Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 06/10/2026There is a long conversation about pragmatism and courage in my mentions right now and I just want to say thank you to everyone who is deciding to fight in whatever way they can. It takes work and I'm grateful you're doing it. 010
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Good lord folks. I know we have been real slow to come around to the idea of consequences for the administration but between this and the uses whistleblower, and the taxpayer funded campaign ad, can we gear up against this election interference? Please? 1218
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 05/10/2026So now we have Duckworth, Lieu, Rahn Emanuel(????) and Jeffries saying impeachment is not a priority. Which consulting firm gave these people this script. Who is doing this. 652
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 05/10/2026The Dems are *just now* supporting Justin Pearson in his TN-09 race. Im glad they are finally showing up, a month before the election, but wtf folks. Why are you only getting in the game when you feel like they're already going to win 120
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 05/10/2026One of the things you could do on the early internet was log into a gardening robot in what was then czechloslovakia, and water some plants halfway across the world. Middle school me thought it was the coolest thing ever. 1275
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 05/10/2026This is correct. signed, One of the people helping folks get elected in 2026 050
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Wish they had led with what a phenomenal candidate Elizabeth Lee is, but honestly delighted to see national media finally taking a serious look at AZ-05. (Next do AZ-08! There are some surprises out in the desert there!) 273
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Serious question - filmmakers, storytellers, how would you script this for maximum narrative impact? DM, I wanna talk 120

Reposted by Keira HavensFlora 🍓🏳️⚧️ @floramerigold.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Yesterday's news about Jacob Geller broke my heart, so much that I couldn't stop dwelling on it all day.

Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Not the story I was looking for earlier today, but fantastic 👇 010
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 26/09/2026There is a science fiction story about a sentient space elevator that feels disrepair and damage as harm and the entire short story is about its unending servitude and its yearning for the sweet release of death. 8155
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Ok what the hell is going on here. This is also Duckworth's argument with regards to helping Trump "save face." "Make Trump Look Good" cannot possibly be the Democrats' new messaging can it? 3145
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I think all the time about what would have happened if the money currently being set on fire for AI had instead been invested in electing politicians that would build a Conservation Corps or granted to High Country News to become a national environmental media network or something 153
Reposted by Keira HavensJonathan Ladd @jonathanmladd.com · 24/09/2026Yes. I think the consensus among US elite pundits and senior politicians that the way to protect liberal democracy is *not* to punish elite figures who violate its rules is wrong. A norm starting at least with the Watergate pardon. The opposite is true. You need to enforce the law and Constitution. 562270533

Reposted by Keira HavensOliver Willis @owillis.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Dear @duckworth.senate.gov when you became a senator you swore an oath to the constitution. Well impeachment is literally in the constitution. Impeachment is your job. So yes, “get back to work.” 39684182

And this is a perfect example of the ways in which mass deportations eventually impact EVERYONE in ways their proponents continue to pretend don't exist. You think Peter's going to forget this experience, or the feelings it brings up? Hell no. Trauma splashes beyond its targets. 121172244
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Really really excited for this part of November 150
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Thanks to @liberalcurrents.com for having me on last week. Massie isn't going to be the last rep filling articles - let's talk about what it takes to make accountability happen 071
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Collins can do this because she is on the appropriations committee and I think it really puts some much needed context to articles like this. Note how many times Collins discusses operating in good faith and scolds Democrats for not wanting to "play ball" punchbowl.news/article/sena...punchbowl.newsThe Senate Appropriations Committee is unravelingEverything is getting worse for Senate appropriators, as Republicans forgo markups for the second week in a row while negotiations over FY2027 funding have stalled out. 192

Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Crucial point. If @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social hadn't pushed his caucus to vote present and whipped for impeachment instead, they had the numbers here. 22713
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Hahahahahahahahahahaaa Wow. Very excited for the midterms to be a failure of incomprehensably epic proportion for them. 030
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 16/09/2026This is so niche but I am beyond irritated that we are all going to have to learn about the Outer Space Treaty now. 040
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 15/09/2026This is **exactly** why we need impeachment votes every other day. Expose those rifts. Put everyone on the record and make them deeply uncomfortable. Govern you cowards. www.cnn.com/2026/09/15/p... 22915
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 15/09/2026The Democrats have two articles of impeachment for Hegseth just sitting in the Judiciary Committee waiting to die (HRes 935 & HRes 1109). They both could have been brought to a vote before this. Instead they waited to let someone else do it. 13417
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Man, just so tired of spinelessness. 8 members of Congress moved towards impeachment on this most recent vote. Our very first Republican (Massie) took a baby step by voting present. He's also introduced articles of impeachment for Hegseth - those should be coming to a vote this week too 172
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Oh my god. Friends, teachers, @citizensimpeachment.com will BUILD YOU CURRICULUM. heck if your kids are old enough we'll walk them through the entire process of how to contact their reps, what their constitutional responsibilities are, and yes, how impeachment works. DM! We would love to do this! 061
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I see this as just one more example of Only Democrats Have Agency. She's treating this obsession with Hasan Piker as if it was a force of nature, a hurricane or an avalanche that you'd be stupid to ignore. It's not. You can ignore it. 152
Keira Havens @highcountryrose.bsky.social · 13/09/2026This is, in very concise form, why we decided that we had to build a machine to threaten the jobs of every last member of Congress. Government by the people, for the people. Or lose your job 172
