LA Mayor Karen Bass makes the stakes clear: All eyes are on California to pass Prop 50 and put guardrails on this lawless regime occupying the White House.

Don’t let me down my fellow Californias.

I’m absolutely thrilled to be talking with @shannonrwatts.bsky.social today about Winning The Earthquake, my biography of Jeannette Rankin, America’s first woman in Congress.
Jeannette was a master grassroots organizer who lit fires of change across the nation. I can’t wait to dive into her legacy.

Happy Halloween everyone! And remember when you see all those witches that independent women have always been vilified as demonic because they don’t conform to patriarchal norms but chose the knowledge of their value as full and equal human beings.

You better believe we’re casting spells.

Texas Republicans are trying to cancel out our votes. Well guess what?

This ain’t Texas.

Vote YES on Prop 50.

I interviewed Deb Haaland. Today. Of. All. Days.
I hope every Dem in office and running for office listens to her.

Jennifer Anne “Rally” Valenzuela knows how to find common ground, and in that, the heart of democracy.

Jeannette Rankin found out about women's suffrage while defending the rights of sex workers in 1908 then she became the first woman in Congress in 1916. Just saying.
