We’ve got to keep the Epstein victims and survivors centered while we pursue transparency and accountability.

Their stories must be told.

Republicans are a malignant cancer devouring America. Will we survive? I’m not as sure today as I was just 6 months ago.

The second you feel superior to others because of race, religion, sexuality, language, you are giving the animals a much higher platform.

Good night Bud & BlueSky!
What gives me some comfort is how everyone is doing whatever they can to stand up to the Monster-In-Chief, and his SlimeBags.
Get some rest everyone. The fight continues! 🦋😴🦋

I think it's time for me to take a long break from posting.

It must be nice for those of you who are new to paying attention to domestic & foreign policy. You must still be able to construct calming narratives for yourself about our collective futures.

I feel like I am going insane. Drowning.

Huge slap in the face to democracy. Democratic Colorado governor, @colorado.gov, just publicly signaled clemency to Tina peters, convicted of election interference. If election crimes have no consequences, why would the next denier stop?

JUST IN: A federal judge has barred Gov DeSantis from designating CAIR as a terrorist organization and punish those who associate with the group.

“Once again, Florida chooses political posturing over the First Amendment,” Judge Walker writes.

I don't know who will win the Senate primaries in Texas, but I do know that as a Jewish woman in America, I don't want religious zealots in either party telling me how to pray or vote. Keep your Bible out of my uterus and out of my government.
