Nevertheless, I persist in believing that when we fight, we win.
When we talk about public safety, that has to include supporting survivors. If you need support, it's available 24/7. For NM-specific resources, visit NMCADV.org. And this DVAM, I want to especially thank the advocates and health care providers who serve survivors in New Mexico.
A nation that livestreams an execution cannot claim to be a Christian nation, or a civilized one, for that matter… It just can’t. Pathetic. 😎✨
Folks, please join me in contacting your Congressmembers to say NO to this! This is beyond depraved, a new low even for this vile administration! 😳

How #AccessHollywood was not the end to his wretched campaign, I will never understand:

Call it what it is: a pay-for-access grift. The top 185 Trump coin holders get a costly dinner, the top four get a gold watch, and buyers have lost an estimated $4.7 billion while Trump banks $635 million. The most corrupt meme coin dinner in history. #CostOfTrumpsCorruption
In lieu of a Nobel Peace Prize - which is surely in the mail on its way to Mar-a-Lago - the European Parliament has unveiled a tribute to Trump called the "Orange Plague." youtube.com/shorts/XwCXa...

The Oval Office is starting to look like a checkout counter. The White House launches Trump TV, and three days later Trump’s own company files to trademark the name. Whose channel is it, if taxpayers launched it and his family business wants the name? #CostOfTrumpsCorruption
Trump’s golf habit has cost at least $101.2 million, often at his own properties, and $20 million meant for border security and fallen officers’ memorials went to ads about him. Brazen grifting. Families stretching a paycheck should be furious. #CostOfTrumpsCorruption
A judge ordered press access restored Sept. 24, so the White House blocked CNN from Air Force One, then barred Politico Monday, calling plane travel a “privilege, not a right.” Meanwhile, Trump’s company is trademarking Trump TV. Who decides what you see? #CostOfTrumpsCorruption
#CostOfTrumpsCorruption Imagine being so sure voters would hate your plan that you hide it until Nov. 4th. That’s reportedly the deal on abortion pills, mail delivery, even travel across state lines. You’ve got a ballot and a few weeks. Be the surprise they didn’t plan for. #ReproductiveJustice
#CostOfTrumpsCorruption Seriously, how does anyone call mail voting “inherently corrupt” in July, then post a video telling Republicans to vote by mail? A third of 2024 ballots came that way. The scare story he sold his own voters just fell apart, and he’s hoping nobody noticed.
Trump is sending $90 Medicare rebates to more than 20 million seniors, announced weeks before the midterms. That’s at least $1.8 billion of public money, packaged as a presidential gift. Seniors can read a calendar, and they know whose money it is. #CostOfTrumpsCorruption
Whoopi Goldberg says Americans don’t feel like being bought, and she’s right. Look at the calendar: $5,000 checks promised only if Republicans keep Congress, $90 Medicare rebates landing weeks before Nov. 3. Voters paying more all year can spot a scam. #CostOfTrumpsCorruption
Pay big, get time with the president. That’s the Trump coin dinner pitch, and a similar event last year reportedly drew almost $2 billion. Trump’s made $635 million off the coin while buyers of his crypto lost an estimated $4.7 billion. Shameless. #CostOfTrumpsCorruption

While Trump begged for votes at home, two of his top advisers, James Blair and Chris LaCivita, were reportedly in Bosnia taking hundreds of thousands of dollars each from a Putin-aligned government to advise its election. Whose side were they on this week? #CostOfTrumpsCorruption
My Gen-X brain just belched this up. Anybody else remember “The Funky Phantom”?

#CostOfTrumpsCorruption CNN, MS Now and Politico got banned from the White House, a judge ordered access restored Sept. 24, and CNN’s still blocked from the plane. Meanwhile Trump’s company is filing to trademark Trump TV. Reporters shut out, family brand cashing in.
All across America, people are waking up to the possibility of a renewed and "More Perfect Union." Organize. Mobilize. Vote Blue, for yourself and for those you love! We the People can do better!
Remember when they promised to root out waste, fraud and abuse? Turns out they just had to look in the mirror. Over $1.8 billion on vanity projects while your groceries, rent and health care keep getting pricier. Want to cut the waste? Vote early and send a message.
Great gosh-amighty, don’t sleep on @BoulTawnBakeryCafe in Santa Fe, NM! I stumbled across it while on my way to another bakery. #Serendipity
