The woman behind an early Facebook post spreading a harmful and baseless claim about Haitian immigrants eating local pets that helped thrust Springfield, Ohio into the national spotlight says she had no firsthand knowledge of any such incident and is now filled with regret and fear as a result of the ensuing fallout.
“It just exploded into something I didn’t mean to happen.”

On January 6, Trump summoned a violent mob and dispatched them to the US Capitol.
Trump never offered DC 10,000 troops, and the President — not the DC Mayor — controls the DC National Guard.
Unlike Trump, we immediately offered the DC Metropolitan Police Department to support the US Capitol Police. We owe the DC Police and the US Capitol Police our never ending gratitude for saving our Capitol and democracy.

I wanted to share that I was elected to the Town Council of Mountain Village, Colorado. This is a new chapter for me and I’m eager to make progress on the issues I campaigned on: affordable housing, healthcare, and recreation. (Our schools are great!)

The mayor proposes to cut an occupation-focused reading program with incredible success getting DC adults into jobs. And cut "learners ride free" like her kids ride free.
How does this help public safety & closing equity gap?
Coincidence these 2 programs I championed, I'm sure
I’m heartbroken to learn of @ShanitaBurney‘s passing. She was such a fine and genuine person, with only love and positivity for everyone. She gave so much to our community and to @dcpublicschools. I will miss her so very much.

Upton says he'd assure equal number of Ds and Rs on committees: "That's the only way we're going to get anything done."
Upton admires his MI predecessor in Congress, Gerald Ford. An Upton speakership would be like the Ford presidency: a public service in a time of division.

Fred Upton says his serving as Speaker is "an intriguing suggestion," and he'd be willing to do "to put an end to the dysfunction that is doing damage to the country." Upton says, "I would need Democrats. I could get a significant number of Republicans."

Are you not aware that you only went ahead because Otero reported and is close to 100% counted? Pueblo (93%), Garfield (90%) and Pitkin (80%) are the only counties under 95% counted; all lean Frisch (+8, +14, +58). If I had to bet, I'd bet on Frisch to win this right now.
