NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

Wow, no. No we do not.

Last month, Sen. Deb Fischer's (R-NE) husband refused to shake the Vice President's hand. Yesterday, he tried to shake Doug Emhoff's hand. The Second Gentleman replied: "Why would you try to shake my hand when you wouldn’t shake my wife’s hand?” REPOST if you love Doug Emhoff!

I just reached out to my senators about the NIH situation. If you need to find out how much impact NIH has in your state in terms of dollars in and their economic impact here's a link: www.unitedformedicalresearch.org/nih-in-your-...

These are the news alerts I'm living for rn.

Can people who are good at this type of video editing - pull public assault video and overlay name and conviction. It would be VERY helpful to be able to post and repost SPECIFIC violent acts that Trump has pardoned.

So I’m new to the area, but if you’re in to #seattle these are some great things I’ve discovered thus far. Note: I’m a total snob about most things, so don’t keep reading unless you’re into A+ tips 🧵

“When women are free to make their own decisions about their lives and to follow our dreams, we are unstoppable.” Cecile was a force of nature. May her memory be a blessing. 19thnews.org/2025/01/ceci...

Join me & my fam in meditation at noon PT/3 ET today as we honor peace, love, art and the legacy of David Lynch. Drop a 👍🏼 if you're in!

Cecile Richards was a warrior for women’s rights, but also incredibly kind and generous with her mentorship and advice. As a former Texan, I revered Cecile and her mother, Ann Richards, and getting to know Cecile was the honor of a lifetime.

"One of my teachers at Columbia was Joseph Brodsky...and he said 'look,' he said, 'you Americans, you are so naïve. You think evil is going to come into your houses wearing big black boots. It doesn’t come like that. Look at the language. It begins in the language.'"

Ferry commuting - not perfect, but can’t really complain tooooo much.

pete hegseth doesn't want women to serve in combat roles yet he has his mother out here fighting his battles....

You may not understand why, but the healthcare insurance and PBM contracts YOU have signed for Tesla, SpaceX , @X, along with CEOs of other big companies , have more impact on healthcare costs and quality of care in this country, than anything you can do with DOGE

Boom!
