I wrote More Than Ready for women, particularly women of color, because we are the leaders the world needs right now. You'll find stories from 7 amazing women, along with my own lessons on things like doubt, fear and kindness. Order here: indiebound.org/book/978158005…

🧵It’s Election Day, and I wanted to share my observances in Philadelphia as a “retired” GOP operative now working in public affairs. First, I want to talk about what I’ve seen in my own neighborhood.
I am honestly upset that changing the clocks tomorrow means there’s a whole additional hour between us and the election.
A frank and productive exchange of views with my counterpart on key issues like expanding the global supply of candy and toys and tightening sanctions against chores.
The folks at @protctdemocracy keep putting out bangers like this. Legitimately useful info.
The @americanacad has recognized the legendary Willie Velasquez, who founded the first Latino voter registration organization, among its first class of legacy honorees. An eloquent piece from @WeAreUnidosUS on why this matters: unidosus.org/blog/2024/10/2…
Was so glad to see clips of @MichelleObama speaking frankly about this election’s threat to women’s bodies. But to watch the clips the @nytimes required an ad featuring a Black female model wearing nothing but boots. 2 clips, 2 ads. It wasn’t just ironic, it was infuriating.
Folks: the problem here is not the (overwhelmingly excellent) journalists at the WaPo. The problem is that its owner, Jeff Bezos, is trashing its reputation and stifling independent journalism as a favor to Donald Trump. And billionaires who do favors expect to be repaid.
If billionaires and newspapers are refusing to endorse against Trump *before* he's even in power, imagine how they'll act when he can direct the federal govt against them. Imagine how the press will act after FOUR years of this. How will voters get accurate information in 2028?
Looks like the billionaire owner is pre-emptively cozying up to Donald Trump in order to curry favor for more riches. But you know who suffers? All the rest of us. Our freedoms. Putin, Trump, Musk and the oligarchs are on the same team and its not ours.
Just... impossible timing for this announcement to be read as a statement of principle

A truly lovely Hispanic Heritage reflection on what it means to be a Latino public servant by the very eloquent @alvarombedoya ftc.gov/legal-library/…
I recently had the opportunity to chat with @NewAmerica about the complex U.S. Latino experience. Five other leaders in policy, philanthropy, technology, and conservation also joined in the discussion. Learn more: newamerica.org/new-america/bl…

America is a nation of laws and a nation of immigrants, and Carlos' story is a reminder of the dangerous consequences that Donald Trump's rhetoric can have on our communities. We can – and should – expect better from our leaders. nytimes.com/2024/10/13/opi…

Trump's final budget request to Congress called to cut hurricane tracking by more than a third
Trump's final budget called to cut federal disaster response funding by nearly two-thirds. Maybe he was thinking that his proposal for nuking hurricanes would be successful, so we wouldn't need as much funding?
Literally just LAST WEEK, House Republicans blocked preemptive additional funding for responding to Hurricane Helene from being included in the government funding bill (CR).
