Today was a kick in the ass. Too many words for a skeet and I wanted to share with yall because it helps to let it out. I’m deeply sad and horrified about the state of America tonight and am motivated by today’s events in the oval. Be well 🙏🏽

We cannot let this be normal. A sitting United States President has called for ‘death’ to sitting Members of Congress.

New Yorkers kept telling me the same thing: they’re thinking of leaving because they can’t afford to raise their kids here. Universal childcare isn’t just a promise — it’s how we make this a city for everyone.
