Started my latest book last night. Read "Globalization and Its Discontents" by Stiglitz about a decade ago, and highly recommend it.

If we do not have a chance to learn from our history, we are doomed to repeat it...

Today would have marked the 53rd anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Tie up your laces, we have a lot of work to do and the courts aren't going to save us...

Minnesota we are with you ✊️.

Proud to be recognized by 5280 Magazine again this year for my efforts to fight for workers' rights across the state.

I'm running for Colorado House District 6 because the struggle for civil rights continues, and it's now more important than ever to have a candidate with a track record of fighting for them - hard. Iris4colorado.org

At the annual MLK Marade. Reminder that not only is the struggle for equality ongoing, but that we must recommit with passion because all around us our rights are being dismantled by a fascist president who just this month said passage of the Civil Rights Act was bad. We need fighters.

Raised over $20,000 in 24 hours. Thank you to everyone who donated! Please help keep the momentum going. Donate through Actblue or iris4colorado.org.

Today, I am announcing my candidacy for Colorado HD6. Backroom deals. Dark money. Luxury retreats in Vail. That’s how nothing ever changes. I am running to break the cycle and put everyday people back in charge.

Closed the X account. It was time. Elon Musk sucks.

Why do I read my phone at night? Makes me a want to throw up before bedtime...

Finally did it. Shut down the X account. Good riddance.

Well, this is an interesting, euphamistic way of calling Kristi Noem a liar. I would have stuck with plain English myself...

Another oil war in the name of democracy (sigh). Because that last one in Iraq went oh so well...

With the next United States Senadora from Colorado Senator Julie Gonzales ❤️!

I worked with Faith on POWR for years and got to know her well. Fighter for women. Terrible loss. Rest in peace Faith. You will be missed 💔.

It was a true privilege to be part of this panel just now with intellectual freedom and first amendment fighters Michelle White, Becky Calzada, Carolyn Foote after a powerful showing of The Librarians Film at the Sie FilmCenter. Ban book bans.

Oh goodie - Monday. Time to dust off the wrecking ball and start ruining my workplace for the week. Ladies, any other ideas about what we should ruin? I've got a couple ideas...

Weak AF dems. And everyone knows what I am talking about. It's like Negotiating 101. Know your opposition's likely tactics and be prepared. And don't take a position you won't defend, because you lose bargaining power and credibility down the line. I swear you are trying to lose the 2026 election.

This time, the culprit is the former Oklahoma Superintendant and State Education Board. They stripped our client, Summer Boismier, of her teaching license for sharing a QR code for the Brooklyn Libraries. But Summer is a civil rights and 1st Amendment fighter, and I am honored to be by her side.

October 21st, I had my first arguments before the Colorado Supreme Court. My client, Mary Moreno, was fired by Circle K for pushing an armed burgler away. Circle K argued that at-will employment is so strong companies are entitled to fire employees even if they acted in self-defense. We disagreed.

Blucifer says support your tsa workers and air traffick control employees by negotiating to extend healthcare subsidies oh Trump and his senate pals. And Blucifer does not f*ck around.

Of course he is...

Nothing says more about how greed has corrupted our economic policies and politics than a Musk trillionare. Shows the utter failure of our officials, and the Supreme Court with Citizens United, McCutcheon. Meanwhile, 42 million Americans face hunger bc Reps want to jack up healthcare premiums.

This administration "allegedly" can't find any money during the governmeng shut-down to help feed millions of American kids, but somehow can find plenty of money to have ICE agents chase kids down, incarcerate, and deport them. Colorado, don't let's not have a repeat of Nov. 5 of last year-go vote.

In the spirit of Halloween - Don't Ghost the Vote! Boo-ing is not enough, protesting is not enough. Get out there Dems and vote, vote, vote! It's a lovely weekend for early voting. Election Day is Tuesday (Nov. 4). Don't be a scardy cat - vote now!

Yup.

