We need all US reps to follow Rep. Doggett’s lead! Call your’s and ask them to call for the protection of the US citizens on the Flotilla.
Those aboard the Global Sumud Flotilla, including my constituent Greg Stoker, are saying the Israeli Navy has intercepted several of their boats on their way to deliver critical aid to Gaza.
Israeli authorities must ensure their safety as these humanitarians seek to help the sick and starving.

Tens of thousands of people took to the streets today in NYC.
After marching, we surrounded 26 Federal Plaza—the building where ICE is kidnapping people and tearing families apart.
We sat in solidarity with those taken, and left flowers for those lost.

Scientists: ‘climate change will cause more extreme weather’
Conspiracy theorists: "fake news, it's not changing"
*floods and extreme weather events happen*
Conspiracy theorists: "They are controlling the weather. This is weather warfare. The weather is being manipulated".

You had a thunderstorm in Florida in July. According to her, this “doesn’t happen” and “is weather warfare.” Wait until she hears it snows in Alaska during winter…
FYI: This is NOT weather warfare. We are not under an attack. This is dangerous and misinformation.

Reading about the home front WW2 efforts leaves me wondering what things would be like now if we had continued those efforts post-war instead of diving into consumerism and individualism. Anyone else?

I got my first content warning on TikTok today. It was for a video featuring the flag ripping scene from Sound of Music. Seems it triggered some n*z*s. They will have to cry harder because I already won my appeal.

Is there less Newsom lust over here than on Threads? Sure the Trump comebacks are funny and I’m glad he’s standing up against him but he’s not suddenly some amazing progressive democrat.

I was raised in a Republican family. I was a page at several state GOP conventions, at some fundraisers, and I was even a distract delegate before leaving the party. I can tell you this, they really love to talk about state rights. Interesting how like much of what they say that’s also a lie.

Tornado 10 days ago now a wind/dust storm with critical fire danger. We have filters going in my whole house and my eyes are still burning and I’m starting to have asthma. Honestly, fire weather scares me more than tornadoes. #okwx

Meteorology is a special interest of mine so I’m going to info dump. Tomorrow in the central plains states a low pressure system is setting up. Current predictions would have pressure at category 1 hurricane levels. Pair that with our very low humidity and high wind and it’s a recipe for disaster!

So far this morning I’ve been told I’m a terrible person if I don’t feed my kids mushrooms (I’m allergic to mushrooms and don’t have kids), Biden is a communist, and Trump just was in the same circles as Epstein, he didn’t really know him. It’s not even 9am.

I’m glad some of the gutting of NOAA has been reversed but are we going to talk about how it’s not enough and it’s still their plan to privatize it? My town was hit by a tornado on Tuesday and this is the very start of tornado season. I want a well funded and staffed NWS! #savenoaa
