Picture of Ahmeds mother in a tent. Everything is in disarray.

Picture of a collapsed tent on muddy ground. There is a text on the picture of the link to his fundraiser.

We are living through very difficult days…
My father is sick and urgently needs treatment.
Hunger is exhausting my family every single day.
The rain has flooded our tent, and we no longer have safe shelter.
Please, help us in any way you can — our lives are at stake. 🙏

"It’s an abuse of power by an intemperate cable news host using nat'l security law to destroy a company that dared to defy him. It’s also a signal to every govt contractor that negotiating too hard may lead to being exiled from the federal marketplace."

We need to pass a House rule or law that requires them to work a certain number of days to get paid. Since Mike Johnson took over these people hardly ever work. When they finally come back after weeks off they work 2 days and he sends them home for 2 more weeks. It’s ridiculous.

I’m still at the county elections office in Gillespie county Texas, where the republicans are hand counting ballots cast on election day. Waiting on the last of 13 precinct. I saw a fox, but I don’t think you can really tell. This is glamorous work.
