This is from a twitter post from 2018 by Rep. Rick Larsen, is what I found when I searched this image.

Apparently it was a parade in DC.

If we can't get our wish and he *does* get his ego-stroking parade, I hope it is even emptier of onlookers than what we see here.

MAJOR Victory in Montana!

Bill that would criminalize parents with felony child endangerment DIES in Montana after 15 Republicans cross party lines.

The bill would have criminalized even parents of trans kids driving through the state.

It died after nonbinary rep Howell delivered a strong speech.

If you live in Wisconsin or know someone that does, please make sure they know how important it is for them to vote for Susan Crawford. It's critical that we don't allow Donald Trump or Elon Musk to install anymore corrupt justices at the state level. This is very important! 🙏

This might be a radical concept but I don’t think anyone should feel like they need to justify why they like or don’t like a piece of media, literature, etc.

Enjoy what you enjoy, ignore what you don’t. Be free.
