We need to be lighting up phone lines this week - state and federal offices. Leave messages. Call every day. This bill will devastate America. I hope it won’t take the passing of it for people to finally wake up to the trouble we’re in.

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women.

More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications.

I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.

Donald Trump's decision to bar the Associated Press today from entering the Oval Office was the latest, and most significant attack on the free press since he took office.

We need a strong independent media to take on Trump.

I will never back down.

Insanity: The deportation flights Trump used military jets for—that Mexico refused to accept—cost the U.S. up to $852,000 per flight to attempt to deport just 80 migrants at a time.

To compare, flights directly chartered by Immigration and Customs Enforcement cost just $8,577.

A local friend here in New Orleans just posted this on Facebook. Stay safe out there, y'all! #NOLASky

And another one bites the dust. I’m disappointed in #Target but they are now on my “do not shop” list. Choosing where and how we spend our money is one of the most impactful forms of resistance. We must hold steadfast. #DEI #InclusivityMatters

In continuation of a #timelinecleanse I present our resident chaos cat, Pumpkin, looking sweet and innocent during her nap as we begin to thaw out in #NewOrleans. #catsofbluesky #toebeans

One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.

People who are silent about their politics are silent because their political views harm others.

They harm others but they still want access to our spaces.

They still want access to you despite voting to directly harm you.

Make no mistake, your silence on political issues is LOUD & CLEAR.

For a timeline cleanse, I present my pup, Luke Skywalker, ready to come back inside after venturing out in the #NewOrleans snowpocalypse to potty. Isn’t he cute in his coat?! ❄️🐾 #dogsofbluesky

Using my energy to honor Dr. MLK Jr. and his wisdom and dedication to creating a world where all are created equal & good prevails over evil when collectively we stand to make it so. May there be light in the midst of darkness and may we hold true to these words. #mlkjr #resist #progress #unite

This is now the message when you log back in to #TikTok. This was all planned so #Trump could look like a hero and set his propaganda machine into motion. And our Congress was either too dense to realize it or they’re complicit.

I won’t be watching the inauguration. Celebrating the birth of fascism in America just isn’t my cup of tea.

I had two comments hidden on Instagram yesterday after sharing my thoughts about the #tiktokban 🤔 and the more nefarious game that is at play in the incoming administration. I’ve already been contemplating deleting #Meta platforms but also feel we need to keep fighting to educate others. Thoughts?

While we wait to see the fate of #TikTok (which I’m sure will be part of Meta), I’d love recommendations for small businesses and progressive companies to support. I’ve cancelled my Amazon Prime and want to be conscious about how and with who I spend my money the next 4 years. #neworleans #liberal

I’ve seen a lot of #dog and #cat photos since I joined #BlueSky so I think it’s only right I share my furbabies too. Here’s #LukeSkywalker with his boo basket. 🎃🐾