I way over bought candy this year (again)! Did no one else have parents run out of candy when you were young and drive around looking for you while you were trick-or-treating because they needed refills? I am scarred for life and will never stop buying too much 😅! Happy Halloween Everyone 🍬🍬🍬!!!

While I hope all are having a nice Halloween, I thought this was so messed up. Deporting kids who are trick-or-treating is completely f*cked up. What is wrong with people? Next they'll dress up as Santa and have ICE steal kiddies off their laps for Christmas.

Just spotted this little guy!

Resistance starts today - not next year Colorado! We have local elections right now. Get out there and vote!

Halperns Doing the No Kings Protest in Denver (including 88 year old dad)! Vote, Vote, Vote - including now in next month's local elections!!! w/ @galiahalpern.bsky.social

Just start the lawsuit already. The folks in DC and Puerto Rico want to see how it all turns out.

Congratulations to my inspiring colleagues Ciara, Crist, and Omeed, with the help of Siddhartha and Dylan for this astounding result. Our clients should not have suffered through this trauma, but the jury heard them. Their pain and accountability matter. www.denverpost.com/2025/10/17/d...

ICYMI: “And now, a response from the leader of the frog resistance...” 🐸 🎵 #Colbert

Getting half a million dollars in medical bills for breast cancer treatment sure brings some perspective on the government shutdown.

Proud of this result for our client, Terri Lesley. Shecwas fired overctwo years ago. But the amazing community in her hometown of Gillette, Wyoming stood by her. Equality and the First Amendment are not a red/blue or conservative/liberal issue. They are shared values across our great nation.

In recognition of Banned Books Week, make sure bans don't win and dive in!

With Azra Taslimi and Stephanie Wise trecking across Eastern Wyoming. Heading to Gillette for our mediation on behalf of Terri Lesley, our hero client, who was fired from her job as library director because she refused to ban books. #banbookbans, #lovelibrarians, #ala

Power and ultimate control. Canceling late-night shows. Silencing the press. Threats of war against U.S. cities. Using force against peaceful protesters and journalists. Now Trump is demanding Bondi prosecute his political opponent.

Where's the outrage against straight white men who subscribe to "gender ideologies" that result in domestic violence? The largest number of police officer fatalities are caused by them. Women get beat, shot, and killed every day. Yet silence... www.nytimes.com/2025/09/18/u...

The removal of Jimmy Kimmel from on-air because of F.C.C. threats is another sword in the heart of the First Amendment today. The cognative dissonance in MAGA land is notable, but not really a surprise, given that free speech was never the goal, enforcing cultural and intellectual hegemony is.

My colleagues and I at Rathod Mohamedbhai are honored to stand with the 18 courageous women who filed this class action against the County and law enforcement leadership. They were subjected to illegal naked strip searches for sexual gratification — a clear violation of their constitutional rights.

Inspiring gathering tonight I helped co-host for David Seligman (@daveyseligman.bsky.social) with Council Member Sarah Parady, Jenifer Rodriguez, Sofia Solano, and Anne Shaver. This is who we need for Attorney General. We can do this! Unprecedented record fighting for workers, tenants, and patients.

Happy Labor Day. Especially to all those whose work has been elided or diminished, but who nonethless have played an integral role in the prosperity of our country.

Filed another lawsuit in Texas. It's so frustrating I have to keep returning, but I couldn't be more proud and inspired by my client Rhea Young. There are brave, good people everywhere fighting for our rights. share.google/FpmX9RmhSeRu...

Corporate America’s playbook: 1) Exploit workers to maximize profits 2) Use profits to buy Congress 3) Use Congress to pass union-busting laws 4) Use these laws to further exploit workers 5) Repeat Let's break the cycle and keep building back a powerful labor movement.

I'm thrilled to be co-hosting a fundraiser for my dear friend David Seligman - a bold, progressive candidate for AG - someone who’s ready to fight for the 99% and not the powerful elite. This is a chance to support a real fighter — someone who’s not afraid to challenge big money and corporate power.
