The NV Democratic Congressional delegation have all posted statements on the horrific murder in Minneapolis this weekend, but Cong Mark Amodei has evidently been too busy this weekend to update even his "X" account (he does not have a Bluesky account). His last post on Friday was a pro-DHS diatribe.
