Jane Goodall was my first childhood hero, as I loved animals as a kid and was inspired by her story. I still remember the National Geographic specials about her. RIP.

Rest in peace, Dr. Jane Goodall.She had always been an inspiration to me as well as a lifelong champion of human stewardship. I’m so sad. She was one of a kind and the Earth will never see anyone like her. #science

There are credible reports that federal agents may be replaying the 2020 playbook and surging into Portland with the goal of provoking conflict and violence in my hometown. I am in close contact with state and local officials to monitor this activity.

HHS Secretary RFK Jr. opened an investigation into the safety of the abortion pill mifepristone, as the anti-abortion movement continues to push the administration to restrict access through lawsuits and policy.

I've seen a lot of people argue that the Democrats lost because they engaged in the "culture war."
I disagree. The Democrats lost because they conceded the culture wars without a fight.

WOW. The lead plaintiff is a Latino man who's been here legally for 24 years. He was grabbed off the street by plainclothes federal agents who didn't even ASK about his status.
He was detained overnight and only released once a supervisor realized he had been illegally arrested.

Just went to Walgreen’s to get my Covid and flu vaccine. They are NOT letting anyone under the age of 65 get a Covid shot. This is absolute bullshit. A man next to me, retired doctor and here for vaccines as well ranting about the nutcase we have leading the HHS.

Trump cancelled meeting w/Dem leaders! He refuses to negotiate or do anything to bring down skyrocketing health care costs. As insurance premiums are rising and his tariffs are breaking Americans’ budgets, he’d rather shut down the government than meet to find solutions.

So, you say it’s fall today. My favorite time of year. Sit back, relax, and soak it all in because winter is coming.

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

Went to Lake of the Woods. Boat motor broke- 15 miles from shore. Tried to troll back to shore and the battery died after 30 minutes. 12 miles being towed back. Not ideal but quite the memory. #minnesota Thanks to the folks from Fargo who spent 2.5 hours dragging us home😂
