It's that time of year. Happy Passover to my friends and colleagues who observe and celebrate. I, myself, am going to a #Passover dinner tomorrow night and I bet it's going to be delicious. #Judaism #holidays #Israel

Looked to me like there were about 2000 protesters peacefully demonstrating against what our current president and his cabinet are doing to our country… I was glad to be a part of it and it was great to see so many fair-minded people peacefully protesting #politics #democracy #trump #musk #doge

The IRS unit that audits ultrawealthy earners has lost 38% of its employees this year. This will starve the government of revenue by making it easier for the rich to evade taxes — which the top 1% already do to the tune of $163B a year. See what DOGE is really about?

Republicans in Congress are hoping you won’t pay attention to them for the next 36 hours. Why? Because they're pushing through their unpopular plan that gives tax handouts to billionaires and billionaire corporations and leaves everyone else in the dirt. youtube.com/shorts/RZ-nl...

Former #congressman @adamkinzinger.bsky.social encourages us to demand our elected #representatives - especially #Republicans - to hold #townhalls and interact with their #constituents. That's why I'm emailing @repdavid regularly. So far, he hasn't replied. Maybe he's #chicken 🔥

The Hell continues for all of us who value #science, building a just world and creating equity in all forms. I am disgusted by the policies and actions of our current #Administration and hope elected officials and most people start fighting for what’s right. #democracy #activism #power

So #BonnieRaitt herself gave the audience permission to take #video and photos at the end of her #concert last night in #Phoenix. The very last thing she said about “not giving up” refers to the state of our #government and #politics right now. #music #blues #rocknroll #ballads #freespeech #divas
