An image we won't soon forget. Attorney General Pam Bondi refused to look at Epstein survivors pictured behind her on the Hill today.

The SAVE Act will prevent many married woman from voting. Under the SAVE Act, if you took your husband's last name and you don't have a valid passport, you can forget about voting. Stop the SAVE Act! It's medieval!

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Made these wool slippers a month or so ago out of thrifted wool suiting, lined with orange wool blanket for pizazz and a felted sole for cushion. Decorated with bits of old sweaters and amateur hand sewing! I LIVE in these! Super cozy. #TwigandTaleWayfarer

With everything going on in my home state of Minnesota lately, it’s been hard to get my sewjo back. Today I sewed a happy #SinclairSofia. French Terry from Amanda’s Bundles.

What if the media just stopped? A total blackout No Trump stories. No White House drama for 1 week.
Instead, flood the airwaves with stories of laid-off workers, families torn apart by ICE, communities fighting to survive. Farmers losing their livelihoods.
America is hurting—and we deserve coverage.

This is Adelita Grijalva.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.
