Day 2, Tijuana. I had an amazing breakfast of huevos rancheros & champurrado, (a milky melted chocolate breakfast drink). We spent time at the cultural center and market, and ate at the famous Caesar's Restaurant, where the famous salad was invented just over one hundred years ago by Caesar Cardini.

Really great news.

We'll say it again: No, 150-year-olds are not collecting Social Security benefits. #SOTU www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

It's so funny that even Florida, after five days of Andrew Tate living there, is like "you're going to jail buddy"

I didn’t want to answer any reasonable questions.

"We have to take care of our law enforcement," says Trump, standing inside the building where law enforcement were brutally attacked by a mob of his supporters that he sent to the Capitol.

“He has no mandate to cut Medicaid!” Rep. Green gets kicked out after interrupting Kennedy Center chairman Trump’s speech. Thank you for saying what we’re all thinking, Rep. @algreen.house.gov.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

I want my money to go to a program for Arab Sesame Street. Now he’s just naming programs that sound awesome. #sotu.

Day one, stops 2-4 in Tijuana (see earlier post). 1) a migrant shelter started in a church, housing Haitian migrants who began arriving in 2016. 2) Deborah's House, a domestic violence shelter supported by American Baptist Churches. There, we were treated to the best pozole I've ever had. +

Because I think we could all use a bit of positive news right now: Megan Follows, who starred in the 1985 Anne of Green Gables mini-series adaptation, is now set to star as Lucy Maud Montgomery in a new series. variety.com/2025/tv/glob...

Day one in Tijuana. First stop: Deported Veterans Resource Center. All these veterans were in the US legally, served and were discharged honorably, but got into trouble with the law (most struggle with addiction in attempting to deal with PTSD) and were deported.

I am back in the US after a brief but incredibly full trip to Tijuana where we met with deported US veterans and migrants, toured shelters and learned how we can support our migrant siblings. Also had the best Mexican food. I'll share more later. #worldwithoutwalls

I always seem to forget how much running is a mental game. I was training for a 5k when in June I pulled my hamstring (sprinting at camp) and it took months to recover, then I was sick, then I hurt my back, and the last month I had a knee injury. +

Stop reposting this. It's wrong. The news out of Yosemite is horrific, but this is incorrect. (Former Yosemite ranger here, still connected to folks in the park.) About a dozen employees in Yosemite have lost their jobs. There are still approximately 400 employees in Yosemite.

I hope your rage gives you wings today.

I am very tired of men who lie, gaslight, and then "apologize" because you must have misunderstood. This is happening in multiple arenas.

Elon musk is the greatest unifying political issue this country has seen since 9/11, fumbling this bag would be almost as criminal as his agency

BREAKING: The Associated Press sues three Trump administration officials over access to presidential events, citing the First Amendment.

A federal judge blocked Trump's sweeping executive order ending government support for DEI programs

Periodic reminder:

If you are a Black, Indigenous, or other person of color/member of the global majority, and you have a story that fits the brief- don't self reject!

Small potatoes compared to everything going on in the world, but our dishwasher broke on Tuesday and the earliest the landlord could get someone to look at it is next Wednesday. I didn't grow up with a dishwasher, but I sure rely on one now.

I grew up in a military family. There are tons of military spouses who are probationary federal workers because of moving every 2-3 years. They're now getting mass fired despite Trump's own EO in 2018 to get more military spouses working for the federal government. He's screwing military families.

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

Let's normalize checking in on one another, especially our friends who are vulnerable right now. (I have permission to share this story). Someone I know was going through some stuff over the weekend. This morning, I texted them, and they are someone who always text back right away. They didn't.

It's now TODAY! I was number 34 for my polling place so please go vote!

YES. The press should unite in boycotting his press conferences. As far as the press is concerned, if they don’t hang together, they may all hang separately.
