Since arriving in Congress in 2019 as the youngest Black woman ever elected, I’ve had 19 pieces of legislation signed into law — delivering real progress on health care, veterans’ services, homeland security, and more.

If Trump was confident that he was scrubbed from the files why wouldn’t he just release them

I’m equally obsessed with Jim Jordan ignoring 177 victims of sexual assault from Ohio State’s wrestling team.

Seeing all of the members of Congress acting like this is a win for the survivors and the American people is triggering. They all know Trump's name was mentioned several times and that he will never implicate himself. Why aren't members talking about the ongoing attempts to destroy/scrub the files..

My question is--will they try to cook up some sorta AI, weird-ass fake evidence and embed it in the files for the purpose of facilitating their Fascist blood purge?

The republicans are a criminal enterprise masquerading as a political party.
NEW: The White House intervened on behalf of accused sex trafficker Andrew Tate during a federal investigation.

“It was so offensive to what we’re all here to do, to uphold the law and protect the American people,” one official involved said.
The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

God I miss just posting about animals that need to be adopted from shelters and having my own ever revolving door of rescues. Can we get rid of this regime already so we can get back to things that fill our hearts with love?

Yesterday, i found out before my brother's funeral that my long time friend and mentor Alice Wong had passed. I wasn't able to say something sooner but her loss has really hit me.

@sfdirewolf.bsky.social was one of the first people in the disability community to befriend me and embrace me.

8) If you loved Alice, admired Alice,
you can be the Alice you want to see in this world, the Tinu, the Fiqah, et al.
Make compassion a verb, make it part of your life and how you human.
Stand up for yourself, for your communities, for everyone.
Keep Alice's legacy alive by carrying it on.❤️

‘Death remains my intimate shadow partner. It has been with me since birth, always hovering close by. I understand one day we will finally waltz together into the ether. I hope when that time comes, I die with the satisfaction of a life well-lived, unapologetic, joyful, & full of love.’

I am heartbroken to lose yet another person that helped me be the person I am today.

When I was struggling immensely about 4 years ago, Alice Wong commissioned me to make a "Suck It Ableism" pin. I'll never forget her kindness and understanding. And the opportunity to work with her.

I’ll have more to say when the sun’s up -

Death & grief are intimate companions you have as a disabled person.

The older I get, the truer that is.

My emotions went from celebrating a wonderful night out at the concert to learning of Alice’s transition & being winded.

Ommmmmgggg! No, not Alice. WHAT?!?
You were incredible, Alice Wong, and it was a blessing to have collaborated with you on projects, to have read your words and to have heard your voice, as full of life and passion and joy and rage as it was.

You made a difference—so much of a difference.

Rest always in peace, and always in power.

Bobby's immune system is still compromised as he awaits his next procedure at Reagan Medical Center at UCLA, so I was only able to drop off cupcakes for him in the pouring rain.

Our next goal to pay for two nights of his outpatient room is $460!

Chip in $10, $25, $50, $75, $100 or more below:
