"We were able to put smiles on children’s faces and provide people with their simplest rights food, dignity, and hope.” —Mohammed, WCK Gaza

A tweet from MeidasTouch reads: “She can’t work for her constituents because you won’t swear her into her job. My god these people.” Below, a tweet from Aaron Rupar quotes Mike Johnson saying: “Rep. Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office.” The image shows a CNN broadcast with two men in split-screen — anchor Jake Tapper on the left and Mike Johnson on the right — with a headline reading: “GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN DRAGS INTO 16TH DAY.”

Y’all here is a fun fact: Portland has a brand new volunteer organization called “operation inflation” that allows people to borrow inflatable costumes for protests. They just started a couple weeks ago and have like a 160 costume library (and counting because people keep donating).
