Today around 2:05 PM, eastbound on HWY 518 in SeaTac, WA, my husband & I were tailgated hard by this driver. We flipped each other off. We changed lanes, he races away, slowed & cut across traffic, rolled down his window and screamed “White power, b*tches!” while throwing up a Nazi salute.

I spent the last hour in the lobby of my doctor's office in Cap. Hill (Seattle), talking with an 80-year old farmer who lived on Vashon Island. Turns out she grew up TWO BLOCKS from where my family now lives, and her school is now our Safeway.

I love moments like this, especially now. 🥹

Does @colinmochrie.bsky.social like hugs? Or, you know, words of deep, deep appreciation?

Because I would very much like to give him both, whenever possible.

New Yorkers giving ICE the welcome they deserve has me thinking New Yorkers just wrote future Broadway hit, ‘Community Service: The Musical.’

Let's do Seattle next.

Hiring managers & boards: let’s talk about the knee-jerk side-eye toward “short stints” on resumes.

Too often, brief tenures trigger lazy assumptions - “flaky,” “disloyal,” “undisciplined.” That’s bias, not truth. 👇🏻

Re-listening to The Superhero Complex podcast (named one of the best podcasts of 2022) by David Weinberg & produced by Novel. Seattle folks - remember Phoenix Jones? 😂

If people in power aren't using their power to directly, tangible benefit the people most at-risk in their jurisdiction, they should no longer be allowed to wield that power.

Dems (especially) included.

Excited to speak to a room full of leaders at next month's National Conference on Student Life in Atlanta!

👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
We're heading to the National Conference on Student Life in November to help student leaders flip the script: leadership doesn’t just live in the White House or the Capitol — it starts in your city hall, your school board, your community. 👇🏻

The shutdown blame game is in full swing.

Here’s the bullshit spin taking place instead of fighting for Americans... something both parties seem to forget is the goddamn point. 👇

Remember when a certain president promised to "bring back free speech"? Turns out, "free speech" for them just meant "the kind of speech we agree with." What a shocker. 🙃

They cropped the screenshot of their names because, at the end of the day, they are cowards.

🤡 David Preston (Safe Seattle, failed Seattle candidate)
🤡 Joel Manning (Hi-Line Auto in Burien, failed Burien candidate)
🤡 Trevor Gage (Keller Williams / Gage Group Real Estate, failed Burien candidate)

Joel Manning (Hi-Line Auto), Trevor Gage (Keller Williams/Gage Group Realty) & David Preston (Safe Seattle) are still cyberstalking me, 5 years after I left office.

It would be great if the little guys could put an effort towards actual issues, but... 🤷🏻‍♀️. I guess strong women scare them.

Our politics seems to be entering a phase of "right supremacy" where only the lives of right-wingers have value. Assassinating the leader of a state legislative body in her own damn home was business as usual, but all of America has to have a reckoning if it's a far-right online influencer.

I’m told Matthew Dowd has been fired by MSNBC after his comments about the assassination of Charlie Kirk earlier today.

Both of the co-founders of Turning Point USA died from things that were preventable, but which they mocked and urged this nation to ignore. Bill Montgomery was killed in 2020 by COVID and Charlie Kirk was killed in 2025 by gun violence.
