Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously

But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state

Keep that same energy of support for her

It is good that he is admitting that he showed up late.

This humility can help Dems, a lot.
Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Happy Trans Day of Visibility 2025!
Children's Just Like Queen Esther by Ari Moffic and Kerry Olitzky (text) and Rena Yehuda Newman (illustration) Atara loves to wear her crown - to the library, to the dentist, even to her swim lessons. It gives her confidence, and shows the world that she is a girl, not a boy, like everyone thought at first. But when Atara reads the story of Queen Esther, on the Jewish holiday of Purim - she realises that you don't need a costume to express who you really are...

In 2009 GOP Member of Congress Joe Wilson screamed “you lie” during Obama’s SOTU. No censure by the GOP, only “reprimanded” by Dems

At Biden’s SOTU 2022 Lauren Boebert and MTG heckled him, nothing..

But Dems will happily throw their Black colleague under a bus for white moderate voter pandering
Ten Democrats voted to censure their colleague Al Green. Here are their names:

Ami Bera, Calif.; Ed Case, Hawaii; Jim Costa, Calif.; Laura Gillen, N.Y.; Jim Himes, Conn.; Chrissy Houlahan, Pa.; Marcy Kaptur, Ohio; Jared Moskowitz, Fla.; Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, Wash.; and Tom Suozzi, N.Y.

TEXANS! Today, I want you to contact your reps and get in their asses about this issue. They are literally trying to criminalize transgender people.
When I say that there is a trans witch hunt going on right now in Texas? This is the type of shit I am talking about. If this law goes through I can be arrested and go to to jail FOR SIMPLY BEING TRANSGENDER!
Proposed law could charge transgender Texans with fraud
Under HB 3817, Texans could be charged with "gender identity fraud" for identifying as a sex different from the one they were assigned at birth.

My latest piece for @teenvogue.com delves into the horrific story of popular skincare ingredient Retin-A.

Before Retin-A was approved by the FDA in 1971, it had been tested on hundreds of incarcerated Black people in Philadelphia, without their informed consent. The survivors still bear the scars.
The miraculous wrinkle-erasing, acne-fighting cream, is the result of decades of horrifying medical abuse.
The Horrifying History Behind a Beloved Skin-Care Ingredient
Retin-A was developed through tests on incarcerated people.

Elon Musk has shut down a team of tech-savvy civil servants responsible for developing the IRS’s free tax-filing service and improving government websites. As a result, 90 employees were immediately locked out of their devices and informed that their jobs were deemed non-essential.

I can really get behind the Keep Not Buying Stuff coyote. We all need essentials, but they also want us to keeping buying stuff we absolutely don’t need. Like a Tesla.

For the skeptics: This article has reached tens of thousands of people, and I have received dozens of stories of individual ways that local communities are coming together for it.

This movement is grassroots. It's working.

Every person counts, cause it's about keeping the fire alive in YOUR home.
We knew this was coming.

We've been preparing for months.

Call your reps. Don't give them rest.

And you don't need to wait and hold your breath on a bill like this - take sensible precautions NOW. This article offers dozens of places to start.

Was reminded to add info about finding your reps!

Federal level:

I use 5calls.org (@5calls.org 👋🏻) but www.congress.gov/members/find... is about as official as it gets.

State level:

Find your state & use address for better accuracy unless you know 9 digit ZIP: www.congress.gov/state-legisl...

Thread I wrote on calling reps and phone anxiety, if anyone finds it useful.

TL;DR: I get it!

I am very much aware that calling one's reps is a hard thing to do. I have pretty significant phone anxiety and still hate phone calls even after working on it. That's why I say if I can do it, you can almost certainly do it, too.
