Just returned from such a special trip celebrating the last month of my nieces leukemia treatment and her 5th birthday. So fortunate to be Aunt Candy and Uncle Vaughn to this sweet girl & to have Billy and Madison as my brother and sister in law!

I have two almost 5 year old nieces and both of them decided on thanksgiving to refer to my husband no longer as β€œUncle Vaughn”, but only as β€œBig Fella”. Not sure what kind of mafia they’ve joined but I’m a fan.

Oregon has over 900 elected offices up for election in May, many of them will be unopposed. If you’re interested in running for something, please shoot me an email at Candy@dpo.org!

If you’re a leftist attacking our only trans congresswoman for simply doing her fucking job, truly go fuck yourself.

I don’t know if you’re still there but the food court at the American Indian Museum is worth a stop. My favorite place to eat in DC.

Please don't call what RFK Jr. and Jay Bhattacharya are going to do medieval. It's not medieval. It's nothing like the Middle Ages. People in the Middle Ages were happy to try all kinds of things to not die of the plague and if you'd given them antibiotics and vaccines they would have loved it.

Also, god bless the infusion nurses who come to my office once a month and sit with me, give me my treatment, and talk with me.
I am better for knowing them.

In order to stay alive I have a monthly infusion treatment that costs about $17k a month before insurance. A lot of folks you know are fighting battles you know nothing about. The threats to dismantle the affordable care act are terrifying.

As an Oregonian who had a medically necessary abortion in 2021, I’m so grateful for Governor Kotek’s leadership.
