She's finally been sworn in.
But the 50 days in limbo won't be forgotten:
“For Speaker Johnson to be so dismissive of 813,000 people in southern Arizona is not acceptable,” Grijalva says. “And it really highlights how corrupt this system can be under a certain kind of leader.”

Grijalva: “While we celebrate this moment today, our American promise is under serious threat…What is most concerning is not what this administration has done, but what the majority in this body has failed to do: hold Trump accountable as a coequal branch of government that we are.”

A normal reaction to today's news, dear Nancy, would be to express shock and horror at the significant possibility that the president of the United States is a child molester.

No matter what this meeting is about, Pete will always be a National Guardsman assigned to a Civil Affairs unit who got a bunch of crusader tattoos in his 40s because he wants you to think he's a cool, war-criming operator instead of an extremely online wife-beating loser

Disabled activist Carol Olinger is still in custody after peacefully protesting GOP Medicaid cuts.
She needs insulin NOW & has kidney dialysis at 6am.
This is medical neglect—cruel and deliberate. Her life is at risk.
We demand her release & care. Please share widely!

Only 3/4 of WI 5 & 6 year-olds up to date on MMR vax. This state could make the TX outbreak look tiny. Across TX 94% were up to date, but the county where the outbreak started was at abt 80%. Measles will blow up across the entire state of WI if a seed case lands in the wrong spot there.
Nearly every Wisconsin county last year vaccinated a lower share of kindergarten-aged children for MMR than before the pandemic. Menominee County, home to the Menominee Indian tribe of Wisconsin, was the lone exception, according to Wisconsin Department of Health Services data.
DataWatch: Measles will likely arrive in Wisconsin. Here’s where vaccination rates are trending

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered.
Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again.
Their inaction is deadly.
