I’m a wife, mom, knitter, reader living in the Southern U.S. I’ve been a liberal Democrat my whole life. My family have lived in Arkansas since before statehood. I believe in democracy and not taking away people’s rights to live as they choose.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.
12 days of work in over 3 months.
With full pay and benefits.
The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

My two takeaways on this:
1. CNN's CEO is utterly craven. No surprise there.

Watch this.
Open your eyes to this brutality.
ICE beats up, drags & abducts this disabled visually impaired man.
Now share this.
Everyone must see the brutality of this administration & ask themselves what they are doing to push back.
You have power.
Even sharing this video exerts that power.
