I went to El Salvador hoping to meet with Kilmar and check on his well-being, and I had the chance to do that last night.

Our courts have been clear: this was an ILLEGAL abduction. I’m speaking now about my meeting with Kilmar and our work to bring him home:

When members of the Bush-era administration say the president is unqualified, we know it's really bad.

There are Dems fighting. I don't want to hear that they are sitting back, cowed, any more.
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.

House Republicans just voted to gut Medicaid, which covers 1 in 5 Americans overall, including 41% of births and 63% of nursing home care.

They also just voted to gut SNAP, on which 41 million food insecure Americans rely.

This won’t just harm people. This will kill people.

They own this.

On a day-to-day basis, what is the difference between being a hundred-millionaire and a billionaire? Whether you charter a jet or own one? No one needs that kind of money. #eattherich #eatthebillionaires

I remember when right-wing media said that I wasn’t qualified to be a member of Congress because of my credit card debt. My debt was nowhere near $1.2 million.

Do they think the same of RFK Jr? Or does that standard only apply to young people? We know the answer.
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., who is in the running to serve as health and human services secretary, revealed he was carrying up to $1.2 million in credit card debt in recent financial disclosures, per CNBC.

I have a lot of thoughts but am in my Human Services Subcommittee right now so I’ll respond ASAP but I feel confident that nightlife can and should co exist with a revitalized & reimagined Downtown. That’s one reason why we’re hosting our kickoff Downtown too. 🫶
Curious about your views on how to revitalize downtown and whether or not we should encourage the night life or nix it?

Dear people who don’t use the Oxford comma:

It’s never too late to do the right thing. Everyone makes mistakes, and we shouldn’t be judged solely by our pasts. What matters is the here and now. So come over to the right side of history for a fresh, new, and beautiful beginning.

Before starting The Quality of Mercy, I had to finish An Education by ABitOfWit archiveofourown.org/works/448390...
It got lost in my WIPs while they were writing it, but I'm so glad I went and reread. It's an idiots-in-love no Voldemort AU journey through hatred and prejudice.
