2026: Make no apologies. Do what you need to do that is in your best interest and for the well-being of those who are near and dear to you. This life waits for no one, so don't wait for approvals from people who don't wish to see you succeed.
Blessings on blessings to all.
These are serious times—and we need serious people representing us in Washington, DC and in states across the country.

Dolores Huerta was a hero of mine.
When she co-founded the National Farm Workers Association in 1962, people thought Dolores was crazy. “How are you going to organize farm workers,” she remembered being asked. "They are poor, powerless immigrants.” But that’s exactly what she did, helping thousands of migrant laborers working in brutal conditions make their voices heard, and demand something better.
Dolores spent the rest of her life fighting for marginalized communities, even as she herself faced sexism and abuse — including, as she revealed earlier this year, from Cesar Chavez and others within her own movement. She also came up with a pretty good slogan, “Si, se puede” — Yes, we can — that I too often get credit for. But as usual, Dolores got there first.
Michelle and I are thinking of Dolores’s family, the people whose lives she changed, and everyone who drew inspiration from her example.

Dolores Huerta was a pioneering labor leader and legendary civil rights activist. Amidst the struggle of the movement, her rallying cry, "Sí se puede," was a call to stay in the fight.
The work of Dolores Huerta and the United Farm Workers was a driving force for change across California and our country. Her brilliant organizing and fierce negotiating came to the national spotlight during the Delano Grape strike, and countless people benefited from her decades-long career. Thanks to her, immigrants and workers won better wages, working conditions, environmental protections, and voting rights.
I was blessed to know Dolores for many years and proud to organize alongside my dear friend to champion working families and immigrant rights. I will always be grateful for her support and friendship. We will honor her legacy by continuing the fight for the dignity of every person.
Doug and I send our love and prayers to the four generations of loving family she leaves behind, the community she built, and to the millions of people who have been touched by her work.
Dolores Huerta was a labor champion and civil rights leader who never wavered in the fight for hardworking Americans.
Thanks to her leadership, workers have higher wages, better benefits, and safer working conditions.
Rest in power, Dolores Huerta.
They said Hillary was ahead in the polls.
They said Kamala was ahead in the polls.
I don’t give a fuck what the polls say right now. Get your ass out there and fucking vote.
The club sticking by Carrick after what we saw on Sunday should be the final wake up call to this fanbase that this is not a football club. They don't care what you think. They don't care about our history. This is all about money. Stick because it's cheap
It’s disappointing to have to say this, but @CBSNews, this is a serious failure of editorial reporting. I clearly state in this clip that while I have not personally been to Cuba, I have spoken with Cubans who have described it as a dictatorship, and I believe them. To claim I declined to answer the question is categorically false. That is not journalism. It is misinformation.
Help get @AbdulElSayed elected to the senate!

Abdul isn’t the scary person his opponents want you to be afraid of.
There’s so much work going into making people afraid of Abdul. People focus on his Muslim name, make accusations about who he’s connected to, and warn that he’s going to force Sharia law on everyone. You hear it over and over again. And I think we should stop and ask why they’re working so hard to make us afraid of him.
It’s hard for me to hear Muslims and Arabs talked about this way without thinking about our own Jewish history. We know what it’s like to have people treat your identity as a reason to distrust you, to make you seem threatening just because of who you are. I’m not telling anyone what they have to believe about Abdul. I’m asking people to recognize that this kind of talk should sound familiar to us.
And look, I understand that people in our community are scared right now. There are real threats, real grief, and real reasons to be worried about Jewish safety. I’m not trying to minimize any of that. But what do we actually do about it?
For me, this comes down to a pretty simple question: Who is going to protect the democracy that has helped keep Jews safe in America? Who is going to stand up for the rights of all of us? Abdul. Because I believe protecting our community means protecting the democracy we all depend on.
The pedophile protection party’s president is laundering right-wing conspiracy theories through the most corrupt DOJ in American history.
Whenever the news turns bad, this creep reaches for one name: mine. So let’s make it crystal clear. My name has always been Ilhan Omar.
Maybe you should focus on what your VP’s real name is.
Help get @abdulelsayed elected to the senate! Jewish safety depends on a real multiracial democracy—and Abdul is the one fighting to protect it.

We know how much it matters to live in a country where our rights are protected, where the law applies equally to everyone, and where the majority can’t just decide that some people don’t deserve the same freedoms. The safety and freedom we’ve found in America didn’t happen by accident. They exist because of democracy. And protecting democracy means protecting Jewish safety, too.
We know what happens when those protections start to break down. When courts are weakened, elections are undermined, and people lose equal protection under the law, minorities are often the first to pay the price. Jews have seen this throughout our history. It’s one of the reasons so many of our families sought refuge in democratic countries.
That’s why I find it so alarming to see what’s happening right now. When masked government agents are taking people off the streets and citizens are being shot in public, we should all be worried about where things are headed. As Jews, we know that when a government starts targeting certain groups of people, no one should assume they’re safe from what comes next.
Mike Rogers has chosen to align himself with a movement that is willing to attack our democracy. He stood with Trump and refused to accept the results of the 2020 election. And now we’re seeing what happens when a political movement treats the rights and dignity of certain people as disposable. For Jews, these things should set off alarm bells.
Jewish safety is tied to the health of our democracy. We can’t protect one without protecting the other. And in this Senate race, Abdul is the candidate who understands that and is willing to fight for it.

Fmr Pres. @BillClinton: "I'm tired of this constant us vs. them...I'm tired of treating our allies like they're dirt...I'm tired of people denigrating Muslims for being Muslims."
If you are a Democrat, vote like we are losing in every single state this midterm season. Do not get cocky. Do not get comfortable. Do not get complacent. Just vote.
