Diversity matters.
Equity is essential.
Inclusion is non-negotiable.
This isn’t about politics. It’s about basic humanity.

My kids walk into public schools every day. So do my students. I’ve spent my life fighting for them—and I’m not stopping now.
To those standing strong against this cruel bill: thank you.
To those who didn’t: you failed our kids, our communities, and our families. We’re watching.

Final vote. 50-50. VP breaks the tie.
One single GOP Senator could have stopped this abomination. Saved millions of parents from watching their child go hungry. Saved the lives destroyed when Medicaid disappears.
They will all live forever with the horror of this bill.

Fighting for your state doesn’t mean selling out the rest of the country. Every vote leaves a legacy.
We won’t forget who sold us out—and we damn sure won’t forget who stood up and fought back.

While Senate Republicans and the White House are trying to cut dirty deals and jam their big abomination of a bill through the Senate Floor—I want to take a moment to thank the three heroines of the Supreme Court holding it down for our democracy and the rule of law every day! So grateful! ❤️

When this Bigly Shitstorm of a bill passes, I’ll hold Mitch McConnell accountable—
for every dollar stolen from public schools,
every right stripped away,
and every life put at risk.
He built this. He owns it. We’re not getting over it.

You need a distraction? Go play golf.
Not with missiles. Not with lives. Not with war.
I’m a parent in a red state—and Mitch McConnell is my senator.
I’m furious, but not surprised.
If you're in Congress and still silent, you're complicit.
My kids deserve better. I won’t forget who failed them.

I’m a mom and educator in a deep red state.
I call. I write. I vote. I show up.
I try to help my kids make sense of what’s happening.
But the power grabs keep coming. The extremism keeps spreading.
Some days, it feels like nothing is enough.
What do we do when doing everything still isn’t enough?

Damn. You know it's bad when Pete (the extraordinary one) drops an f-bomb because Pete (the unordinary one) f*cks up 👀⬇️
From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

If any teacher texts state test information, takes a picture of a state test question, refers to or shares specifics of a state test question, they would likely lose their job. Why are we not holding our US Secretary of Defense to the same level of scrutiny?

We wouldn't question any other professional for leaving a job that doesn't treat them well, why are #teachers exempt? Especially, when they are likely to be #MoreEducated and have more #AdvancedDegrees than most. The fact that there isn't a larger #teachershortage in #publiceducation is a miracle.
