmeriCorps. The nonprofit that represents AmeriCorps’ state commissions which organize state-level community service programs funded by the federal agency announced that commissions in all 50 states,

Taking a mental vacation this morning and made a new video based off a blog post I wrote last summer. Have you visited Disney's Lookout Cay? What was your favorite part? youtu.be/wHHdDGduxDk?...

Happy Earth Day! 🌎 One way to help protect our planet? Recycle and/or reuse items. ♻️ Here's a roundup we put together a couple years ago for crafts to create using toilet paper roll tubes. 2pawsdesigns.com/toilet-paper...

I'm on Bluesky, Threads, & (for now) X. It only takes a moment to comment, share, and amplify my campaign as I work to keep my seat on your NC Supreme Court in 2026. #NCPol

Crafting is my happy place and stress relief. 💙 Before our spring break cruise, that included making a Moana fabric bag scarf to help personalize our Castaway Club bag. 🐚 Best part is you could do this for any bag. Full tutorial here: 2pawsdesigns.com/diy-tote-bag...
