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.

My high school age son has a classmate just seized by ICE and she is now in a cell in Louisiana, her phone seized. This is High School in the USA in 2025. More Au Revoir Les Enfants than Ferris Bueller. School and community response already in motion.

I am deeply concerned by reports that a family, including a toddler, was arrested at the Denver Immigration Court while appearing for their scheduled proceedings. The admin is not targeting criminals or public safety threats, it is targeting families trying to navigate a broken immigration system.

These men were building us homes. The violence is being committed by ICE — masked men, no ID, no warrants. Don’t believe the rhetoric being pushed by violent criminals about ‘violent criminals’ cause it’s all BS. Call your Reps and demand they hold hearings, sanctioned or not. This needs to stop.

Trump isn’t taking his losses well tonight. Instead of throwing ketchup, he started pardoning gang members, murderers, and convicted felons. Guess he didn’t want to taco ’bout it.

Kamala Harris on “the big, beautiful bill:” “It’s an agenda...a narrow, self-serving vision of America...where they punish truth tellers, favor loyalists, profit from their power, and leave everyone else to fend for themselves.” Nailed it! 🔥

During the rollout of the COVID vaccines, the lack of testing - combined with a raft of misinformation - led many pregnant women to not get vaccinated. @propublica.org wrote this in 2022, but it's just as relevant now with RFK Jr's CDC changing recommendations for the vaccine.

Police officers are killing more Americans than then they did five years ago when they killed George Floyd and Breonna Taylor. Too many people have been deluded into believing the problem is the problem solvers, the perpetrators are the victims, and the treatment is the disease.

Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" cuts Medicaid. Cuts to health care for babies and new moms. Cuts to heath care for seniors in nursing homes. Cuts to health care for rural hospitals. Cuts to health care for people with disabilities. Republicans in Congress approved these cuts.

Trump’s pretense that he’s fighting antisemitism has always been a transparent fig leaf for using real antisemitism to destroy universities, as illustrated by his hosting on May 23 of cryptocurrency investors whose coins bear slogans like “F*CK THE JEWS.”
