I’m a rare disease mom. We know what it’s like to be told there’s a tough road ahead & we won’t give up a fight for what we care about. In ‘24, w/less than $75k we had the largest Dem swing of any congressional district in Fla. In 2026, we’re going to win it. secure.actblue.com/donate/bhh-sm

I'm not a politician. I'm a mom who's been through hell and I know what happens when Washington forgets who they're supposed to serve. Let's build a campaign that finally includes us. Join our campaign at Barbieforcongress.com youtu.be/bju_VIl9Xoo?...

Assassins that choose public venues for their crimes don’t make those that happened behind closed doors any less gruesome or tragic. It only means the families are saved from the replaying their loved one’s death on repeat. Even behind closed doors it happened, mattered, & deserves the same outrage.

The view is a little bit different this time around but the mission remains the same.

On Monday evening, this is the text I received from Josh Weil. I posted this publicly with the statement that I stand by every single word of my statement and I refuse to be threatened or bullied.

Last week I posted across other social platforms warning of the announcement of Josh Weil’s candidacy for U.S. Senate in Fla. I failed to post here & am doing so now for those that are unaware. We should question candidates who rent 2 luxury homes, cars, & giving their SO’s $20k bonuses.

I’m not the type of person to call out and admonish abuse, fraud, and corruption on the other side only to ignore it when it happens in my own party. I refuse to sit back silently when I see that voters and donors have been taken advantage of and questions are repeatedly brushed aside.

Are we really surprised Amazon didn’t hold their ground on being transparent about the Trump Tariffs to their customers? Of course not. We are talking about a company run by Bezos who had to spend billions to blast himself off on a penis shaped rocket to prove he’s not a bitch.

One if by land, two if by sea. How about three when it comes by the dismantling of those three branches of which our very government was built. 🕯️🕯️🕯️ 250 years of Paul Revere’s Ride. Will you fight for our freedom?

People acting like federal agencies are nothing but corrupt. Are you forgetting that Trump was president for 4 years & could have had them PROPERLY audited? Are we forgetting that Republicans have had control of Congress 9 out of 13 times since 2001? It’s all BS to cover a coup.

Whether people want to admit it or not, Trump & his admin absolutely share in responsibility for what happened in DC last night. DC has the highest concentration of fed workers. Chaos and uncertainty from Trump’s actions don’t make for safe work environments.

Trump supporting teen thugs intimidate Kamala Harris supporters at a Florida early voting location and one is charged for aggressively assaulting two women with a machete. Charges dropped because they were Trump supporters. Violent extremism is acceptable as long as you’re MAGA.

It’s Primary Election Day in FL-6 and I felt like this Taylor Swift (and DisneyWorld!) inspired @LostBrosTweets shirt was appropriate.

The future of the Florida Democratic Party begins today in FL-11 as we have our reorganization meeting. Honored to represent Lake County as a State Committeewoman.

🧵I have a few predictions that I very much hope to not come true. In the next 2 years: 1. Trump’s declaration of a national emergency at the border will result in emergency powers that will further erode our rights and give him absolute power.

There are 30 million Americans affected by a rare disease. If we voted simply on health considerations, we would be the force for change and progress for future rare disease patients and families. This administration will likely set us back decades.

You cross Fuhrer Trump and he won't care if you or your family die or are harmed for prior actions you did at his command.

The places of honor during the inauguration went to the three richest Americans—sitting in front of those chosen for Trump’s cabinet. Our country has been sold to the highest bidders. They also just happen to be those that have the most access to our personal information.

Today, we honor Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and his legacy. Drawing courtesy of my 7 year old, Reese.

We resist by becoming a strong and informed community. I’m going to do what I can to fight.

DeSantis appoints FL AG Ashley Moody to complete Rubio’s term in the Senate. In Florida, she has proven herself to be a puppet/lapdog—using taxpayer funds for frivolous legal actions that are mostly stopped by the courts. She’s been rewarded today for her blind political loyalty.

Early voting for the Special Election for FL-6 begins Saturday. Here’s why I am voting for @joshweil.bsky.social

Pam Bondi is a liar but at least she found a better plastic surgeon than the rest of the Republican women have been using (and Matt Gaetz).

Thanks to the contribution to my trash, Randy Fine.

Pete Hegseth isn’t even qualified to be on the short list for this position.

