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

Marimar Martinez: “The government told the people they were targeting the worst of the worst…They are not targeting the worst of the worst. They are targeting individuals who fit a certain profile, who simply have a certain accent, a non-white skin color, just like me.”

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.

Handmade wool slippers!  Wool suiting, old blanket, felted wool soles, decorated with flowered sweater bits and some really amateur hand sewing!  German Shepherd footrest 🤣

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

Smiling woman wearing her newly sewn Sinclair Sofia sweatshirt, covered in hearts and leopard hearts.

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.

I find that organizing my fabric stash is always very inspiring because I see and touch everything and get lots of new ideas!

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.
