Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

It was a brilliant move for Bernie to speak at Coachella last night. Meet the people where they are and spread the message there. We need more of this. The constitutional crisis is here. Democrats must be on the offensive and taking over the narrative every damn day.

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

Welcome to April. Join the World Administrators Alliance in this year's April Desk Escape. It's a walk- 3 times a week, at least 20 minutes, and escape from your laptop, your desktop, your conference room.. You get the idea. #AprilDeskEscape

Note to editors and producers: If an executive order demands action that is illegal or outside of the president’s authority, then you should not describe it as ordering something. You should say it seeks to achieve some outcome and then note it is illegal or beyond the power of the president.

Prep for another section of #WorkReadyNH starting Mon. #GBCC #keeplearningkeepgrowing

This morning I woke up and said,Thank you... I mean I said,Thank God for Ben-Gay! And Ibuprofen. Haha #Saltys5k training #Maine

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

Prep for Summer visitors, hopefully. #Maine #Canada

Maine has become ground zero in a national culture war over the rights of LGBTQIA+ students after President Donald Trump confronted Gov. Janet Mills last month about allowing transgender athletes to compete according to their gender identity.

Sojourner Truth fought slavery through powerful speeches, activism, and legal action. Her “Ain’t I a Woman?” speech challenged racial and gender oppression, and her legal victory in freeing her son was groundbreaking. 164 days to Slavery Remembrance Day. #CountDowntoSRD

Let’s go for it! Tell everyone you know to join @bsky.app and TOGETHER let’s send them packing

Bernie is on FIRE!🔥

On my way to Charm City from Chocolate City.. so many memories

Trump's in full retreat today as his poll numbers slip: He convened the cabinet to limit Elon after voters pressured Congress. He delayed the tariffs b/c the market dropped out & created fears of a recession. He's losing in court b/c DOGE didn't follow the law. Keep fighting.
