Bringing my pinned Tweet along with me as I migrate here because this still matters & because we cannot normalize what Trump intends to do to DOJ. Justice should never be a political tool for presidents & their pals.

Sarah McBride has used the bathroom in our home. She can return any time. She has also talked legislative policy and action to support families, health, housing, infrastructure, justice, liberation, and more. That's where good elected officials focus.

I have shared the same bathroom with Sarah McBride on several occasions, and she never once made me uncomfortable. She did however help me fix my makeup. That congresswoman knows how to blend her foundation, which is more than I can say about Donald Trump.

Brown University transfers 255 acres in Bristol, R.I., to the Pokanoket Indian tribe: ‘We are the original stewards’ - The Boston Globe
“We are not talking about a land acknowledgment or cultural appreciation,” lawyer Taino Palermo said. “They have set a precedent to show other institutions they can do this.”

Let us be clear. A man adjudicated as a sexual abuser wants to put multiple men credibly accused of sexual assault/crimes (which they deny) in position of extreme importance. This movement has violence and deep misogyny at its core. This is deeply sick
