Trump didn’t have time to meet with the families of those who died on Flight 5342, but he did have time to do an ad for Elon and Teslas on the front lawn of the White House.

After 3 surgeries, a blood clot, infection & being hospitalized for over a week, the moment I was discharged I rushed to the airport so I could get on a plane to DC & vote NO on Republicans’ disastrous budget plan.
Rep. Pettersen traveled from Colorado with her newborn son so she could vote NO. 🧵

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

At Cabaret yesterday, Cliff said his line “…if you’re not against all this then you’re for it. Or you might as well be”. The audience interrupted the scene to applaud that line so strongly it stopped the show. Doing a show about the onset of fascism right now is. . . chilling.

Our president spent $15-20 million in taxpayer money to go to the Super Bowl and have people boo him and flip him off. Our 2nd president spent $44 billion to buy Twitter where folks go to trash talk him and his co-felon.

I know you can only call people out for hypocrisy if they have principles in the first place, but they are classifying racist posts as youthful indiscretions while ending people's careers for using the word "gender"

I don’t live in Los Angeles, but I know a ton of people there. I personally know people who have lost everything. So I had some thoughts about how some folks are talking about these fires.

Watching live news coverage of the Pacific Palisades fire and Steve Guttenburg appears out of the smoke to provide a PSA.
