A Florida Judge tried to strip me of my law license after I objected to ICE fascism As major law firms capitulate to Trump & offer up $100M in free legal services to appease him—I am refusing to bend the knee & instead speaking out publicly. https://t.co/Zt6ZzeVPY6

With costs already out of control, Big Pharma is further trying to exploit us with their special interest bill SB 41—which will raise premiums for workers, small businesses, & patients.😐 Tell @CAgovernor to veto this absurd bill and reject Big Pharma. https://t.co/ntciYFZfIv

A ceasefire in Gaza is a first step. But we cannot stop here. We need immediate aid, accountability for those who committed genocide & more crimes, & Palestinian statehood. Sign the global petition to demand US Government recognize the state of Palestine: https://t.co/lPaYVVvqdb

I'm cautiously hoping that this will be the time a peace deal holds. We've seen false starts before, so I'm warily optimistic. However, it's important to stop the bombing, to release the hostages, and to rebuild and deliver urgently needed aid to Gaza. When I say rebuild, I

Once upon a time CBS was the home of Walter Cronkite, “the most trusted man in America.” This week CBS announced it will be the home of a new editor-in-chief, Bari Weiss, a right wing firebrand who made her name by getting professors fired for criticizing the Israeli government.

THANK YOU, CHICAGO.
Kristi Noem is complaining that ICE and Border Patrol agents have it really tough in Chicago because the restaurants won't let them use their bathrooms or serve them food. But I thought Republicans loved free market capitalism? 😅 Don't mess with Chicago! ❤️✊🏽

The Atlantic—one of America’s most prolific corporate media outlets—published a hit piece on me. They attacked my values & my advocacy—and got most everything wrong. Here’s my rebuttal. I doubt they’ll issue a retraction—but my receipts are undeniable. https://t.co/KQmK0NuqE7

From Iraq to Trump to Gaza, America’s pundit class has perfected the art of being wrong and profiting from it. It’s long past time we hold them accountable.

This week The Atlantic & Johnathan Chait published a hit piece on me replete with disinformation. I’m compelled to write this rebuttal. Such pundits have caused incalculable harm to our public discourse, & its long past time to call out their hypocrisy.
