We live in a nation where I am now sending out alerts about what the U.S. attorney general is doing in our name.
It’s a lot to sit with.
It’s going to get a lot darker before it starts getting lighter, but I will keep doing what I do. And, it will get lighter again.

ALERT: Attorney General Pam Bondi is apparently threatening some of those providing medical care to their minor transgender patients.
If you receive one of these subpoenas, please reach out, have your lawyer do so, or send me a copy. My email is in bio, as is my Signal.

The nation's fifth most populous county, San Diego, just chose its political future today—and appears to have chosen to have a Democratic local government—and it's crickets everywhere. Quite the eye-popping example of the NY/East-Coast-bias of how elections get covered.

The rule of law is all or nothing and must apply equally to everyone. If there's no rule of law for some people in America, then there's no rule of law for any of us.

Spoke to two USAID employees today. Hard to describe the chaos happening there right now.
Critical programs providing food, medicine, and fuel to countries like Ukraine have been halted. Half the workforce has been fired. Staff are being intimidated.
And today, the USAID website was taken down.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
