Republicans have the house, senate, and presidency, yet many in maga are still convinced they are the victims. You’re only a victim of being mislead to believe Trump cares about anything but himself

Raskin: In any event, if he really cared about public safety in DC… he would not have pardoned 1600 insurrectionists and violent cop beaters on his first day in office.

Congratulations on learning absolutely nothing about making deals with him, Senator.

Franklin Graham could use his platform to condemn our pedophile president who is also a felon, grifter & blasphemer! But instead, he’s disappointed in people being treated as people. Gaslighting 101 from the religious right. Results are in Franklin Graham: You are NOT the salt of the earth!

"In the past week, a union leader has been arrested, a U.S. Rep charged with a crime, a U.S. Senator violently handcuffed, and reporters shot with rubber bullets and detained." Y'all ready to get going on this General Strike thing yet?

This is absolutely insane, and criminal. Everyone, especially a Senator representing the state, has a right to speak out. The fact that the agents felt protected in acting this way says everything. We’re quickly traversing a dangerous path

Crockett: Instead of the President cosplaying as the next pope, he may want to cosplay as an actual President of these United States. That means he may have to do a little bit of research and understand that he swore a an oath to defend and protect the constitution.

Hey Alaska Democrats! Stuff like this is why no one likes you.
Screenshot of email sent by Alaska Democrats

“Did your mom raise a quitter
-Then, why are you acting like it?
Alaska is in need. Our generation's fight is just beginning:
• Rising cost of living
• Sinking salmon returns
• Crumbling infrastructure
• Low supply of housing.
ALASKA IS IN NEED, AND THE FIGHT IS JUST BEGINNING.
WE STAND AGAINST:
X Rising cost of living
X Sinking salmon returns
DEFEND ALASKA
Club
X Crumbling infrastructure
X Low supply of housing
FIND OUT WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP.
So what are YOU gonna do about it?
It feels like we've come to a point where, as the saying goes, "two paths diverged in the Alaska bush." We can either accept the status quo and watch our state's potential fade, or we can work together to create a better future for Alaska.
I'm choosing the latter. I refuse to watch our state's potential be squandered. There is no time but now.
The Defend Alaska Club is committed to tackling these issues head-on, through activism and community engagement. We're working to strengthen our schools, support families, and build a more vibrant and sustainable Alaska. We need you.
Still not convinced?
...That's fine. I don't believe that you do not see the same problems that I do; so if you want to bow out when you are needed most... I understand, I just don't respect it.”

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

You know what surprised me the most about who showed up in the Anchorage #HandsOff protest? The ppl our society labeled as Boomers. Turns out, they give a damn & more than most as they haven’t forgotten history. They’re not misinformed, Christian Nationalists sheep. I’m proud of us, Alaska 💙🫶🏼

I have been through a traumatic 24 hours and if it wasn’t for this little guy, I’d be even more of a mess. It’s like he knows I just need his kitty cuddles and love. 🐈‍⬛ This is Toby! He’s 3 & my favorite kid right now 😆

Are your elected reps GOP? Since they won't do town halls, please call them today and ask why an unelected billionaire and a bunch of technoboyz barely out of diapers have access (and not just read only; full write access!) to every American's social security number & tax information. Why?!

Was invited to read my children’s book #ImSorryStory with a class in Las Vegas this morning. It was awesome! #ReadAcrossAmerica 📚 @edumatch.bsky.social
Students are facing a screen. The screen shows me reading my children’s book and an illustration from it.

Rep. Lance Gooden ripped a “This is NOT Normal” sign out of Rep. Melanie Stansbury’s hand—on live TV, right before Trump’s speech. When they have to silence you by force, they’ve already proven your point.

"What can I do?" That is the number 1 question I get asked. And at this time in our democracy -- or what remains of it when public servants put their loyalty to a person above their oaths of office— I am grateful that people are asking that question. Below is a video with my answer:
