I can hardly believe this screenshot is about MY NOVEL!

My obsession for the past few years, a piece of my heart, a book about desire and envy, friendship and family, will be published by @BloomsburyPub in 2025.

My agent @IwalaniKim is a genius rock star! I'm so grateful.

I catch myself feeling hopeful and then traumatized by my own hope.

Under Trump, EPA scientists say managers encouraged them to delete evidence of chemicals’ harms, including cancer, miscarriage & neurological problems, from their reports — and in some cases, they said, their managers deleted the information themselves.

As Chair of the BOCC I was invited again to meet with @KamalaHarris as she arrived in NC last week.

Every opportunity with her I have used my limited time to advocate for Gaza & the West Bank.
This time I was surprised.

If you plan on voting for Jill Stein or Trump because of the war in the Middle East, please watch and reconsider. It’s just 6 minutes and it’s worth the watch.

As president, Trump slashed the civil service — the federal employees whom he collectively calls “the Deep State” — and he suggests he’ll do more of that if reelected, which would have a disproportionately negative impact on poor Americans.

We've got weekend Prospect!

Rashida Tlaib is doing GOTV in Michigan. The Uncommitted movement are up on the air with anti-Trump ads.

These folks deserved so much better from the party. But in spite of it all, they know how much is at stake and they're throwing in to fight against the fascist movement.

Trump’s social media company outsourced jobs to workers in Mexico even as the former president publicly railed against outsourcing on the campaign trail and threatened to levy heavy tariffs on businesses that send jobs south of the border.

New: From cutting children's disability benefits to allowing employers to pocket workers' tips, Trump tried to slash protections for the working poor in ways that have been forgotten by many. https://t.co/Nq2vlOE9Ta

New: Josseli Barnica is one of at least two pregnant Texas women who died after doctors delayed emergency care. She'd told her husband that the medical team said it couldn't act until the fetal heartbeat stopped. https://t.co/8qxo6obNP4
