🚨 Contact your Senators urging them to vote “NO” on the "Laken Riley Act" before Friday 1/10. Laken Riley’s death was a tragedy. But we cannot let this be used as a reason to attack immigrants and strip away their due process rights. 🧵⬇️

Husband and I were WFH approx a mile from the Capitol (NoMa). Honestly don’t remember the work day bc of the blaring sirens going down North Cap and CNN on our TV all day. Didn’t go outside bc our apt bldg is surrounded by several hotels filled by insurrectionists.

Tonight’s dinner was pozole by @sueqhaslett.bsky.social, which was a new treat for my Venezuelan family. Naturally, I took the opportunity to show everyone @padilla.senate.gov’s video on how to properly roll a tortilla. Everyone was extremely impressed. youtube.com/shorts/pwk9y...

Maybe it’s my elder millennial showing but cellphones were banned back in my jr high and HS days circa 2001-2007. When/how did this change?! (Extra choc shake and fries to those who still have their phone # from way back then)

Happening tonight — I’ve had the honor to be able to help support many families this season who were forcibly separated by this policy. This film is a stark reminder about what could quickly transpire in a new Administration, in a potential broader dragnet of policies.

So I guess we are this part of late-stage capitalism where we’re looking back at stories from the 90s to bring comfort and escape from today’s hellscape

I’ve noticed as I’m completing my departure off of Twitter that in the last 2-3 days alone it’s gotten so much more vitriolic, and I must say I think it’s turned many of our brains to mush that hopefully this site will help to mend.

In the vein of UBI might I suggest reparations for descendants of enslaved people and indigenous peoples. I would also add amdmts for establishing a separate impartial immigration court system (immi courts are still under DOJ) AND universal right & guarantee to representation for immi courts

Welcome new followers 👋🏽 I post a lot about immigration because I come from an immigrant family and don’t believe in slamming shut the door behind me but also because immigration is good for the nation. I also post about cats, which I believe are also good for the nation. Meet my cat Juan Gabriel 🐾

"While still in charge of the Senate and the White House, we must do all we can to safeguard our democracy … Sen. Majority Leader Chuck Schumer must use every minute of the end-of-yr legislative session to confirm federal judges and key regulators—none of whom can be removed by the next president."
