I love animals, nature, democracy and snarkiness. I am aware of the irony for Solitude to be on social media.😉 VOTE in EVERY election! NORMALLY not an angry person but these are NOT normal times. Cussing helps. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yes, but I also like salted black licorice…
When I shared with coworkers one told me it was like licking asphalt (emphasis on the first syllable).😁

NYT: “Trump elevated multiple proponents of his fraud claims into high-level administration jobs… these activists could wield their power to discredit future results or argue for a federal intrusion into locally administered voting systems…” 😕 🇺🇸 🗳️

If That’s a donation, it goes to the treasury and only congress can decide how to spend it. No such (lawful) thing as private payment of government obligation.

The Republican Shutdown continues — refusing to budge knowing millions of people will lose healthcare and Trump told states to hold off funding SNAP, effective November 1st. That’s a week away.

WATCH: Trump blatantly lies that Canada faked the Reagan anti-tariffs ad (they didn’t) and claims Reagan supported tariffs (he didn’t)

🧵This is an important story.

Chicago is at the forefront of the resistance to our nation’s fall into authoritarianism.

Every city should be joining in and showing consistent support for them.

We’re in one of the most pivotal moments in the nation’s history.

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!"

Social Security - "That's socialism!"

Debt free education - "That's socialism!"

Universal childcare - "That's socialism!"

Billions for Argentina, ICE, refurbishing Trump's Qatar jet, and tax cuts for the rich...

"That's just how it is."

The amount is meaningless — less than one day of salary. But the principle is important: once the armed services are paid by the oligarchs, they become a private militia, and we no longer have a country.

When Massachusetts passed a "millionaires tax" in 2023, conservatives claimed the rich would flee.

But two years later, they haven't — and MA has collected $5.7B for infrastructure and public education.

A reminder that positive change can still happen at the state level.

As Republicans keep up attacks on congressional maps, they should get used to seeing my law firm in court. On Wednesday, North Carolina Republicans enacted a newly gerrymandered map that targets Black voters to create an additional seat for a white Republican. The next day my law firm sued.

One of the challenges to red wolf recovery is misinformation, especially the belief that people don’t want them back. But new research tells a different story: people living where red wolves once roamed support their return and recognize their ecological and societal value. Read more: bit.ly/3JoPlyF

The visceral *gut punch* many of us have felt seeing the East Wing of the White House being destroyed, conjures up the same feeling I had decades ago, when I learned my childhood home was lost in a fire.

There is a profound sense of irreplaceable loss, sorrow, and pain.

This is the Canada ad Trump lost his mind over. Shocker, he’s lying—it is Reagan’s real voice.

He’s now cutting off trade with Canada because he’s scared it could mess with the Supreme Court case over his “reciprocal” tariffs.

Trump doesn’t dance. Doesn’t need a ballroom. Whatever that herky jerk thing is that he does to YMCA isn’t dancing. Save us hundreds of millions of dollars. Somebody give him a disco ball. Also doubles as a soothing sleep aid 🤷‍♀️🙄

IL Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias is warning federal immigration agents that swapping/altering license plates during Trump's ICE raids is against the law & "will not be tolerated." A Plate Watch Hotline has been implemented for people to report cases of license plate tampering:
