ICE’s courthouse raids in Chesterfield County and beyond do not make our communities safe. I sent a letter to DHS Secretary Noem and ICE Acting Director Lyons to demand answers.

The cook does not care if you live or die and uses salt and butter accordingly

Mahmoud Khalil finally had a chance to watch a video of artists and actors reading Mahmoud’s letter to his newborn son from ICE detention.

We’re overjoyed that Mahmoud is free to be with his family while his case proceeds. We'll keep fighting for everyone’s rights to free speech and due process.

Some replies have made me think of learned helplessness- a consequence of being unable to change bad things that continue to happen.

Very worrisome and yet, a reality in today’s world.

Anyone else having trouble managing multiple and conflicting realities?

I really wonder if humans were built for bouncing between sublime calm and extreme anxiety.

On his first Father’s Day, Mahmoud Khalil will sit in a detention center 1,500 miles away from his wife and newborn son, as punishment for speaking out in support of Palestinian rights.

Y’all. I’ve taken a few days off and I’m still off tomorrow and I’m a changed person. First time I have truly unplugged like this since well before the election. I so needed this. 🙏

BREAKING: The Supreme Court ruled courts must assess the full context of a police encounter when determining what constitutes excessive force — not just the moments right before the lethal force.

Over 1,300 people were killed by police last year. This ruling will help hold the police accountable.

Here are the most strategic, winnable, Democratic races remaining in 2025:

Nov 4, 2025:

- Gov. of Virginia
- Gov. of New Jersey
- State Supreme Court of Pennsylvania

Donations, phone banking, postcards… whatever you can do.

We need Democrats in ALL 50 STATES to support these three races.
