Do you know who “spent large portions of his life” with Epstein on an island? The felon who really needs to be impeached! Maybe the GOP will find their huevos. Or maybe they will cling to the carcasses sinking in their ship. It’s really up to each individual to decide where to hitch their soul.

Among the many horrors: Trump is going after all nonanglo people, going after all disabled people on multiple fronts, taking food from children, gutting housing grants, selling public lands, and more, and Albuquerque has one mayoral candidate who supports this, and one who fights back. #VoteKeller

Just a reminder this anti-steward of public lands has been nominated to lead BLM where he will be able to drill and mine and cut the old growth trees of some of our most precious wild landscapes.
Please, call your senators, Democrat or Republican, and tell them to oppose Pearce.

Hey rest of the United States!Head’s up! New Mexico oilman Steve Pearce is going to be nominated to lead the BLM. Millions of acres of pristine BLM land is vulnerable to mining & oil exploitation. Unleashed Steve will destroy our public lands. Call your reps and senators and block his appointment.

Elect politicians who put people first. Thank you @govmlg.bsky.social for ensuring our neighbors won’t starve and our small groceries won’t go out of business.
We told New Mexicans we would stand up for them, and that’s exactly what we’ve done. New Mexicans won’t go hungry while Republicans in Washington, D.C. manufacture crisis after crisis.

It looks like I’ll be headed back to DC again this week to vote another HELL NO on a bad deal that leaves millions of Americans without healthcare.
This is not what we fought for. I will always stand with the American people.

C’mon @heinrich.senate.gov and @lujan.senate.gov don’t cave for a bad deal.
Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

When the wifi didn’t function on my flight, the flight attendant agreed with me that this inconvenience was worth a glass of wine. My whole row got a glass since he said I shouldn’t ever drink wine alone. 😂

This is a direct violation of federal law and of federal trust and treaty responsibilities to our Tribal nations.
We are calling on Secretary Burgum to immediately stop this process, meet with Tribal leaders, and uphold the buffer protecting Chaco's irreplaceable cultural heritage.

ICE agents in Chicago violently detain a non verbal autistic man for being “non compliant”
He couldn’t “comply” because of his disability…they don’t care
This is not the first time they’ve gone after a disabled person
They target the most vulnerable because it’s an easy way to meet their quota
