Minnesota curler, Rich Ruohonen, at the 2026 Winter Olympics:

“[W]hat the Olympics means is excellence, respect, friendship. And we all, I think, exemplify that. We are playing for the people of Minnesota and the people around the country who share those same values.”

How cool is it that that a woman who went to medical school in Minnesota and learned to cross country ski here is the first Mexican female to compete in the sport in Olympics. And Jessie Diggins met her at the finish line. The video is heart-melting.
Regina Martínez Lorenzo is the first Mexican woman to compete in Olympics cross-country skiing.

Other racers waited at the finish line to hug her. Brazil’s Bruna Moura, an 3 medalists, Karlsson, Ebba Andersson of Sweden, and Jessie Diggins from the US.

She learned to ski while in med school in MN.
Glad you brought this up - this Mexican is the first and only in this sport, and everyone was impressed by her determination - the USA gold medalists were so sweet, she removed her skis and hugged her dearly. The MSNBC cut out all of it. Why? That's the best of the #Olympics! empathy and love.

My favorite photos from the Olympics are of this Italian figure skater Daniel Grassl. He looks absolutely insane in so many of them. It's great.

Disgraceful fraud John Fetterman is calling on all Senate Democrats to vote in favor of DHS/ICE-Gestapo funding.

This piece has been viewed over 14 million times over the last 48 hours. Unbelievable.

I'm so encouraged to see how many people are as disgusted by this as I am.

Sometimes you just need to be reminded that you're not alone.

Keep fighting, good people!

Sadly, ICE learned what not to do in Minnesota… they have not left… but are spreading out in disguise tricking and nabbing people before we can respond. We need a new plan….

Great sitting down with Brian Tyler Cohen to talk about everything from the courage we saw in Minnesota, to how Democrats can be true to our values and get stuff done, to how we’re building a community of changemakers at the Obama Foundation. youtube.com/watch?v=uI-hgSE5QIw

The President of the United States raped underage women.
Attorney General Pam Bondi has seen the proof in the Epstein files and doesn't care.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Even in the darkest night, when all hope seems lost,
Stand fast for what is right, no matter what the cost.
Remember that you cannot lose, despite the loss and sorrow.
We can only change the things we choose, and the sun will rise tomorrow.

Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.
