Kindness and politeness aren’t overrated, they’re simply not used enough.
A little kindness each day can create a ripple effect, brightening lives in ways we may never fully see.

This is Adelita Grijalva.
She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.
She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.
