If you come for my people, you come through me.

President Donald Trump has dispatched federal agents to Portland, local elected officials said in a hastily scheduled press conference on Friday night

Portland news conference with leaders stating there are armored vehicles on the streets of Portland. I don’t believe they know which agency it is but it’s definitely federal. Here we go

I’m using a wool dryer ball for the first time. I don’t think this is a great idea because the thumping it makes, gives me anxiety thinking this might be absolutely awful for my downstairs neighbor

I'm going to try and communicate with my Republican colleagues in a new way.

5 months in: Less than 2 months after “Taco,” 2 weeks after the world’s richest man called him a pedophile… 1 week after his failed military birthday parade & the No Kings protests… 24 hrs after he was finally ordered to free Mahmoud Khalil… …he’s bombing Iran. That’s how scared they are.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

I’m pretty sure my cat just tricked me into giving him a treat 😳

Update: Over 7.2 million and counting across the country for the No Kings protest!!

What an amazing day!!

My kindergarten art skills at work on my first protest sign 😆 the newspaper articles are all about ICE and Trump

What is it about this universe that a good and decent man faces an extreme form of cancer while a hateful tyrant roams free to inflict more destruction every day?

You fought for habeas corpus, put it in your constitution, and now you’re just gonna let a game show host take it away? You’re not losing your rights. You’re handing them over.

WATCH: “That’s what this is all about.” On IG LIVE @aoc.bsky.social just called out @CoreCivic and other private prison companies for profiting off these ICE detentions after donating big bucks to Trump (and other Republicans). An all-too-familiar story for us here in Tennessee.

Beautiful piece of original art work

Last week, my orange kitty Zeddicus Catticus turned 12! I made him and his brother Fitch, birthday cakes. Safe to say they enjoyed them

Donald Trump preys off people feeling hopeless and being too scared to fight. I won't let Trump take away my hope or make me too afraid to stand tall and fight. I continue to believe that if we fight for democracy we will win.

If the president can't constitutionally sign something with an autopen because autopens didn't exist in the eighteenth century, then of course he can't constitutionally sign a bill with a Sharpie, either.

Trump walks to Marine One to head to Mar-a-Lago to play golf on the taxpayers dime. This trip will cost us $3.1 million, which could be used by USAID to feed 710 starving children for a full year.

Is your senator on this list? If yes, then you need to call them now.

The PNW is telling me that I can’t see the lunar eclipse of the blood moon 🌧️ ☁️

Got to see the month old baby 🐘 Tula-tu today. Super adorable interactions 🥰

This is not normal.

We just walked out of the state of the Union. My shirt showed Trump an important message: NO KINGS LIVE HERE. In the spirit of student protestors from the Civil Rights Movement, I’m proud to have protested and walked out with many of my colleagues. This is NOT a normal time.

Don’t let them silence us!

MY LITTLE GOLDEN BOOK ABOUT PRIDE comes out today and I'm feeling extremely Ralph Wiggum "I'm in danger" about it. It's beautiful though and I love it no matter what they say

Definitely gonna be there

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

I currently have two fully-funded PhD opportunities in my lab - both providing a chance to work on the incredible LEAF data set that we have been collecting the last couple of years (220 children followed longitudinally from 10-30 months on measures of attention and early EF). Please share!

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people: 18f.org
