My comment on his more recent post was that THIS (along with Cory Booker’s recent action) is the kind of leadership we need so much more of. I don’t live in his state, but he is representing me today SO much better than my own so-called “representatives.” Thank you for doing something!
I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

It’s time to exercise our most vivid imaginations. How else to be inspired to make the impossible possible?

Excellent! I think the fact that he’s falling back on that lame-ass claim just exposes the depth of his panic. He’s getting found out and apparently is regressing to his sandbox years. (“Nuh-uhhh!”)
Just watched the Mike Johnson clip on CNN where he said that the angry Republican town halls were paid actors… Democrats filling seats. Have you SEEN the town halls?! Also, haven’t we seen this “crisis actor” playbook before?!? It didn’t seem to work well in the end for Alex Jones “Mr. Speaker”.

Do it! That’s an amazing idea. This is just the kind of creative activism that’s inspiring me right now.🥳
Considering second hand shopping for banned books, and putting them all on a table outside and letting people take them for free.

I’m brand new to Jax, and I found out about this too late; nevertheless, I’m just happy to know that this happened in my new home town. ❤️
Thank you to everyone who attended our Black History Month celebration at City Hall this morning. Hosted by the Mayor's African American Advisory Board, the moving performances, music, and speeches captured this year's theme of "Empowering Futures by Honoring Legacy." (1/2)

And most of the time, they actually get their books returned by the borrower. Now that’s a superpower.
Do not mess with librarians. They let complete strangers borrow their books. For a living. Even the hardcovers. They are so much stronger than you know.

Department Of Interior Bans Unlikely Animal Friendships

She’s so right.
Honestly, jokes aside. Working right now feels like an extreme sport. When nihilism abounds… does “work” actually matter?!? I want collective naps, daytime dance parties and gatherings where we scream, cry, laugh and hold each other… not emails and meetings that begin with “how are you?”!
