A year ago today, @gmgronowski & I found ourselves houseless along with hundreds of residents at Arrive Silver Spring after a horrific & PREVENTABLE fire ravaged the building on Feb. 18, taking the life of our neighbor Melanie Diaz and her two dogs. 🧵/1

here’s pete hegseth, fox news host and trump’s pick for secretary of defense, nearly killing a drummer with an axe on live TV

Trump has named Pete Hegseth--TV host, author and veteran--to be his Secretary of Defense. Confirmation hearings should be interesting.

Pete Hegseth has made it clear that, like Trump, he is stridently opposed to “woke” programs that promote equity and inclusion. He’s also questioned the role of women in combat and advocated pardoning service members charged with war crimes. stripes.com/theaters/us/20…

Governor Andy Beshear, in a Trump +30 state, gives advice to Democrats: Do not throw LGBTQ+ people under the bus, it will not work. His advice to dems: Lead on your values. This man ran on a fully inclusive campaign in 2023 and won. He received the same kind of ads Harris did.

Friday was my final day with The Baltimore Sun. I resigned my role because of growing concerns about the direction of criminal justice coverage under new ownership. How stories are written and which stories are written matters.


four people ordered me to download BlueSky within the past week, so here I am: bsky.app/profile/mxespe…

Dems going after trans people this week should be ashamed of themselves. A response to @RepMoulton, @RepTomSuozzi, and @mattyglesias lawdork.com/p/dems-post-el…


I think these types of dog whistles deserve to be called out. anyone who voted for Trump did not "choose love."

Some immediate steps I believe that all trans people should take: - Get your passport. Today. It takes time to come in and this will likely be shut down under Trump. - Update every ID your state allows you to. - Make sure you have a supply of medication in case of disruption

To my trans community, to the parents of queer kids, to LGBTQ folks scared today - your fear and concern is so valid. And, we can do this. We’re actually so prepared to take on this fight. Our community has been in this fight, like in state legislatures, for years. 🧵

IDK i think when an election has many many innocent people fearing for their lives or contemplating suicide something might be very very wrong

Incredible news. Zooey Zephyr, my fiancée, was re-elected to the Montana House of Representatives, getting 83% of the vote. Many of you will remember her for standing up for trans people in Montana, and then getting censured and kicked off the House floor. I'm so proud of her.

It is an honor to have been re-elected to the Montana House of Representatives. And I promise to do as I have always done: fight for my constituents, stand up against those who seek to break democracy, and be a bulwark against the rising tide of American fascism.

My gratitude to the people of Maryland’s 8th District for your generous support, solidarity and activism over the course of this extraordinary and historic campaign. I’m honored by your friendship and humbled to get the chance to serve you once more in the people’s House.

For the first time in history, the United States has a sitting congressperson who is transgender. Congratulations to Sarah McBride, whose race was just called by MSNBC. She wins in a year where a historic amount of anti-trans ads were blared across TV screens in America.

I've lost count of how many times @Cheryl4moco has ran for office in MoCo but watching her get obliterated by @jamie_raskin was exactly the therapy I needed today

THANK YOU! I’m honored to have been re-elected to serve another term in the United States Congress. 3 years ago, I set out to run for Congress in a large field. We defied the odds and not only won the race, but had a productive first term. Let’s gooo! 🤠

Final tally: According to data from @Ad_Impact, Republicans spent nearly $215 million on network TV ads that paint trans people as a national threat. This figure does not include cable or streaming ads. There are 1.6 million trans people over the age of 13 in the U.S.

I’m not a puppet Elon.. I’m a daughter of two immigrant parents that had to work their ass off to provide for me! I’m a product of welfare, I’m a product of section 8, I’m a product of poverty and I’m a product of what happens when the system is set up against you….But you don’t…

Another puppet who can’t even talk without being fed the words. The Kamala campaign has no authenticity or true empathy.