In Orlando this weekend, the Florida GOP met and re-elected Evan Power as Chair. In what is *likely* a coincidence, there was a heavy increase in traffic on Grindr in Orlando this weekend.

Amy Coney Barrett just grabbed Trump by the pussy.

The moment Canada and Greenland get their first medical bill would be the moment Republicans would never hold power again. (You know, unless they decide to completely rip up the Constitution or don’t allow those socialist, un-Americans to vote).

We became complacent and common sense was overcome by fear and lies. In their quest for power, those that were put in positions to protect and safeguard our government instead sold out to a tyrant. May our Nation survive the next 4 years.

Daniel Webster is starting his term in the 119th Congress much like his previous terms—missing 2 of the 5 votes on the first day. He can always be counted on to have one of the highest absentee records.

The entire family has been sick since Christmas Eve so enjoy this late post and picture from last Christmas! I hope you all had the Merriest Holidays and here’s to a Happy 2025.

To be a fly on the wall the moment Trump realizes he’s a shadow president and has been bested by someone younger and richer than him. Yet he won’t be able to do anything about it because you know Elon and Putin have been collecting dirt on each Trump loyalist.

Florida State Representative Taylor Yarkosky was elected Chair of the Lake County GOP. His goal— “If we till the soil and make it so red that nothing purple, let alone blue, can live here, then we have already won and the policymaking takes care of itself.”

This morning I joined Florida Voices for Health for a preview of Federal Health Policy in 2025, especially the threats to Medicaid in Congress. Ready to continue fighting for Florida families in the coming year.

I’m listening live to @fpwellman.bsky.social and @jasonkander.bsky.social on Majority 54 to catch up on the latest news.

The DOGE Caucus are admitting that cuts to Medicare and Social Security are on the table. They are also considering cuts to Veteran’s Care. Remember when @RepWebster and @ScottforFlorida said they wouldn’t do these things? Both are members of the DOGE Caucus.

What is your favorite place to get news or commentary on current events that isn’t considered MSM? We’re long past the time to start amplifying alternative news sources through social media that isn’t extreme right wing.

My dad was a police officer and I’ve been around guns my entire life. The right of a child to go to school w/o fear of being killed is more important to me than my right to own a firearm. I don’t believe all guns should be banned but we have to do better. We have to do something.

Last week I had the honor of being elected as one of the State Committee members to represent Lake County to the Florida Democratic Party. Looking forward to serving over the next 4 years as we work to move our state party towards the future!

I keep telling everyone there’s no rush but they’re too motivated to keep working and trying to move forward. It still completely stuns me how supportive so many are of me—especially in the moments when where I’m internally beating myself down.

An example of the chaos my brain craves: currently reading 5 books simultaneously.

A month after winning reelection as a Democrat and only weeks from losing a run for DEC Chair, Florida Rep. Susan Valdes switches parties. There is nothing more shameful than those who turns their back on people that helped them for their own personal benefit.

Monique Worrell was unlawfully suspended as State Attorney by Ron DeSantis. She was just overwhelmingly re-elected. Today, the man DeSantis appointed, and who lost on Nov 5th, is saying he won’t work w/ transition & Worrell may not be able to take office. We resist. We fight.

Sometimes you just have to let them know you’re still not to be played with.

It hasn’t been a Thanksgiving I would have hoped for. I’m on night 2 admitted to the hospital and away from the family. Hopefully will be out tomorrow. The worst part is I haven’t been allowed to eat 😫 Hope everyone else’s Thanksgiving was happy!

As a resident of FL-6, I was again asked to run in the Special Election today and I again said I wouldn’t. The list of reasons being long and attention spans short.

If you didn’t have the balls to run as a Democrat against Matt Gaetz himself, don’t consider jumping into a Special Election to take his seat for self-promotion. We’re 100% behind @gayforcongress in Florida!

Who thinks Gaetz may now end up as DeSantis’ Senate pick to replace Marco Rubio? He will be there as a Trump plant in the Senate to cause chaos and keep the GOP delegation under Trump’s thumb.

Everyone be sure to give one of my heroes a follow. Hoping she has big plans in Florida for 2026. We need you, Val!

On 11/11, I filed to continue the fight for FL-11. Apparently, the Florida GOP Chair can’t seem to get me out of his head and had to announce it for me. In 10 months, w/o any staff & less than 1/10 of the 14 year incumbent’s funds, we had largest Dem swing in FL. We fight on.
