UC Santa Cruz alumna. A citizen deeply concerned about Trump, the GOP who enable him, & his blind followers. (Wheat painting @LesleyFriedmann).

Stephen Miller is an extremist whose political philosophy is fundamentally hostile to constitutional restraint.

You can't manage public lands without the scientists and firefighters who protect them. The radical plan to purge the US Forest Service is an intentional act of environmental sabotage. Tell your rep to block this illegal dismantlement: 👇 https://t.co/V9HjOIeFGQ
Today marks 14 years of DACA. Thousands of Arizona DACA recipients are still living in limbo — and this Administration is making it worse by slow-rolling renewals. These young people deserve a pathway to citizenship, and I won’t stop fighting until they get one.
This article illustrates all the places the Trump administration is completely wrong about the power grid. Their dogma and ignorance are raising your power bill. https://t.co/GgpF44V7gR
While Earth gasps, we’re still:
Cutting forests faster than they grow back
Subsidizing fossil fuels
Dumping plastic into oceans
Treating “green” as optional
Extinction isn’t a meteor this time. It’s our daily choices + bad policy. #EndFossilFuels
I once asked Henry Kissinger after a press conference what a superpower should do to avoid looking weak. ‘Don’t start a war,’ he said. He meant Vietnam, but it seems particularly relevant now.
NEW: The DOJ is taking aim at common-sense federal law that prevents voters from being kicked off the registration roles within 90 days of an election.
It signals the Trump administration's desire to cancel registrations across the nation in the days leading up to the midterms. https://t.co/G4z6KWLFcT
The President's reckless trade war is driving energy costs through the roof. Before Washington started disrupting global markets, too many families were struggling to keep up with their bills.
That's unacceptable. And it's not something we're going to wait on Washington to fix.
Gov. @GavinNewsom: Donald Trump is selling the presidency. He's running the largest cash heist in American political history, trading foreign tariff relief for approval of his golf courses, day trading behind the Resolute desk, reaping hundreds of millions of dollars in personal profit, and he's doing it openly. He did it last night on the White House lawn. He's doing it through cryptocurrencies. The White House has become a marketplace, a marketplace for sneakers and coins and watches, cologne, guitars, Bibles, and phones. Influence for sale. Access for sale.
Disgusting scenes as Security guards working to destroy Salzan island nature reserve in Albania for Ivanka Trump to build a luxury apartment complex drag off a lone protestor trying to save one of the last untouched placed in the Mediterranean https://t.co/iRbsIQ1YMU
DHS’s expansion of mass surveillance capacities is advancing the Trump administration’s authoritarianism.
At a @HomelandDems shadow hearing, we examined how DHS’s unchecked, unaccountable surveillance capacities are being turned on us to suppress dissent and intimidate citizens from exercising their rights.
We must not bend the knee to the authoritarians in office. Let’s keep fighting back and dismantle DHS!
🚨 BREAKING: Gavin Newsom Just Escalated His Fight With Trump’s Justice Department.
Newsom’s office has formally requested emails, texts, memoranda, and Signal messages involving top DOJ officials that reference either Gavin Newsom or Jennifer Siebel Newsom.
The request specifically names senior Trump Justice Department figures, including Pam Bondi, Emil Bove, and Todd Blanche.
And it covers every communication from January 20, 2025, to the present.
The FBI didn't raid a polling place. They raided the office of a group that registers voters. Then they sent special agents to the homes of people affiliated with the organization.
This is the same administration that raided a Georgia elections hub in February. The same one that launched voting fraud investigations in California after Trump made unfounded public suggestions of fraud. The same president who has repeated false claims about 2020 for five years and counting.
The DOJ's own response to NBC News: anything the target says is "unfounded speculation" because they haven't been shown the warrant affidavit. That's the government telling a civic organization - we searched your office, we showed up at your employees' homes, and you don't get to know why yet.
Voter fraud in the United States is rare. That's not a progressive talking point. That's the documented position of government officials and election experts across administrations.
What isn't rare is this administration opening federal investigations into voter registration groups, election infrastructure, and community organizers in the months before a midterm election where Republicans are already staring at a difficult map.
The Ohio Organizing Collaborative has been doing this work since 2007. One canvasser pleaded guilty to a fraud scheme in 2017. That's the predicate for FBI agents showing up at people's homes in 2026.
Call it what the board member called it. Mob boss energy.
Ukraine responds to Russia trying to destroy one of its most important cultural and spiritual landmarks by attacking a vital, strategic oil facility in one of the most defended areas of Russia.
The war in a nutshell--and another example of why Ukraine must win.
Kaja Kallas:
❗️"We have also now verified reports that the Chinese military has been training Russian military personnel to fight in Ukraine. We are carefully assessing the implications."
President Trump is referenced in FBI interview summaries tied to a woman who accused him of sexual assault decades ago, yet three of those summaries are absent from the Justice Department’s public release of its Epstein files. https://t.co/iINXihLTJz
It's maddening. Elon Musk and Donald Trump destroyed USAID in the name of ending waste and inefficiency. A new report shows that the result was not only the expiration of $8 million in contraceptives but that the US is still paying large sums each month to store the expired contraceptives. https://t.co/5B5Ppd1fYt in response to a bipartisan inquiry from @SenatorShaheen and @murkowski
Our system is rigged so that one man becomes a trillionaire while millions of Americans can't afford a trip to the doctor.
Wealth is funneled to the wealthy while everyone else is hanging on by their fingernails.
My wealth tax would level the playing field.
Let's get it done.
The Iran deal was signed on Sunday. The fact that the trump Administration hasn’t released the deal language and instead is having @JDVance try to spin the deal in advance tells you all you need to know.
KALLAS: Moscow has no intention to end the war. Overnight Russian attacks killed civilians in Ukraine and damaged Kyiv's historical cathedral.
This direct assault on Ukraine’s 1,000-year-old heritage also exposed absurdity of Russia’s claims to be the defender of Christianity.
