Grief counselor: "When did you first notice the change?" Me: "It started small. I stopped knowing what 'horsepower' means. 'Topping off' stopped meaning gas — now it's twenty minutes plugged in out of boredom." Counselor: "Will you ever go back?" Me: "Back to what? Paying $50 to make a noise?' #EV

Food safety shouldn't be a gamble. That's what government is FOR. Nearly 7,000 cyclospora cases across 34 states this year — worst outbreak in a decade. Tracing the source took months because RFK cut CDC's early-warning system to just 2 pathogens. Tell your reps: restore the funding. #FoodSafety
A win worth celebrating: a judge ruled Trump's IRS lawsuit and $1.8B anti-weaponization fund were brought in bad faith. His lawyers got sanctioned. Bonus: it lands as Todd Blanche fights AG confirmation, fresh off Maxwell prison-transfer questions. Rule of law: 1. Corruption: 0. buff.ly/2qFEvYF
Voters decide. Courts confirm. Trump's reviving 2020 lies to sow doubt before we vote — a bid to seize power and deny results. That's desperation. 60 court rulings, even from his own appointees, rejected these claims. Vote. Help others vote. Join those protecting democracy. #ProtectTheVote

Governor Hobbs vetoed 88 harmful bills passed by right-wing extremists in the AZ legislature — including attacks on free speech, ballot access, and election integrity. This is what it looks like when someone does the job. Thank you, Governor. 🙌 #AZPolitics

🚗 EV fence-sitters, take note. Costs last night to charge a new EV $3.23. Costs for similar range from our previous gas car: $40. No more oil changes, emissions tests, fuel filters, air filters, timing belts, transmission service, or exhaust repairs. Annual maintenance ~$430/yr vs. ~$900/yr.
Arizonans lost $177 million in 2025 to crypto ATM scans. The CLARITY Act will make it harder for law enforcement to stop crypto crimes, including money-laundering. Join me in calling Senator Gallego and telling him to vote NO on this bill.
Protecting consumers from insider trading is a hallmark of great leadership. The CLARITY Act lacks ethics rules to stop officials from profiting off crypto while writing the laws. We look to Sen. Gallego to lead the way on transparency. Vote NO. 📞 (202) 224-4521 @gallego.senate.gov

Digital security as organizing practice
The movement is being watched. This is not paranoia — it is the operating environment. The question facing every organizing group is not whether to take security seriously. It is whether to build it into the movement's DNA before it's needed, or to scramble after something goes wrong.
