Let's take a moment today to honor the veterans in our lives, our communities, and across the nation. Thank you for your unwavering dedication and selfless commitment to our freedom. We remember and appreciate you, today and always.

He was a proud Navy veteran who served in the Pacific Theater during WWII, and he passed away in 2019. His service, like that of countless veterans, helped shape the world we live in today and deserves our deepest recognition and appreciation.

This Veterans Day, I'm reflecting on the profound courage and sacrifice of all who have served, including my dear grandfather, Charles Harley.

The silver lining to the surrender by 8 Dems is that the House GOP must return to vote on it. Johnson must swear in Grijalva, and the discharge petition on the Epstein files must force a full floor vote. Stay tuned.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.

A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.

When will party leadership learn this lesson?

I didn’t see this coming! 🏳️‍🌈

This is a fool’s errand. Cuomo ran a terrible campaign. What’s his path?

New Yorkers are going to end up with a Republican mayor if Cuomo ends up splitting the Democratic vote.

There it is.

Republicans just BLOCKED the release of the Epstein Files.

Fair

I go back and forth with being active on here. What did I miss?

There will be lots of other fantastic speakers! Organizations that are tabling. And huge thank you to Tommy Rivera for organizing!

As Appalachians, we understand that coming together is the only way out of this mess. We have relied on our neighbors for centuries, stood side-by-side as the government tried to bust up unions and coal strikes. And we came together last fall after Hurricane Helene.

I’m humbled to take the stage tomorrow to talk about ways you can get involved locally in Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia.

Perspective is everything. Always make sure you get the whole picture and then stay open to new information that can shape opinions you’ve made or insights you’ve had.

I stand with Ukraine.

So amazing to get to see and listen to LeVar Burton! And what a magical touch when the lighting engineers changed the background lighting to rainbow lighting after we got to sing the Reading Rainbow theme song WITH LeVar Burton!

Be the change you wish to see in the world.

I’m so excited to attend both of these events next week as part of ETSU’s Festival of Ideas!

"When a clown enters a palace, they don’t become king. The palace becomes a circus."

From the official White House FB page. My screenshot. The issue of NY City’s congestion pricing is irrelevant. Referring to himself as “king” and the official White House page running with it is egregious.

Sorry for being quiet on here. I’ve been focused on a few projects.

And no, just because you have a Black friend doesn’t mean you’re all set.

Finally, this is also not the month (nor is any month) to insert ourselves into Black spaces. In other words, if the Black community says this is their space, respect that.

Because as women, we generally know that when a man says “not all men” it sends up a red flag. Of course it’s not all men just like it’s not all white people. But, it’s our job as white people to educate ourselves and do the work.

Nor is it the month (nor is any month) for white people to prove what allies we are. Saying we are allies and being allies are two different things. Stop expecting credit for being an ally. Stop expecting Black people to notice you’re an ally. And stop throwing out the “not all white people” line.

This is NOT the month (nor is any month) to ask Black people to educate us.

I challenge each of us to spend time each day this month celebrating Black leaders, reading Black authors, supporting Black owned businesses (especially locally owned Black owned businesses), sharing content from Black creators, and talking to every white person around us about what we’re learning.
