Friendly reminder: TRUMP owns this shutdown. Don’t let MAGA rewrite the narrative.

Because it happens, you nitwit

some jerk faces broken into my pappy's car, so if you'd like to buy some earrings, today is a great day to put in an order and cheer him up. also no one has bought the tiny pairs I hand painted, so I am putting it a word for those too. 😂 www.etsy.com/shop/EshkanH...

Me in war torn Chicago:

I really wish Speaker Jeffries hadn’t praised Eric Adams. I haven’t forgotten or forgiven Adams for slashing NYC library budgets just to give more money to cops.

I’m horrified by the shooting and arson at a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Michigan this morning — and praying for those attacked as they were attending their Sunday services. This is beyond heartbreaking and unacceptable.

Gun violence is tearing communities apart across America. The scale of this horror is unimaginable. Our leaders MUST act now—before another community is shattered and more lives are lost to a crisis that we know is preventable. Text COURAGE to 34131 to join the fight.

Pelosi needs to pass the torch, and not to her daughter:

I wonder if the people who dropped hundreds of dollars on Kamala Harris tickets just to heckle her even thought about donating those funds to Palestinian relief charities? 🤔

Arizona’s 7th Congressional District (which includes one of the busiest ports of entry) deserves a voice in Congress immediately.

Breaking my rule about Substack for this specific story. Denying amputees appropriate mobility aids is not just cruel, it can be deadly. Ill-fitting prostheses can cause sores which can become infected. They can cause musculoskeletal damage. People don’t just update aids because they want new ones.

Sick and tired of both leftists and MAGA leaving disgusting comments in any post of mine that’s positive about VP.

My President looks AMAZING. #KamalaHarris

Kamala Harris wouldn’t be declaring war on American cities.

Trump is sending in troops to Portland and yall can’t get off your bashing Harris BS. Folks really don’t learn

There are credible reports that federal agents may be replaying the 2020 playbook and surging into Portland with the goal of provoking conflict and violence in my hometown. I am in close contact with state and local officials to monitor this activity.

My lawyer said today that the absolute max I could expect from my car accident settlement is probably around 50K. There’s no point in suing because getting money out of someone who doesn’t have it is impossible

Libraries and librarians are wildly stressed out right now. Make sure you thank them. Many of us are waiting on projects we’re not sure will be funded, some colleagues I know are staying in their job month by month (because of the uncertainty of funding), and book banners are relentless.

Called Mike Johnson’s office to ask him to swear in our new Congresswoman

My many times great granduncle married the aunt of the King of Scotland. Wild! #genealogy

Adelita Grijalva tiene todo mi apoyo. Mike Johnson es un cabrón y puede bésame el culo. ¡Vámonos, Adelita! Si ella puede ✊🏻✊🏻

I’m telling you, there’s just not enough outrage about the craven actions of Speaker Mike Johnson.

I am so very glad I retained an attorney for this car accident.

Military service is about courage and sacrifice. That’s what my father, a Marine, and my mother, a Navy veteran, taught me. But awarding medals for the massacre at Wounded Knee is cruelty, not honor. And reaffirming them today only deepens the injustice. (1/2🧵)

What people should not do is underestimate a Latina from Tucson, much less a Grijalva. She’s not afraid of a fight

Very, very bad optics to slow walk the swearing in of Arizona’s first Latina Congressperson. It’s the Epstein Files.

If this isn't the America you knew then you've never really known America.

I had a nice nap in the MRI machine

Awkward moment when I accidentally walked into a medical facility without my mask. I freaked out but remembered I had some in my purse Today has not been one of my good days

I want to point a very important detail of this: Jeffries is holding a press conference trashing Trump. And only CSPAN is carrying it. And that is the problem with America right now. The only place Democrats get any press coverage are places where no one watches.

Thank you ALL for your concern and aid during this truly terrifying time. Like many Black and brown professionals, I’m currently amidst the precise professional retaliation so many of us warned of, ahead of Election 2024—my professional consequences will be revealed mid-Oct. This is the fight. ✊🏼✊🏽🖤

Retail/hospitality workers are not paid enough to deal with this shit.

I’m at $150/$800 Im panicking because I spent all my money at his last appointment and he NEEDS this procedure. Please share. Please. He’s my family.

Currently hunkered down in my PT’s office because of monsoon with hail

I love Ken Burns, I think he is one of the best documentarians in America. Now he's tackling The American Revolution, a war most people don't know lasted nearly a decade and featured soon to be Americans from all walks of life. A decade in the making, this is a not miss for American history nerds. 👋🏾

Lmaooooo

Just a reminder: Democrats can’t shut down the government Republicans hold the majority #TrumpShutdown

Emergency ask. It is always so humbling and not in good way to constantly be in financial crisis, especially when I look at all the work that I do. We are at risk of losing our housing and need to come up with 3 months rent by the 1st, which is an impossible ask. ko-fi.com/johnniejae/g...

I love them. #XFiles

This administration perpetrates multiple Watergates a day, all while making everything we need more expensive. Like is the ‘golden age’ in the room with us?

There's no reason nor sensibility. He's turning the Federal Executive Branch into the Wild West to take down ANYONE in a political party he doesn't like - citizens or otherwise. He's giving himself the Green Light to go batshit on No Kings Day. He's afraid. We must hold on til midterms.

I found out that one of my close relatives was a state senator for several decades, which blew my mind. Unfortunately, they were apparently a bit of an asshole.

My MRI is tomorrow. I’m nervous they won’t find anything and then I’ll feel all gaslit by my own body 😭

Kamala’s 107 Days Chapter: 104 Days to go Jill Biden questions VP Harris loyalty Biden’s team mismanagement of his schedule. Having your boss’s wife question your loyalty is nasty work if we’re being honest.

Children are dying preventable deaths in Africa because USAID funding was cut. Americans are terrified of losing their healthcare, food assistance & more. Over half can’t afford a basic standard of living. Why does Argentina get $20 billion dollars?!?
