I had to compose myself before posting—because this breaks a part of my soul.
If you’re a contractor with a segregation policy, say it loud—so non-white dollars don’t fund your business. It won’t go how you think.
And if anyone uncovers businesses doing this, put them on blast.

Pitch perfect response from Georgetown Law reminding Ed Martin that it’s wildly inappropriate on both religious liberty and free speech grounds for him to attempt to use the power of his (interim) office to dictate what curriculum is “unacceptable” at the university.
This is the way…
“The elected officials in Washington have to stop protesting in Washington. They have to go back to their districts…show the consequences…show the school that isn’t operating…they have to make it real.”
With social media, word will spread to neighboring districts—even red ones.
This UNBELIEVABLE 15-year-old with college and masters degrees is in medical school working on a doctorate,,, but federal funding has cut off her research and scholarships.
We NEED more doctors,,, especially little black and brown girls to grow up believing they can be anything.

I was there, too. I feel good about the "Do your job!" chants. I hope they really heard us. Good turnout, and we have more marching to do.
Shut down the senate until it's guaranteed. Please help stop this chaos.
I said this to my friends earlier. I’m still tired from the last ones, but let’s go.
RIP affordable avocados. 😭
Happy Black History Month, and yeah, we're still doing that.
I have been really struggling with this. And every time I forget it for a minutes, I’m jarred back into reality and anxiety.
This one made my stomach turn. This is not good.
Honestly, me too. As soon as I saw this news, I ran through my upcoming work trips. I can get to all by train.

I’m sad to learn that my law school classmate, Kiah Duggins, died in the DC plane crash last night.
Kiah was an exceptionally talented civil rights lawyer and aspiring legal scholar.
I hope you’ll read about her work and the causes she cared about, some of which I’ll 🧵 below.
What an immense loss
Hey @booker.senate.gov!!! DO IT!!!!
In shock about the crash over the Potomac. Was just driving over the river yesterday with my daughter admiring how peaceful it looked with the last of the ice remaining. God bless those families and souls.
We have the same plans this weekend. Really diving in to the current vibe.
One thing we’ve learned this year for certain is that you don’t need to be good person to get the top job. I’m so embarrassed for us.
me: i have a bunch of anxiety rn
brain: how bout a coffee
me: idk sounds like a bad idea
brain: iced coffee
me: ok yeah that makes more sense
In DC we create mother/daughter holiday memories by going to Angela Merkel and Barack Obama at The Anthem. 🤘🏻
So a reminder:
It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom.
It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president.
It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child.
For the record.
It’s Thanksgiving in our house when I break out the best cookbook to come from my home state. 💛💙 Happy Thanksgiving, Bluesky!
"If a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect your genitals to use a bathroom? It's disgusting.
Everyone should reject it completely... they're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kind, and everyone should reject it. It's gross." - AOC
