HUGE shout-out and gratitude to Colorado voters who showed up to vote their values and say that feeding kids is a no-brainer! (You might say it’s eLLMMentary…) www.cpr.org/2025/11/04/p...

Two Colorado hospitals on Wednesday announced they will resume gender-affirming care for people ages 18 and younger.

For families of transgender children, the announcement brought a wave of relief after weeks of heartbreak and scrambling to find new places to receive care.

Tell me again how you’re “pro-life?” I don’t think those words mean what you think they mean…
NEW: A first-of-its-kind analysis by @propublica.org found that the sepsis rate in second-trimester pregnancy loss hospitalizations increased by more than 50% after Texas’ near-total abortion ban went into effect in September 2021.

Yay! Winter! Before and after our lovely neighbor streamlined snow removal in the driveway with his snowblower. So pretty.

It's not complicated. They're just trying to stop women from being able to vote.

Found out that TWENTY emails is considered a lot to politicians on an issue.

TWENTY.

As in, they call that getting slammed.

So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind.

TWENTY is a lot.

Democrats aren’t powerless against Trump’s blitzkrieg power-grab.

Senate rules are designed to protect the rights of the minority and Democrats have tools at their disposal to grind Senate business to a halt if Republicans try to ram through Trump’s extremist agenda: indivisible.org/resource/how...

Folks have already started this, I'm hearing stories back. We are bringing park rangers to tears, and that's Ok. They think we don't know what they're going through, so let's reach out. Public service is a calling. Somewhere sometime, a federal servant helped you or your family. Thank that agency.

We’re launching a #ThankYouBrigade for federal public servants starting today. Call or email any federal office that’s mattered to you. National Park. EPA. Local Social Security office. National Forest. Just say thanks for serving. Nothing else. No politics. Nothing that would cause trouble. 1/2

This is the way. Sue and sue and sue and sue and fuck their shit up. Then delay and delay and delay and delay the litigation. Trump himself has shown us how.

Look, I am just a small town scholar of mass murder, so let me ask a simple, naive question: And then what?
Trump announces an executive order authorizing a 30,000 capacity migrant detention center in Guantanamo.

"Some of them are so bad we don't even trust the countries to hold them because we don't want them coming back, so we're going to send them out to Guatanamo Bay."

Saw this a few weeks ago and I cannot get it out of my head. Even more relevant after the reaction to Bishop Budde’s address last week and Herr Musk’s salute.

We made it thru this week. Great job. Proud of you.

Now for some free advice from Aunt Mo:

If you are in touch w folks via DMs on any platform, DISCUSS NOTHING IMPORTANT THERE. If you ever want to discuss (via text or call) anything that is sensitive/personal at all, I am begging you: USE SIGNAL
