we are alive together in this slice of time
I walk past a huge cedar tree on campus several times a day & the smell of it is incomparable. On hot dry days it has a toasty redolence; in the rain it smells lush & alive. Wherever my head is, It seizes my attention like a whisper: “pssssst, Jen, we are alive together in this slice of time”

Threats and intimidation is the way of Trump, which makes him unpopular, which makes him double down on threats and intimidation, which then makes him even more unpopular. 🧵

The HHS rule banning trans care from many ACA plans is open for public comment now. Only 3 comments so far.

Embarrassing how the media is completely ignoring this. There's likely over 200,000 trans people on ACA plans (1% of 24 million)

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

It’s totally fine to invade and vandalize the U.S. Capitol and attack police officers defending it, steal classified documents, interfere in an election, and commit business fraud, but sabotaging a vehicle will get you serious prison time.

AOC: One thing I love about Arizonans is that you all have shown that if a US Senator isn’t fighting hard enough for you, you’re not afraid to replace her with one who will.
