Kicked off 2026 up in Flagstaff with a full house at Sosoba for “Community Over Corporations” – and the energy in that room was exactly what this year needs.

Serving families at the Flagstaff Family Food Center on New Year’s Day was the most meaningful way to start the year—standing shoulder to shoulder with volunteers, staff, and community partners to fight food insecurity together.

Derrick will still be in Flagstaff for two events today

Stay warm, Flagstaff 💙🌲

This is a clear violation of the gag order!

Tricia McLaughlin is not a private individual offering commentary, she is the Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs at the Department of Homeland Security and an official DHS spokesperson.

What really powers community growth?

It starts with putting everyday people back at the center of our economy.
I’m running because Arizona families and small businesses deserve fair rules, clear choices, and a system that works for them—not against them.

But Beale/Humphries/Owl/Lazarus & Sylvan wouldn't do something that is "dumb as shxt". Right? 🫣

Community over corporations. Always.

Join us in Flagstaff this New Year’s Day for a warm bowl, real conversation, and people-first energy policy with Derrick Espadas.

When utilities put profits first, communities pay the price. Let’s flip the script—together.

⚡️ 14% IS NOT JUST A NUMBER — IT’S A BURDEN ⚡️

Tucson Electric Power is pushing a 14% rate increase, and Arizona families are the ones expected to absorb the cost. In a state where air conditioning is a necessity, not a luxury, higher bills mean tougher choices.

1. So journalists were able to delete the redactions on thousands of Epstein files simply by pasting them into Notepad. This is the most incompetent cover up in history, maybe appointing a bunch of podcasters to high level government positions wasn't a great idea.
