Malawi, 2004. I came home from the hospital & drew a picture of siblings with #measles. It was striking; I hadn’t seen it in the UK. Now #vaccination rates are slipping, it’s back. It’s highly infectious & risks deadly complications both during acute infection & long term. #VaccinesWork. #IDSky 🧪

Looking forward to stopping by @colbertlateshow.bsky.social one last time. Tune in tonight!

I made another bookshelf like the first one, but smaller (and with a plant) #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #indiegamedev #voxel #voxelart #magicavoxel #TIHID

Donald Trump wanted a showdown, so we gave him a showdown.

Add a bit of chivalrous spice to your life with Sir Ranno and his trusty steed Siracha. Sir Ranno is my first pepper themed character and he's so darn cute! I am going to add the full on up close pic of the art too so you can see. Print and Stickers too! desert-kat-art.myshopify.com/products/sir...

#art #wip I am really thrilled with how this is going:)

Thanks to our Cap-and-Invest Program, California has now provided a billion dollars to help fleets and businesses deploy 11,600 zero-emission freight, trucks, and buses. While Trump forfeits American innovation to China, we're cementing our leadership in the green economy.

My friend works for Election Protection’s voter hotline. It’s always easier for them to help you if you are having trouble with your voter registration BEFORE Election Day. Reach out here: 866ourvote.org

Reminder: It is Republicans who have chosen to keep FEMA, the Coast Guard, TSA, and all other DHS agencies shut down. It is Republicans’ own divisions and inability to govern that has led to the longest shutdown of an agency in American history.

However you've lined up politically in the past, if you're worried about where our country is headed, you belong in this conversation. Here are my full opening remarks from last night in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Thankful to the people of Oklahoma for such a warm welcome back.

California's economy is a $4.25 trillion global powerhouse — and the nation's largest economy. Our talent and diversity powers nearly 400 billion-dollar startups with 7,250 new businesses in the last decade. We simply have no peers.

More AI piracy; take note, fellow scholars. 🗃️ "This is word-laundering on a truly industrial scale, aided and abetted by one of the world’s largest corporations. Using AI tools and a pseudonym, unknown culprits are now profiting from my work...." theamericanscholar.org/who-is-blake...

I am so happy with how my first attempt at a full scene is turning out!!! I shot this reference photo and have always loved it! #art #blackandwhite #digitalart cara.app/post/0f35c72...

California is stepping up its fight against fraud — full stop. We’re strengthening DMV security to protect Californians' identities and personal data, while cutting wait times with new QR code check-ins rolling out statewide.

Indeed—Elect more women!

I'll keep traveling the country this year to make myself useful, wherever I can, to help build a winning coalition for the coming midterm elections.

Many people are asking, so here’s my “why.” Thank you, Kansas Democrats, for an inspiring Friday evening together.

Democrat Analilia Mejia wins the special election to fill the U.S. House seat that was vacated by Democratic Gov. Mikie Sherrill.

$18.1M in fed funds for RI’s innovative researchers will help grow capacity, discover new cures & treatments, improve health care & public health, and save lives. I’m working to expanding these investments to help advance pioneering research & promote hope and healing.

The House passed our extension of TPS for Haiti with a 224 vote victory of Democrats & Republicans alike. This has been a long-fought battle to defend our Haitian neighbors & our communities, and we're not letting up. The Senate must take action without delay.

It was a loooong night - but ultimately we were able to show some real strength by preventing a clean FISA reauthorization that fails to protect Americans’ privacy. They were only able to get a very short extension that runs until the end of April. We still have a chance to get this right.

Dems running for the Senate posted some massive fundraising hauls in the first quarter. The most striking number so far: James Talarico brought in $27 million over the past three months.

Watching sports has become confusing and just downright expensive. It shouldn't take paying $1,500/year and 10 different streaming services to watch the teams you love. I have a bill to cut costs, end black outs, and guarantee local fans can watch their teams for free.

I am proud to have secured $700,000 in federal funding to modernize the library at Hostos Community College, which serves more than 6,000 students. This will be the first renovation of the library since it was built in 1990—36 years ago.

Black women are nearly 3 times more likely than white women to die from pregnancy-related complications. This is unacceptable. House Democrats are working hard to pass the #Momnibus to save moms’ lives and put an end to the maternal health crisis.

From fighting back against harmful actions by the Trump Administration and introducing meaningful legislation to recognizing a historic site right here in IL-06, here’s what I’ve been up to recently.

Ossoff: "Trump apparently promised pardons for entire WH staff, which is what you do when you run it like a casino. Maybe the West Wing is too busy placing bets on the war to care, but American are getting hurt...in Trump’s America the well-connected get stock tips & everybody else makes sacrifices"

This is welcome news for us in Southwest Washington. I’m grateful to federal partners and to our local leaders who are putting in the work to make sure this money lands where it’s needed most. My office stands ready to provide assistance. washingtonstatestandard.com/briefs/trump...

When he launched this war, the President vowed regime change and “unconditional surrender.” What has he gotten? We went from Ayatollah Khamenei to Ayatollah Khameini Jr. - and are now negotiating over a 10-point plan written by the Iranians.

Great news! Fossil fuel corruption can’t stop cheaper, cleaner, more reliable renewables, even with Trump’s little orange thumb pressing down on the scales to pay off his big fossil fuel donors. www.newsweek.com/americas-pow...

Run into ground by incompetents and looters who now need to close the Center for “repairs” as cover. www.washingtonpost.com/style/2026/0...

It was an honor to secure $750,000 in federal funds that will make it easier for seniors and people with disabilities to use transit in Washington County. 🧵

Today's decision is a victory for democracy and the rule of law. This rogue sheriff chased conspiracy theories, tried to undermine our elections, and got the ruling he deserved. Trump and MAGA's election denialism is a cancer, a danger to our democracy, and it must be stopped.

Trump’s war in Iran has been a complete and total failure. Republicans in Congress right now need to grow a spine and stand up to Trump. They will get another chance next week to vote for the War Powers Resolution. Via @markey.senate.gov

Great day on-site with Edward Norton, seeing firsthand California’s newest emission-capture tech. While tech giants look to gas turbines to fuel the AI boom, we’re seeing repeats of historical mistakes—sacrificing the air quality of working-class communities for the sake of progress.

It’s long overdue that we have an energy policy in this country that puts consumers first, EBRA does just that. By strengthening consumer protections and ensuring large energy users pay their fair share, millions of Americans will be protected from price gouging.

Great to join the American Association of Crop Insurers and the Ohio Farm Bureau for a roundtable on the critical role crop insurance plays in supporting NW Ohio farmers, producers, and growers. Thank you to Stevenson Farm in Sherwood, Defiance County for hosting this important discussion.

Having my bipartisan Preventing Maternal Deaths Reauthorization Act signed into law is a huge win for moms, babies, and health care providers in Tampa Bay. 💕 All moms deserve access to high-quality, affordable care throughout their pregnancy and beyond.
