Outside groups have spent more than $60 million trying to get Haley Stevens elected. Call me crazy, but if it takes $60 million to convince Michigan you're the best person for the job, maybe it's because you're not the best person for the job.

Still not over the fact that Lizzy Savetsky really put her lips together to say that Elon Musk can't be antisemitic because he had a baby with a Jewish woman. As if he didn't do a whole a** sieg heil on live television! SMFH.

The guy who did a sieg heil just became the world’s first trillionaire? Yeah that checks out.

In 1990, five individuals left a burning cross in the yard of a biracial family on the North Side of Chicago. One of those individuals possessed KKK literature. They were ultimately charged with ethnic intimidation.

In many ways calling states red or blue is a misnomer. 1) No state is monolithic politically and 2) the sweeping presumption that blue states are automatically safe is reductive. Bigotry lives everywhere.

This week a cross was set on fire in Grant Park, right in the heart of downtown Chicago. For over 100 years the KKK has burned crosses to terrorize and intimidate Black communities. Those cross burnings were often accompanied by lynchings. So to see something like this in my city is horrifying.

During WWI and WWII millions of victory gardens popped up across the country. I just don't think it's a coincidence that gardening has become such a huge trend online over the last few months. In times of strife, we often turn to food sovereignty practices for relief.

Seeing AI slop on my feed genuinely pisses me off

One thing to know about me is that I am absolutely obsessed with living a non-toxic healthy lifestyle. You would not believe how many hours I've spent researching food supply chains and meticulously selecting beauty and household products from the EWG website.

The food is poisoned with pesticides. The water is filled with pfas chemicals. The livestock is pumped full of growth hormones and antibiotics. And there are microplastics in f*cking everything! Are we just supposed to go along and pretend like this is normal??

I was today years old when I learned that the Heritage Foundation had a Black woman president from 2018-2021. Her name is Kay Coles James and she has spent her entire career curating conservative policies, first under Ronald Reagan and later under George H.W. Bush.

Do No Harm, a conservative advocacy group, is suing a website called ‘Find A Black Doctor’ and its owner for supposedly discriminating against physicians on the basis of race. It’s never enough for them to just have what they have, they have to take away what we have too.

Anti-Muslim bigotry is escalating. But instead of treating it like an emergency, Republicans and Democrats alike continue creating permission structures that cost our Muslim family and friends their lives. It’s unconscionable and inexcusable.

This is Hawaa Abdullah speaking about her father, Amin Abdullah, who was one of three people murdered by white supremacists at the Islamic Center of San Diego yesterday. The attackers reportedly covered their weap0ns and clothing with Nazi imagery.

The more I learn about how f*cked up and toxic our food system is, the more clear it becomes to me that food sovereignty is paramount for collective liberation.

My healthcare premium went up so much this year that I had to change my health insurance. Unfortunately, this meant I was no longer in network with my wonderful therapist of nearly 4 years. Today, after 4 months of a care lapse, I finally met with a new in-network therapist. And WHAT A RELIEF!

In 2025 alone, there were 616 anti-LGBTQ+ bills introduced to U.S. state legislatures. SIX. HUNDRED. AND. SIXTEEN. As a Black, Jewish, and queer person, I know scapegoating and Christian nationalism when I see it.

POV: You just heard that two transgender residents of Kansas are suing the state after it invalidated their driver’s licenses without warning

So you’re telling me that child marriage is still legal in Kansas, but it’s illegal for a trans person to have a driver’s license or birth certificate with their aligned gender identity? This country is so a** backwards.

Trump lied to the nation tonight and said the SAVE Act will protect our elections from fraud. The truth? We don’t have a voter fraud issue, we have a voter suppression issue.

What we got versus what we ordered

Congressman Al Green holding up a sign that says "Black People Aren't Apes" as Trump walked to the podium for SOTU is powerful symbolism. Last year he was censured for disrupting Trump's address, and this year he's bringing that same energy. This is good trouble.

MAGA: We're not a cult, stop calling us that! Also MAGA:

Reporting live from the Capitol! I guess this is just gonna be a diatribe of straight lies. Buckle in folks.

At this point if Trump being racist *shocks you* then you’ve either been living under a rock or you’re willfully ignorant. Regardless, I fear y’all are failing an open book test.

Much of the Midwest is under a severe weather advisory right now. Temperatures are in the negatives with wind chills as low as 25 below zero. I need you to understand how badass it is that thousands of people still showed up and showed out.

Massive anti-ICE protest in Minneapolis today draws thousands despite -10 degree weather. Their statewide strike calls for no work, no school, no shopping, and ICE out of Minnesota FOR GOOD. Cheering you on from Illinois!

Fled Cruz back at it again with his same old shenanigans. This time, fleeing to California while Texans brace themselves for a severe ice storm. It's giving me flashbacks to 2021 when we were freezing in our homes and he was jetting off to Cancún. A pitiful excuse for leadership.

Where one form of bigotry is tolerated, others will inevitably fester. Our liberation has never been individual. Our safety has never been siloed. Community is how we get free.

As a Black Jew, moments like this remind me why an intersectional lens is critical. This synagogue has long been a symbol of Black and Jewish solidarity. As both the only synagogue in Jackson and the largest synagogue in Mississippi, it carries tremendous symbolic weight.
