“The least I can do is speak out for those who cannot speak for themselves.”

OMG!

“She is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful Country of Ireland, if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA!” - DT

Please tell me where the real threat is coming from, in the “best interests of our Great County”.
Tomorrow, I will not be celebrating independence, I will be celebrating interdependence—the truth that we rise together. And that freedom means little unless it’s shared by all.

Happy Fourth of July 🇺🇸❤️

Current view while trying to get some “sun” by the pool…

Junior, throwing shade 😂.
In other news…I voted for the Emmy awards today. So many familiar faces who I had the privilege of working with earlier on in their careers. Too many to tag but you know who you are, and I’m beyond proud of ALL of you!!
Last night I dreamt that we lost the election, Trump became president, Elon Musk was there (?), immigrants who built this country were being deported, citizens human rights were being stripped away, and we were at war!!

What a nightmare! Thank goodness I’m not on social media anymore!
I’m not on social media much anymore but when I am, I show up like this because representation matters!

Happy Pride, ya’ll!
Current view #Paradise. We haven’t taken a family vacation in years!
Thousands of people showing up at the #handsoff protest in Seattle today! It was incredible!! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇸
Nationwide protests are set to take place Saturday in opposition to the Trump administration and its allies, with leaders vowing to stand up to push back against the “most brazen power grab in modern history.”

Like many of you, we’re watching #adolescence. As a father of an “almost” teenager I’m rocked to the core, especially given the current “climate” in the USA. The exposure to bullying, influence of social media and disregard for the law is undermining our human ability to do what’s best for our kids.
This is a picture of a rainbow. See all those colors? That’s the world I live in and they are all welcome and no one can stop them from shining!
OMG! Anthony Lucero’s film The Paper Bag Plan won Best Feature at the Santa Monica film festival today and the incredible Cole Massie won BEST ACTOR!!

Happy Public Schools Week!

As a former teacher, I know that public schools are not just where our kids go to learn - they’re the center of our communities.

That’s why I was proud to make the largest investment in public schools in state history.
