“They treat empathy like a muscle, flexing it as often as possible to ward off apathy…” I’m so damn proud of @katmabu.bsky.social and cannot wait to have her moral clarity and empathy in Congress. If you’re ready too, consider donating whatever amount you can. secure.actblue.com/donate/abugh...

Yes Israel is still committing Genocide. Yes they are still using our tax dollars to do it. Nothing has stopped and with the Trump administration things are only getting worse. We must stay present. We cannot fight each other when know who the real enemy is.

I just met with Mohsen Mahdawi where he’s being held in Vermont. He was detained when he showed up for his citizenship interview. He should be released so he can become a citizen.

Today, @riseandresist.bsky.social protested - chanting "shame" - outside one Big Law firm which, as Trump's Press Secretary said, "bend the knee to President Trump." One member read short excerpts from resignation letters from several Skadden Arps emloyees who believe in democracy & the rule of law.

I am proud to join my colleagues in filing an amicus brief standing up to Trump’s unconstitutional and un-American attack on birthright citizenship. Let me be clear: If you’re born on U.S. soil, you are a U.S. citizen. That’s not just common sense—it’s the Constitution.

I cannot overstate how despicable the Mahmoud Khalil case is The Government concedes he hasn’t broken any laws But they assert he can be deported for his past, current or even EXPECTED beliefs All based on the sole determination of Marco Rubio Who is apparently now the head of the Thought Police

Anyone else notice how most of the time it’s the women who find their backbone and stand up the assholes trying to end humanity, the planet, etc?? A big thank you once again to Gov Mills and all the bad ass woman who continue straighten their spines in the face of this authoritarianist lunatic.

Imagine the level of depravity it takes to go after someone who has dedicated their life to educating and protecting children. Imagine the loss of humanity it would take to justify attacking someone for simply daring to say childrens’ lives—all childrens’ lives—are precious and should be protected.

I was honored to attend the #ConnectHER film festival in Austin. We had the privilege of seeing short films created by inspiring young storytellers. Storytelling has always been and continues to be an imperative way to give hope, change minds, and spread truth. Thank you to the #ConnectHER team.

🧵 It's appalling and unacceptable that the U.S. is continuing to fuel the catastrophic violence and suffering being inflicted in Gaza. We are grateful to @sanders.senate.gov and the 14 other Senators who took a stand today against U.S. complicity and more arms sales to the Israeli gov.

Just so we’re all clear: Congress could vote to end this tariff madness tomorrow. Every Republican who refuses to do so is actively supporting a $6 TRILLION tax hike on Americans.

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: It has come to my attention that several agencies are now offering WiFi for you to use with your PERSONAL devices. If I were you, I would NOT use that WiFi. I suspect it's a way for DOGE to monitor your personal communications.

A friend has worked for years at the World Health Organization (WHO) and developed relationships with some folks at CDC. When Trump 2.0 took office, CDC was ordered not to take phone calls from WHO. One of those my friend knew did return a call & both that person and their boss were promptly fired.

Trump White House says antisemitism is cause for deportation. That means @elonmusk is the next to be kicked out, right?? Asking for a friend. (to be clear, I think real antisemitism a la Musk and co is disgusting and what Trump is doing to Mahmoud is beyond fucked)
