Been super quiet..trying to figure out how to deal with news, the weather, and trying to write out of chapter 4 of the story I’m writing without freaking out is a challenging act.

Last I checked, Congress makes the laws, not the White House.

He’s foaming at the mouth to go full Gestapo.

The truth is, the government has been shutting down since January. Mass illegal firings, withholding funds, censorship, corruption. Making this fight about medicaid subsidies is fine. But no democrat should be voting to fund a dictatorship. Call your dems and tell them to hold the line 5calls.org

Prepping for a week away is exhausting

Juneteenth calls us to understand the realities of our past, celebrate the resilience and achievements of Black Americans, and align the course of our country toward its founding creed of liberty and justice for all. Wishing everyone a meaningful Juneteenth!

Like Trump Air revolutionized air travel and Trump University revolutionized higher education and Trump Water revolutionized water and Trump Steaks revolutionized meat and Trump Wine revolutionized wine and

Her parents and grandparents should be very proud.

If the United States saw what the United States is doing in the United States, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈

Wind and rain making feel like March, more then like the start of summer.

We have hope. Rebellions are built on hope.

🚨Reports around the country today that some people who showed up for their immigration court hearings were told that ICE prosecutors had dismissed their cases — and then were arrested moments later by ICE officers and taken to detention centers for unknown reasons. Happening in multiple cities.

Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” is Project 2025 in legislative form. Here’s how it quietly turns a far-right wishlist into federal law: - Sec. 10008 - Expands work requirements for SNAP - Project 2025: Pushes “moral reform” to make low-income people work more for food assistance.

The Trump administration fired Librarian of Congress Dr. Carla D. Hayden as part of their sweeping book ban efforts. One of the titles removed? Freckleface Strawberry, a children’s book about self-acceptance. Seriously, who gets offended by that?

The orange man is going after @pbs.org and @npr.org . For fear of facing the people who was in awe of Nature and explored the wonders of Nova. Who did Reading Rainbow and have a more rounded look at the world. Now he wants the people to be less than his own mindset and view of how the world is.

Did you know that for $5/month, you can get PBS Passport, a service that unlocks the vastness of the @pbs.org libraries? Feed your mind while you help PBS stay on the air.

When we reach these outposts, we’ll find allies. A spark of hope.

He was right the first time.

This is textbook narcissistic abuse. From the White House.

“He made 2.5 million today and he made $900 million. That’s not bad.” Sounds like market manipulation to me. That’s bad.

🚨 Breaking news via @wired.com: The GAO is conducting an audit of DOGE activities at DOL and other agencies - one of the first real signs of possible accountability and oversight. The report should be made public this spring. www.wired.com/story/gao-au...

The FDA has halted a fucking shit ton of research! 🧵

This is the literal destruction of knowledge. Mississippi libraries are being ordered to remove academic research on race and gender from library databases. mississippitoday.org/2025/04/08/m...

When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn't become a king, the palace becomes a circus. -Turkish proverb

Is willfully destroying the economy part of the president’s official acts or does it count as a prosecutable unofficial act as Congress has the power to levy taxes?

Trump is handling the global economy with the recklessness of somebody playing a low-stakes poker tournament with their buddies six beers deep

FOIA offices are required by law. Once again the Trump administration is a bunch of lowlife criminals.

Let’s go even bigger — our goal is to get 3.5% of America in the streets. Some media outlets are reporting only “tens of thousands” participated, but that’s no accident. Downplaying the turnout is a tactic to suppress momentum. But you were there. You saw the crowds.

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

Yet another rapid unscheduled disassembly for Musk, this time on Twitter/X. For a super genius god of all things, he's really bad at most everything.

Wow, the terrorist is aware of what happens when you lose the house. Second president is scared. Boo hoo.

We're going back to the Hill next week--make YOUR voice a part of it! Use the QR code in the attached flyer to tell your representatives how you feel about foreign aid and the actions of this administration. The deadline is Tuesday night, April 8.

NEW: No fewer than 10 principle scientists at NIH investigating emerging infectious diseases and neural disorders were among those fired by RFK Jr. today. One is an esteemed scientist awarded for breakthrough research into the causes of Parkinson's disease. By me and @emilymullin.bsky.social:

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.
