Last batch before I can finally go home to sleep and heal.
The scariest part of being sick in a frontline city was when several doctors told me I would need to go to Kyiv or Lviv to find a surgeon who could help me. As the doctor who first diagnosed the problem put it, "All the bright minds in our field have left for safer locations."
This was less than ideal, as I don't have anyone to take care of me in those cities. But after months of searching, I managed to find one person who hasn't abandoned his practice in Kharkiv. Just one!
I can't express how lucky I felt when he also turned out to be incredibly confident and knowledgeable. Solving problems like mine is his daily routine. Finding him meant my family could be by my side throughout this entire journey. I almost cried with relief after our consultation.
I still have a long road ahead, but I am so deeply grateful for the medical workers of all kinds who haven't abandoned frontline Kharkiv. They work through air raid alerts and bombings, risking their own lives to save others.
As Trump inflates the cost of living—skyrocketing prices for everything from gas to groceries—people deserve to be paid with dignity & fairness. Proud to join my colleagues in calling for a living wage for American workers.
The Trump admin is planning a massive rollback of gun regulations that would cut resources, eliminate ATF law enforcement positions & leave our communities vulnerable to more violence.
I joined advocates & experts last weekend to condemn these cuts this Gun Violence Awareness Month.
When asked about his ties to Epstein, billionaire Wall Street financier Leon Black refused to answer. When he was served a subpoena, he stormed out. Next month, he’ll have to answer our questions under oath. We won’t stop until there is justice for survivors.

America 250 gets Co-opted by Freedom 250…So why did the President do this…just another grift to direct the $150 million appropriated by Congress for the celebration to his cronies…no wonder why the Artists dropped out. States like my own Connecticut…
Jennifer Welch: “The Republican Party has exposed itself for being the pathological, anti-family, pro-pedophilia death cult that they are. They lie. The wealth never trickles down. They have to cheat in order to win. These are the most morally depraved people out there”
🚨HOLY SHIT: Thomas Massie is spitting some FACTS right now that should SHUT MAGA UP:
“I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections.”
Virginia Giuffre’s death to be reviewed by police!
Women's safety advocates also joined calls for an inquiry, writing to the Coroner to urge an investigation into Virginia Giuffre's death.
Now, Western Australia Police have also ordered a review into how officers handled their interactions with Giuffre in the months before her death after her family raised concerns about the police response.
Today I read about a mother in Indian Rocks Beach with three young children who no longer qualifies for SNAP benefits because of legislation Anna Paulina Luna proudly supported.
This is personal for me. Growing up, both of my parents worked hard. But there were tough times, and we relied on food stamps to get through them. That safety net made a difference for my family. Anna Paulina Luna just ripped it away from thousands of families across Pinellas County who need it just as much as we did.
The people of FL-13 deserve a representative who remembers where she came from and fights for the families who are struggling right now.

Gordon’s scarred back exposed the brutality of slavery over 160 years ago.
Today, Palestinian Mohammad Abu Tawileh’s tortured back tells a similar story. Different time, different place—but the same logic: dehumanization, domination, and violence justified in the name of power.

Interesting Scientific work of a Scientist and his family tracking melting glaciers…his original goal was to track them for 50 years, he is 8 years away from completing that. Plus his daughter uses Art ...1/2
