@brandonsanderson.com There are a lot of amazing chapters in #WindandTruth but as I reread the book, I'm particularly moved by chapter 125: One Man Against a Tide.
I could read an entire novel about Adolin Kholin. So grateful for the art you've created & the stories you tell. #StormlightArchive ❤️

Hundreds protest outside Rep. Stauber’s meeting with Carlton County Republicans
Protesters are demanding more in-person townhalls from the Congressman and say he hasn’t been responsive enough to all of his constituents.

Pete Stauber is incredibly incompetent and only works in the interest of foreign businesses but is rabidly opposed to immigration. If only immigrants slipped money into his pocket like the mining companies and Israel does.
these 25 congresspeople think it should be a crime for you to not buy a thing because you don’t want your proceeds to go to companies that help prop up a genocide.

After denying his own #tariff orders, he is economically incompetent, for sure.

Today House Republicans, cheered on by the richest person on Earth, passed a budget framework that will cut support for the poorest people in our country.
All while cutting taxes for corporations and the wealthy, and massively increasing the deficit.

Well, I'm just tickled about Wisconsin. Florida Dreamers need to wake up about it being a swing state. It's solidly conservative and will continue unless something changes.
And Cory Booker killed it.
Speaking of killing things, stock markets should be fun tomorrow after Trump's #tariff reveal.

Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
