Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars.
She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

Do you know someone who is unconvinced about the fact that we need to do something about school shootings beyond "thoughts and prayers"?
Show them All the Empty Rooms, a documentary on Netflix. It is only 35 minutes.
It is heartbreaking and heartbreakingly necessary.

Life can change suddenly & drastically. Some changes in my life meant I wanted to spend the holidays alone this year. For Thanksgiving, I traveled to Sedona. I chose the Turkey Creek Trail because (as promised) no one else was there. It was stunning. #sedona #southwest #desert #healing #photography

If—for whatever reason—you don't (or can't) do anything special today, can't (or won't) be with others, won't (even if you want to) celebrate this day, I see you. (In fact, I see us.)
Even if you've muted words, you'll see posts about what others are doing. That's OK.
And so are we. ❤️

The FBI has officially opened inquiry into Sen. Elissa Slotkin, as confirmed by Sen. Slotkin.
This is not a corrupt "administration," as it is not an administration. It is a gaggle of corrupt losers...enabling the most corrupt human being in the history of our country.

1/2 Baby Seymour update: It's been a while since Mom has posted. There's a lot going on. Mom doesn't want to start crying again.
Things're good w/ me. I'm 16 weeks old & almost 5 pounds now! I had my amputation & neuter surgery on 11/10. I climbed to the top of the 6 foot cat tree on 11/11.

Phang: It is a fundamental premise of the law that there is no requirement that a criminal defendant be forced to testify to explain away the government’s evidence. Hallagan went to law school and knows better, but she’s so stupid that she made that misstatement of the law to the grand jury.

It's been a tough fall for all the reasons people who know me IRL understand. I went for a hike into the Mojave desert just north of Las Vegas yesterday. A storm front was moving out. The light & the clouds were dynamic & awe inspiring & a reminder of how quickly life changes. #mojave
