This is Carolyn Edwards. She was one of the first officers attacked and knocked out on January 6th. She bravely testified before the January 6th committee. She is one of the bravest people I know and she deserves better. (She posted this publicly on her FB page which is why I'm sharing publicly)

Pete Hegseth is the most unqualified nominee for Secretary of Defense in modern history.

He should be rejected by the Senate.

MAGA white supremacist scumbag Stephen Miller says immigrant children in elementary schools are not safe from being detained by ICE agents whilst in school. I’ll never forgive anyone who voted for this absolute evil.

Or in prison.
