My cats wait & stare at a specific time to be fed & tucked in. They have trained me well & they know it. 😂

Happy #InternationalDayofTheGirl! The little girl in this photo is me. If I could tell my younger self one thing, I’d say: forgive. Forgive, and forgive again. And then, change the structure that allowed that injustice to occur. Always forgive the person. Always work to change the structure.

I agree. We seem to be at an inflection point with judicial rulings & Congressional stalemate. It"s messy but that's ok.

T wants anything associated with Obama to be erased. Yes, the ACA could be better, but eliminating it makes healthcare costs to rise & people die.

I would have loved to be in the room when #POTUS learned that a woman who leads the resistance in Venezuela won the #NoblePeacePrize

Fun facts: Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009, has won an Emmy, two Grammys, and his production company won an Oscar.

Trump has won 34 felony convictions as well as civil adjudications for rape and financial fraud. He is currently protecting rich and powerful pedophiles in the GOP.

Instead of working to reopen the government and lower health care costs, House Republicans are taking their FOURTH week of vacation.

@repmcgovern.bsky.social and I are going to keep showing up—even when Republicans don't—to make sure every family has access to affordable health care.
