This is like Senators asking for Trump to release funding for their pet projects. When you campaigned for a personalist presidency you have turned yourself into a beggar seeking the King’s favor rather than a citizen who can be confident of equal treatment for all.

Please be mindful of what you’re ordering & how it gets to you. It is dangerously cold in the Midwest, and that doesn’t mean that postal workers get to call in.

Senator Mark Warner spills the beans about "the real story" of how the TikTok ban went down. Turns out, its passage had more to do with the Gaza war than China. www.kenklippenstein.com/p/tiktok-ban...

The termination of 850 Indian Health Service physicians, nurses, and dentists will have a grave impact on access to care for millions of Native Americans. Upholding our treaty obligations is not optional.

Yes, this will make people care… but for the love of all that is holy - can we give a damn about the people, the plants, the animals, more than our desire to eat chocolate? My god.

As governor of Illinois, I’ve made it my mission to make our state the best to call home including for our LGBTQ+ community. No matter who you are or who you love, everyone deserves dignity and equality. Hate has no home here.

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

I went outside to see the parade of planets. Just before heading in, storm clouds rolled in and I spotted this. 💙 In a dark world—its okay to feel overwhelmed & scared. But you are not alone. Love, joy, and kindness are all around us and we must keep them for they are acts of resistance. ✨

The tornado alert test siren just went off and it was as comforting as music. I couldn't figure out why I got teary-eyed until I realized it was relief at a functional alarm system, one that's still funded, one that still works, blaring the same way it always does on the first Monday of the month.
