This literally did not happen. No children were “lost.” The entire thing stems from a willful misreading of a DHS OIG report.

I'm happy to find you here! I also follow you on YT. ❤️

I'll suffer for the cause, too!

Two years ago today I signed a bill making Minnesota the first state to codify abortion rights after the fall of Roe v. Wade.

Politicians across the nation turned back the clock on reproductive rights. But here in Minnesota, we trust people to make their own decisions.

In 2004, I interviewed for a teaching position. The principal asked me how many kids I had. I answered. He asked if I was planning to have more —said he couldn’t afford to have another teacher out on maternity leave.

This is why women need protections, diversity, equity, and inclusion.

One of the Jan. 6 defendants has turned down Trump's pardon Pamela Hemphill, who pleaded guilty to a single misdemeanor charge and spent 60 days behind bars for her role in the Capitol riots, says she no longer believes the lies President Trump promoted.

The Trump-Vance administration has kicked off their harmful agenda and it will take ALL of us to protect our hard-won freedoms.

We are going to show up in court, in the halls of Congress, and throughout our local communities to protect LGBTQ+ equality. Take action with us: hrc.im/100

Amen.

Thank you from a MN mom of daughters! 💙

If you want to read a new book coming out but don't want to buy it, a great thing you can do is ask your local library to order it. The more requests they get, the more likely they are to acquire it and then lots of people will get to read it who othewise wouldn't.

I Was Kamala Harris’ Videographer. I Wish I Could Show You What I’ve Seen. She completely changed me.

What a beautiful tribute to a worthy lady.

More than 100 Texans active in the Jan. 6 insurrection among those pardoned A Texan was the first to breach the Capitol and many others joined the assault. The presidential pardon helps cast all of them as folk heroes.

“We just released the leaders of two terrorist organizations,” a counterterrorism expert and senior Trump DHS official told me. “In the name of politics, we have just released violent criminals out onto our streets.”

It's -13°, but feels like -36° where I live in MN. I'm grateful for indoor plumbing.

From monumental legislative successes to steady leadership amid our nation’s greatest challenges, Joe Biden gave us 4 years of reunification, recovery, and revitalization. Trump will try to steal the credit, but it was Biden who delivered it for us. Thank you, President Biden.

‘Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.’ — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

On #MLKDay, we honor his legacy by choosing love over hate, justice over injustice, and hope over fear.

Dr. King spread a message of justice and persisted in the face of hatred.
 
His legacy calls us to serve each other and to continue striving towards a more inclusive and united Minnesota.

We honor him despite today's inauguration. His words remind us to persevere.

I listen to Spotify for music and podcasts. It has audio books, too.

Trump on Elon Musk: "He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide."

UPDATE:

No other allied country has banned Tiktok. All your favorite content creator's videos are still there and they are still getting views from other countries, just not America.

This is totally a stunt to make Donald Trump look amazing. Welcome to fascism. Create a fake problem & solve it.

Johnson says ‘we will enforce the law’ on TikTok ban, 2 GOP senators break with Trump on extension In a statement, senators disputed President-elect Donald Trump's suggestion that he would "most likely" give TikTok a 90-day extension to bring the app back.

Now the Dems need to hold Mike Johnson’s feet to the f’n fire when he said he will enforce the law on the TikTok ban.

Here's a breakdown:

If you’re overwhelmed, pause.

If you’re uncertain, reflect.

If you’re angry, breathe.

If you’re lonely, reach out.

If you’re lost, explore.

If you’re scared, take one step forward.

If you’re stuck, move.

If you’re doubting yourself, remember why you started.

And there it is. Scam and grift revealed. Watch who gets rich off this. Interested also to see how legacy media covers this, which has been putrid so far.
