A brown pelican glides with wings spread above choppy ocean water, silhouetted against a pale, hazy dawn sky with two pelicans slightly out-of-focus in the distance.

"One of the most horrific realizations when your government is hijacked from the inside is that there is no official to whom you can turn. Living for legacy, living for security, living for money -- it makes no difference, they are not living for you."

That one January morning we woke up to snow-covered trees here in Durango.

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

Snow in town has been almost non-existent this winter, so walking along the river through the snow Saturday morning was a treat.

In the early 1930s the SA was roughing people up, creating chaos in neighborhoods, seeking to terrorize with the occasional killing. By the late 1930s it had been supplanted by the SS, which was much better trained.

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

Thankfully, this morning's beautiful sunrise colors reminded me that there are still things I am grateful for in spite of the seemingly unending stream of unnecessary darkness and hatred that tugs at our consciousness daily.
