Hey, Bondi! Me! List me, you incompetent toe-licking twat!

The Arizona Corporation Commission has approved the latest version of data center Project Blue in Tucson. The Pima County Board of Supervisors voted to approve the land sale of a 290-acre stretch of unincorporated land for the project earlier this year.

Very important to halt this now.

A humanitarian group that helps migrants traverse Arizona borderlands says their aid camp was unlawfully entered by Border Patrol. azluminaria.org/2025/12/01/a...

I'm proud to be a part of this powerful documentary by ASU students Jason Farmer and Cheyla Daverman. Mobile homes heat up incredibly fast, and I won’t stand by while landlords take advantage of and endanger tenants. www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6Bi...

It is truly disturbing that #SCrOTUS is accepting this case. There is literally NO Constitutional argument in favor of Trump’s position other than ‘because Trump said so’!

It’s a AZSenile-ator Kavanagh idea, so of course it is unnecessary, punitive, and impractical. We have PI laws for reason, John! We don’t need or want any more police enforcement of our daily lives, thank you. Imagine you have to bike to work in 100 degree heat, do YOU obey an arbitrary 15mph limit?

As Democrats work to harness voters’ frustrations about the cost of living in the United States, Arizona's junior Senator is advocating for a set of policies aimed at one facet of the issue: energy. news.azpm.org/p/azpmnews/2...

This is why we can’t have the best representation. How anyone accepts this job who has ANY financial responsibilities truly amazes me. We should peg legislators’ pay to the median annual income of an Arizona household: currently about $77k. Want a raise in the lege? Improve ALL our incomes!

In October, @congressmin.bsky.social and I wrote to the administration requesting information on their agreement with Iran, and the individuals being deported. The Trump Administration must provide this information to Congress immediately.

I’m deeply concerned by reports of a second deportation flight to Iran, including vulnerable individuals who could face persecution by the brutal Islamic Republic regime. The Trump Administration must follow the law and uphold due process for Iranian asylum seekers.

Showering Tucson community members, journalists, and elected officials with pepper spray and tear gas during peaceful observation and protest is another example of ICE and Border Patrol's lawlessness—conduct that is unacceptable and cannot be tolerated anywhere. tucson.com/news/local/b...

Americans are struggling to pay their bills and afford groceries, and we've got a President who is asleep at the wheel.
