I'm so proud of myself and my husband!! I've had a storage unit an hour and a half away from us for almost 2 years, and I've been wanting to move it closer to us. It's been weighing on my mind the whole time I've had it. Today we finally moved everything into a U-Haul and moved it to a closer unit!!

I love being married and sharing a bed with my husband because he's always there to wake me from my night terrors where I'm screaming in my sleep 🙃

My students may annoy me to death, but I'll go to bat for them in a heartbeat. Especially against ignorant old men on power trips.

By 9:30 this morning, I've already been told to shut up by a 2nd grader and called a dummy by a 1st grader. Teaching in April is not for the weak.

People are NOT understanding what empty cargo ships from China means.

It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

Today, they are arresting judges

Tomorrow it could be Democratic members of Congress

Historian here posting for no reason at all.

U.S. Constitution, Article II Section 4:

"The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors."

This targets anyone who has ever changed their name. Married women, gay people, trans people, people with nontraditional childhoods, not to mention the money it costs to acquire the required documents. This feels very Handmaids Tale
The House bill, titled the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, passed by a vote of 220 to 208. It would require states to obtain in-person proof of citizenship—such as a passport or birth certificate—from individuals seeking to register to vote.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

Trump voters feeling bitter
‘Cause the market’s in the shitter.

See? I’m a poet and don’t know it.
Although my feet show it.
They’re *longfellows.*
Just trying to keep folks amused while their 401Ks go down the drain.
Trump is like honeybadger: He don’t give a shit.

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.
