I am in a Jane Austen phase, again, so regrettably, I will be a lady of leisure, tending to my still room, and saying witty things about annoying relatives

NEW: Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) offered amendment to block Trump’s newly-established $1.776 billion taxpayer-funded pot of money from "making any payments to convicted child predators" Multiple pardoned Jan 6 rioters have been accused of child abuse Amendment was blocked
