Today's ACLU luncheon in Chicago. It feels good to be in a huge room full of people fighting the authoritarianism & rank corruption threatening to take down this great country. @aclu.org
Former Congressperson @marienewman.bsky.social is one of the most insightful political observers around. What a treat to hear her read from her fantastic new book, A Life Made From Scratch. It's part memoir, part backstage pass and part rallying cry. Absolutely designed for this moment!
Between this gorgeous 79ยฐ-degrees-in-march weather we are having here in chicago and the week i've had ... Iโve made the executive decision that dinner tonight shall be two scoops of my famous homemade mint chocolate chip ice cream.
Been using ChatGPT as a thinking partner in my biz lately and it's been a game-changer. ๐คฏ By splitting strategy mode from execution mode (using AI as sounding board) my productivity has skyrocketed.
I'm now thinking about creating a training course w specifics. Would anyone like a free 1st look?
So they wanna stop using tax dollars to pay for *poor people's* unhealthy beverage choices. Got it.
So do they also want taxpayers to stop paying for the President's case-a-day diet coke habit?? ๐ค

We lost a good one today. May her memory be a blessing.
Jennifer rubin already blew it as a warrior for truth when on Harry's show last night she said - twice - "he denies it," re hegseths sexual assault accusations.
You instead needed to point out that when *under oath* during his hearing, he did NOT deny it; instead we got "anonymous smears." Smh
One thing i've done is created a list called " people I know personally". The feed from that list sort of replicates facebook ๐คทโโ๏ธ

Who remembers what we used to do in a cab at night, before cell phones? Just look out the window right?? ๐ค
Hey Elon - we'll give you no Federal regulations if you want. But only if you return all the billions in Federal welfare you've received.
We got a deal? I'll wait.
Who likes a little charcuterie and sweets on a cold Friday night? Smoky says why yes, please, I don't mind if I do.
Absolutely, live in joy. We just can't for a moment forget that so many are poised to exploit any weakness, in order to intentionally and significantly harm us.
Boundaries and self protection - your own oxygen mask - have to be our primary goal. I fear that pursuit of joy sometimes obscures this.
But then what's the verb? "Senator Warren blueyed yesterday that ..."
In general, sure. But I fear our side is suffering from a debilitating deficiency of righteous rage.
Mason - hopefully you'll have an impact on some of the men you work with. Thanks for standing up for women.
Have you actually heard it said in your presence?
So seriously. What are YOU all doing about it? How are you standing up for us in this particular fight, where we don't have anything left to fight for ourselves? (3/3)
Because i cannot express in words how exhausting / enraging this is for me (and most women?) to hear. Honest to god, it just makes me go to lorraine bobbit. That's how disempowered and out of options this level of pernicious, taunting threat makes me feel. (2/3)
Men - what are you doing about other men who are saying "Your body, my choice?" I truly want to hear from you. (1/3)
If I followed you, it's probably because we used to follow each other on Twitter. I used this:

Nice of Mayor Pete and Call-Me-Lauren to come out and be with the people tonight.
