My father fought the Nazis in WW2 and if he were alive he would be appalled to see the U.S. not standing up for Ukraine and Zelenskyy. Now more than ever I am my father’s daughter. SLAVA UKRAINI! 🇺🇦🗽🇺🇸

Tribal Nations across the U.S. have been impacted by federal funding freezes & the firing of staff at BIA, BIE, and IHS.

These actions undermine tribal trust and treaty responsibilities. We ask the Administration to take immediate action to halt, exempt, and reverse these actions.

We’re all-in on electing @crawfordforwi.bsky.social and stopping Elon Musk from buying a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court. @ezralevin.bsky.social explains why this upcoming election is a big deal for anybody who cares about our democracy.

Republicans are too chickenshit to hold town halls. Shocker.

Here’s an idea: Democrats, hold town halls in Republican districts.

Feb 28 is the national boycott of American companies.
Tomorrow I am holding a press conference with Quebec Amazon employees who were fired by Jeff Bezos.
He is a toxic oligarch and a pal of Trump.
I am calling on all Canadians to support the Amazon workers and boycott this shitty company.

My husband @robertcooper-us.bsky.social and I were the FIRST gay couple to adopt children in the US, way back in 1985. We went on to adopt five wonderful kids — all adopted at birth.

They’ve grown so much! Here’s a pic from our wedding in 2000, and a recent one including their significant others. ❤️

It’s not a president’s job to punish lawyers who represent clients he doesn’t like any more that it’s his job to give preference to media outlets that give him favorable coverage. This is a redline for democracy. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/25/u...
