Welcome back to hashtag sisters-in-law with Joyce Fants, Barb McQuaid, and me, Kimberly Atkins Store.

Jill Weinbanks will be back soon and we miss her, but we can't wait for her to come back.

And don't forget the new resistance minitoat is ready to order.

It's on the website, politicon.com slash merch to get yours now.

I use mine this morning to grab some fruit while I was out and I passed the local

market. It's great. It's stylish. Everybody wants one. Get yours now before they sell out.

Now, let's get on with the show where there is plenty to discuss this week, including Trump's

deployment of troops in L.A. and the threat to send

them to other U.S. cities. Also lawmakers being treated like lawbreakers in the most anti-democratic way

and the latest on Kilmar-Abrego Garcia's fate. But before we get to all of that very heavy news and a very heavy news week,

I just wanted to ask a little advice. You know, I know you all have experienced having a kid

fly the coop, you know, go off and leave the nest. And my younger stepkid is getting ready to go off and start his

first grown-up job and move on. So it's, I'm happy and sad, but like, I feel like as a stepmom,

I should give some, like, wise advice to starting off your professional life.

But I'm, I don't know what to say.

What did you guys tell your kids when they started leaving the nest?

Well, I remember when my first went off, I thought there's so much I failed to tell you.

And so I created this document.

Things I should have taught you.

You know, like how to cook an egg and, you know, all this stuff.

It was really long.

And like I worked on it for months.
