In 2020 & 2022, she has kids. Both have special needs. She lives on the road with them, flying around the world for months at a time to compete in bobsled.
And THEN! At 41! She wins her first gold.

Rep. Walkinshaw leaving today’s ICE hearing: “All of this comes from Stephen Miller’s sick, twisted, deranged Great Replacement Theory.” He says when Dems have the majority they will subpoena Miller to testify: “If he doesn’t he will end up in prison for contempt.” @pabloreports.bsky.social

For all the actively evil billionaires like Bezos, let’s not forget the however many other billionaires/100millionaires who have the chance to right the wrongs of the Bezos class and instead continue to just hoard money and power, if more quietly. They all fucking suck.

No. Commonsense reform is to burn ICE to the waterline and scatter the rubble so that all of us who value a constitutional republic with a Bill of Rights can prevent such a monstrosity from ever being constructed again.
And nothing above is hyperbole.
God, but you are not a leader for this time.

Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:
End the roving patrols and racial profiling.
Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.
Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.
Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

These fuckers tossed flash bangs and gas canisters this evening and there were lots of kids around. It was a peaceful demonstration by union folks and lots of them brought their families.

Last meeting of a long day of a longer week in the longest month ever. I look like I’ve been held underwater for all of it, but also: I think this is the first time I have an actual beard-like thing on my face? Lots of stubble and scruff times in the past. This is at least close to a beard.

"In theater" is a nice touch for describing Minneapolis. Worth noting the people involved, from Trump to Miller to Noem to Homan to Bovino to the majority of ICE and CBP goons, have never served in the military. They're playing out a war fantasy, dressing up in army costumes, like incredible losers.
Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?
HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down
