Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.
Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

Rep. Thomas Massie and I wrote to Todd Blanche requesting an in-person review of the full Epstein files.
Although the most in history has been released, DOJ has failed to redact the names of survivors while doing blanket redactions in other areas.
We need justice for the survivors.

This was never about politics for me or Rep. Thomas Massie.
We can't have two systems of justice in America.
That dozens of powerful, famous, and wealthy men are being outed in these files is a moment of national reckoning.
The entire class must go.

How an errand for a 12-year-old immigrant in Minneapolis became an underground operation
Some immigrants in Minneapolis have said they're scared to go out because of ICE agents across the city. When one 12-year-old needed to run an errand, it triggered a network of underground volunteers.

As Colorado’s chief elections officer, Griswold has been at the forefront fighting against the Trump’s unprecedented assault on voting and elections, from the Department of Justice’s quest to obtain sensitive voter data from every state, to reigniting dangerous 2020 conspiracy theories.
Colorado secretary of state: Fulton County raid is ‘weaponization of the justice system’

I am absolutely sickened by the many rich, powerful & famous men whose names are being outed in these files as having gone to Epstein's island.
