Today I celebrate the beauty that a truly diverse society has brought to our country. I don’t want to live in a country where everyone looks and acts like me. To me living in a melting pot of people of all races is what makes this country great. I’m grateful for it and I will fight to keep it. 💙

If even just a fraction of us refuse to bankroll companies enabling harm, the message will be impossible to ignore. Other companies will think twice before they cave.

According to a new Economist/YouGov poll, Trump's approval rating is underwater in the majority of states — including 20 states he won last year.
He's flailing on the economy and his party's odds for 2026 are crumbling.
Do not let him convince you he is all powerful.

Don’t forget that *Trump’s own lawyer’s argument* to the Supreme Court in the immunity case was that the check on the President using his immunity to order criminal acts was that those under him would not follow illegal orders. Now it’s a crime for lawmakers to remind servicemembers of that?
The President doesn't want you standing up and speaking out against him, so he's coming after me to intimidate all of us.
But I won't back down — and neither should you.

I guess it’s a good thing we were so concerned about the right to speak our opinions being outlawed by a ruling class that we guaranteed it by making it the very first amendment in our Bill of Rights when we formed the country.
