Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.

Liz Stein, a survivor of Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse, gave some important and powerful advice to other survivors of abuse - tell someone, if they don't listen tell someone else, do not remain silent. Her courage is incredible.

DEAR MEN, YES YOU. LET THIS SINK IN Love this guy 👏

CPTSD is going to howl at us that we need to figure things out in dysregulated moments when we're the LEAST equipped to think critically or long term. Moments of dysregulation are NOT when we need to be making decisions-- they're moments we need to soothe & stabilize. That's it.

This is a powerful interview with Epstein survivor Jess Michaels — one that everybody should watch.

Awwww ❤️❤️❤️

My Dad always said 9 out of 10 times if you listen to your gut feelings, you will be right:

We can’t wait for heroes. We must become them.

This isn’t just politics. This isn’t just narcissism and cruelty. This is spiritual warfare. We are in the darkest of times. Empaths, light workers, healers, and other spiritual people are exhausted trying to hold the light, but we will persevere. Practice good self care. We got this.

2025 feels like being awake during surgery

Project 2025 in full progress. Remind your family, friends, co-workers you know of their support for this regime. They can't say we didn't know. That doesn't fly anymore.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy. I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

What a bunch of cowards and frauds. 😡

True for friendships and family members too.

During the 12:00 hour ET, I will call for H.Res.537, Impeaching President Trump, to be brought to the floor for a vote. Tune in to @cspan live by clicking here: www.cspan.org

This is horrific.

We got him. Providing an update on the manhunt momentarily. m.youtube.com/watch?v=RxT-...

Disgusting but not shocking. 😡

Meaningful progress in trauma or addiction recovery is almost always accompanied by grief & anger. Feeling grief & anger does not mean you're doing it wrong. It means you're growing out of a past version of you, & have raised your standards for what you deserve & will tolerate.

Vance Boelter is a suspect in the Brooklyn Park shootings of two Minnesota state elected officials and their spouses and is considered to still be in the Twin Cities area looking for a way out. If you see something, say something.

😡😡😡

I am horrified, saddened and outraged.

😡😡😡

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Truth!

If you say Pride month makes you uncomfortable, imagine how LGBTQ+ people feel around you.

Next time someone in Congress glibly dismisses your need for healthcare, remember that they have some of the best healthcare in the country. And it was paid for by YOU.

This is pure evil. 😡

Now I’m worried for Canadians. This reminds me of the tRump administration playbook. I hope I’m wrong.

I've spoken with a few Canadians who have given similar words of concern for the U.S. situation. It seems that most countries either pity or hate us now. How far our country has fallen under the rule of the twice impeached, thrice married, sex assaulting, convicted felon.

True. It seems like those who have suffered the most have the kindest hearts.

I was OK paying taxes for programs that benefit many. But not OK with paying taxes for the 1%.

The inescapability of certain dynamics & personalities on the national political stage-- particularly pathological narcissism & gaslighting-- can be triggering as hell to trauma survivors. But we can't let it derail our individual recovery. You are worthy & needed.

THE most important political issue facing us now is our corrupt campaign finance system & Citizens United. As long as Musk, AIPAC & crypto money can buy politicians, we’re not living in a democracy. We must end billionaire control of our politics and publicly fund elections.

Unfortunately this viral meme is not true. This is a trans hotline. There is no new LGBTQ+ hotline. Fact check, people!

The way we were treated at Delaney Hall is almost unbelievable. ICE shoved me, manhandled @repbonnie.bsky.social, and arrested Mayor Baraka. They disrespected us and tried to stop us from conducting the oversight we’re elected to do. But we’ll never back down in our fight for what is right.

ICE is the Gestapo. Full stop.

Well done Prime Minister Mark Carney 🇨🇦💪 #Cdnpoli

Fresh out of ICE detention, Columbia student Moshen Mahdawi stands up to Trump and his fascist Brownshirts.

“I loved and supported Aaron as my son, and now I love and support Airyn as my daughter. I don’t know what the big deal is,” Robert De Niro told CNN in a statement. “I love all my children.” www.cnn.com/2025/05/01/e...
