Lija, only the j is silent

I got dual citizenship along with my father (a WWII refugee) in 2017. I get texts regularly from friends exploring how to do it, especially this year. I don't think many Americans understood the importance of a backup plan until now. The exception is my Jewish friends. They've always understood.

She will always be my favorite senator because she's never afraid of speaking the truth.

Do we know who the others were?

Just horrifying 💔

I'd vote for Latvia if I could, but since I can't -- go Sweden!

Beautiful night at Allianz Field! #mnufc #coyl

She's studying hard, having a great time, and loving it!

The cost of my daughter's education at McGill keeps going up. But still I'm grateful that she's there and not going to college here in the US.

Insulin. You're going to have to send insulin.

Because paying the most for medications wasn't enough; he wants us to pay even more. Fuuuuucccckkkkk.

A new verb just entered the collective vocabulary: To Tanya.

Good news for my colleague, Sam, but it's still being appealed by the administration.

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

I've worked at the White House for both Democrat and Republican Presidents and I've never seen this kind of mishandling of classified info. It's sloppy at best and puts the military involved in these sensitive operations at risk.

Let me explain why. 🧵

So what are we calling this, Houthigate? Yemengate? Signalgate?

Parkview Avenue residents file emergency injunction against St. Paul to save their trees Thirteen trees had been scheduled for removal on Monday.

By Como Lake, four Parkview Avenue residents have filed for an emergency injunction against the city of St. Paul. Their goal? Stopping the city from tearing down 13 mature trees on Monday. By Friday evening, the city asked the contractor to stand down. www.twincities.com/2025/03/21/p...

This bill screams Jeremy Munson.

👇🎯 The public isn't going to understand this, unless the presidents of R1 universities around the country <loudly> & <collectively> get out into the public square & start explaining this & calling out the existential threat to the entire 🇺🇸 university system. The silence is deafening right now.

Agreed. I was just being snarky because this all sucks...

No they're coming for the globalists first. Oh wait.

I'm sorry to hear it. I hope you can go to something with friends or other family. It really does help to be with community.

Awesome sign, go mom! 💙

Aww, thanks! I'm so grateful to have had this day with my dad. The Russians shot at him in his mother's, my grandmother's, arms as they were fleeing their home in Latvia in 1944. To stand with him and so many others in solidarity against Russian aggression today was powerful. 🇺🇦🇱🇻

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

Yes! Find a protest, any cause that you believe in, and go. Took my 81 year old, WWII Latvian refugee father to his first ever protest today in support of Ukraine. He cried most of the rally. It was food for my soul.

What percent of the US population is white, cis, Christian, right wing, non-immigrant, male? Seems like a losing strategy to me, but what do I know as a highly educated, liberal, Jewish, daughter of an immigrant.

As my 16 son screamed, sick goal!!

Wow, now that's a goooooal!!!! #mnufc

Moving rally at the Minnesota State Capitol today calling to defend freedom from the USA to Ukraine! 🇺🇦

Mine too (at lex/larp)! I was told they did it to make room for 300 new products... that are coming in November. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Finally a reason that makes sense!
