Hello! I am a political strategist from Pennsylvania whose biggest focus has been police accountability projects, healthcare access, and gender equity issues.
In my spare moments I am an open records researcher. I have cardiac issues and rely upon a service dog.

If a system produces unjust outcomes time and time again, then we can’t *just* focus on individual cases of injustice. Because there will always be more, and never enough attention to go around for all of them. The entire system has to be reworked and/or abolished.

Epstein survivor Anouska De Georgiou: With the way that these files have been handled…I feel like I have to get through hours at a time, because it’s just too much. This is years. Every week there’s some big thing that interrupts the flow of my life, in a way where I feel completely paralyzed.

I hope Dems begin to see that moderate or progressive, AIPAC is not our friend.
They endorse January 6th insurrectionists. Yet if you so much as suggest the US uphold its own Leahy laws, no matter your record, they will work against you.

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside.
What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there?
I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

there is a whole subset of people out there who genuinely think they are pro immigrant while voting for trump and supporting ICE, and i need everyone to know that we should ignore these people and move on to the people who still have their humanity.

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things
