I love wit and wisdom. I am antiracist, antifacist, progressive, antimean, antistoopid. I enjoy food, humor, cooking, beer, podcasts, baseball, gardening, good trouble, Detroit, Michigan. I will never stop exploring and learning.

ICE is inflicting a lifetime of trauma on families. And it’s being carried out in the name of the United States of America.

My friend Kristina and I were driving down the coast from Astoria and pulled off the road and ran to the beach when we saw these colors! Cape Kiwanda at Pacific City, Oregon. #BlueSkyArtShow #Evening

Meanwhile, CEOs make 280 times the typical worker today.

The system is rigged.

Justice KBJ is a brilliant strategist. She is working the rules to compel timely review of the stay in the SNAP case by both the Circuit Court and by the Supreme Court. This is why knowing which SCOTUS justice has supervision of the Circuit you file in is essential.

Noem wanted to buy Spirit Airlines planes - except the airline didn’t own them DHS looked at buying the planes from Spirit Airlines, according to a report

Kristi Noem ordered ICE to purchase ten Spirit Airlines jets for deportations. Two problems: Spirit doesn’t own the planes, and they don’t have engines. Has there ever been a more incompetent administration?

FACT FOCUS: Trump says Thanksgiving dinner will cost 25% less this year. His numbers are misleading This is misleading. While Walmart's 2025 meal basket costs about 25% less than the one from 2024, that's because it offers fewer items and different products that make it more affordable.

Last night was a thumping from coast to coast. Across the country, voters rejected chaos and cynicism – and chose leaders who are focused on the cost of everyday life.

AOC: I have to tell you, in my traveling across the country, I am hearing and have been seeing consistent things from everyday people. And it is that they are terrified, they are frustrated, they are angry, and they are shocked by a president violating the values that we hold dear

β€˜Very painful,’ former Miss Hawaii fights to stop her husband from being deported Cheryl Bartlett, Miss Hawaii 1986, plans to hold a peaceful rally after her husband, a native of Brazil, was taken by ICE agents a week ago.

Former Miss Hawaii Cheryl Bartlett is legally blind and depends on her husband Rogerio Araujo, a native of Brazil, for her care. They've struggled for 17 years to get US citizenship for him, and he was recently kidnapped by ICE and faces deportation.

Wynett Guy’s race for Southfield City Clerk is one of so many consequential races across the state today.

That’s why I’m standing with her to make sure to remind people there’s still time to vote for her as a write-in.
