Twenty years ago, when one of my best friends told me she was trans, she talked about how much better it'd be in the future, bc trans girls would able to stop puberty and transition more easily. They wouldn't be tortured by their bodies the way she had been. Shame on you, John Roberts. SHAME.

"A reporter from @thecity.nyc had overheard one agent say to another minutes before Lander’s arrest, 'Do you want to arrest the Comptroller?'"

I never thought I’d be living in a country whose government and law-enforcement officials are actively hostile to the populace and the rule of law. Latest example: Federal Agents Arrest NYC Comptroller & Mayoral Candidate Brad Lander At Immigration Court. https://youtu.be/kCvluV6HGXc

Here's the latest book in my rotation of things I read to my granddaughter via FaceTime: Jennifer Sattler, Silvie (Random House, 2009). She adores the imaginative story and the lovely, friendly art. #ChildrensBooks

When I’m near metro entrance something explodes about our heads . There is just me and the girl in black sweatshirt smoking next to me . We look at each other. I nod. She nods back. ‘Gonna be a fun night’ she says with same face in low voice and goes back inside the metro station.

Yikes! I just heard a report from the German broadcaster ARD that Iran doesn't have any air-raid shelters for its civilians. The report was about Tehran, but I don't imagine it's better anywhere else in that country. #IsraelIranWar #AirDefense

If you take one thing away from today, let it be that we outnumber them.

On this "No Kings Day" I recommend a reading of.... the Declaration of Independence.... Most of us have not read it for years, and it rings true and load at this time (more so then ever. in my life) -- www.archives.gov/founding-doc...

This is how many brilliant resisters were already in place 20 minutes before the noon start of today’s No Kings protest in KC MO. Let’s GO ‼️👊🏼

HEY BALTIMORE FOLK we're under an air quality/air pollution alert today until the rain comes! WEAR AN N95 MASK if you're gonna be outside for sustained periods of time!

Good luck to the crowd counting folks, that’s a lot to count.

Despite warnings from the law enforcement not to attend today’s No Kings rally after this mornings shooting of Minnesota lawmakers with the killer on the lose, the No Kings Rally is happening at the Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul.
