Yeah we are!

Old Guard Democrats on the hill need to get over their prejudice against digital media and content creators if they want to amplify their messages. Get on every podcast every day. Build audiences. Create a massive digital messaging network. Adapt or get left behind.

This is like ghosts of COVID press conferences past…

Ugh. This press conference is bananas.

Let’s not be fooled by McConnell, Murkowsky, and Collins’ no votes. This is all a part of the show. #Hegseth wouldn’t be watching with his family on the side of the Senate floor if he remotely feared losing the job in front of his kids. #theater

Super into the praying part…

My mantra for the day:Today is #MLKDay That’s it. Nothing else is happening nor more important.

Absolutely! Senator Hirano is using her precious time to ask questions related to the job and his character vs simply yelling at him and not forcing him to answer anything.

Are the Democrats going to ask Hegseth any questions? Using all their precious minutes to yell at him without forcing him to actually talk about what he will or won’t do is not helpful. And the R’s are ready to help him reframe in the form of their narrative. Accountability matters. #PeteHegseth

(Word of the day)

Last full week before we brace for Trump 2.0. Rest up everyone, it's going to be long hard fight to protect democracy.

Hearing the eulogies of long passed former Presidents, words draped in reverence not disdain, is the palette cleanser I didn’t know I needed today.

Every time I read the local news and see a teacher who was awarded a $250 grant for her classroom, I understand that she spent hours of her own time applying for it. Writing it. Going through a submission process. For $250. For her classroom…

To all the people upset about Luigi Mangione being made into a folk hero. Now you know how we felt when you made Kyle Rittenhouse into a hero.

Other than the women on this list, this could look like a shortlist for the greedy millionaire villain in a superhero movie.

As long as Biden’s playing with the house money now… why not resign early and have Harris be President for the remainder of his term? That way it wouldn’t be so hideously embarrassing that the US has never had a female head of state—something 88 other countries have somehow managed to do.

It’s exciting to read that bookstores are back! If you are looking for a great book series for kids, check out A Kids Book. There are colorful & conversational books about every topic including my book, A Kids Book About Pride akidsco.com/products/a-k... #books #bookstores #kidsbooks #pride #library

Thou shalt not groove to the YMCA while marginalizing the communities that made the song iconic.

If you are in Oklahoma or know others that are with school age children, please pass this along to them. Defense of Democracy created opt-out forms for Ryan Walter’s forced bible instruction. Let’s keep getting in good trouble! #EduSky #Resist kfor.com/news/oklahom...

Jesus was at Walgreen’s again.

A government run by billionaires will never be for the people.

I’m taking advice on how to talk about what is inevitably coming our way post inauguration that is both realistic and hopeful. I occupy a space with people who can’t take the smoke as the only option, but it’s all I feel right now. What truths are you saying to the gentle souls in your lives?

Is there nobody in the GOP, or Trump's advisory team, who can look beyond Gaetz, Gabbard, RFK Jr, and Hegseth and suggest TO TRUMP not to nominate criminals, traitors, and sexual predators? (Rhetorical question, sadly. They're so craven and he himself is a criminal, traitor, and sexual predator.)

I’m not sure what I did or if this is the price of admission, but I get a lot of cat stuff here. Don’t get me wrong…I like cats. But I haven’t met a dog that I wouldn’t ignore their human for at the other end of that leash. #Boop #Dogsrule #DogsofBluesky 🐾🦴

Go Slugs! #CowellCollege #Politics

That’s awesome! Thanks for the support…you’re the best!❤️🌈

Blazer is setting the vibe for a chilly #PNW Sunday.

Interesting. This is an important data point, especially when trying to understand how so many people voted against their own interests.
