“The president is trying to crush the opposition. He’s trying to crush Maine,” civil rights attorney David Webbert said.

I stand with Ukraine. I am not represented by know-nothing autocratic, trust fund bullies who awe destroying democracy. No one should be treated like Zelenskyy has just been, as a wartime leader in the White House. Awful, shameful, and dangerous.

Republicans: Shameful to be cutting workers and budgets at Togus, Veterans Affairs in Maine. “Thank you for your service” yeah, sure.

SO glad to see Trump’s head exploding today because a Governor from Maine stood up to his bull. I have issues with Gov. Janet Mills for her obstinacy on Indigenous sovereignty. But I applaud women who get to “be in the room” and clap back at his toxic, thin veneer of royal craptocracy. Dirigo! ❤️🌈

A coalition of congressional Republicans from the New York area rebuked President Trump for cuts to a federal program that administers aid to emergency workers and others suffering from toxins related to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

It's been a week. The shock part is over; the awe part never happened. Time to be throwing sand into the fascist gears, y'all.

NEW: My staff has confirmed reports that Medicaid portals are down in all 50 states following last night's federal funding freeze. This is a blatant attempt to rip away health care from millions of Americans overnight and will get people killed.

Watching them debate the missing indigenous persons act in Montana and the representative Schubert just called it a "woke DEI program."

Thankfully his amendment to kill it failed tremendously, with most of his party siding against him.

Last night 6 neighbors here decided to gather a potluck and get to know each other better. Community bonds, mutuality. Shared food, listening. We decided to invite more folks next time. It feels almost radical to reach out, belong to a place and neighborhood. And Laura’s ice cream! To be continued…
