The fact that I know more about Katy Perry and Lauren Sánchez’s 11-minute space trip than I do about Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito’s decades-long crime spree shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

Disappearing people without any due process is fascism — full stop. I’m sick to my stomach and we all should be.

Janet is supporting our campaign because she knows that I'm delivering for the people of Pittsburgh.
From new housing units to an unprecedented amount of new federal and state funding (read: $328+ Million 👀) to a new police contract, we are building a safe, thriving city for all!

As we honor our Trans and non-binary community, we have to call out the attacks they face every day.
Right now, UPMC is doing Trump's bidding as he escalates the attacks on the Trans community and healthcare for vulnerable Americans.
Join us on Thursday to fight back. 2/2

I loved being at the Freeman Family Farm & Greenhouse to talk with our neighbors on the Northside about how we're building a city for all!
We’ve built more affordable housing than any admin in 20 years + deployed the 1st Food Justice fund to feed our communities.
Let's get it done!

Bravo! The ONLY way all law firms should be responding.
This is how law firms should do it.
