In her first post at 16:39 UTC, Jayapal promoted a video involving wildlife off the coast of Washington state: “The most amazing account and MUST WATCH video of a seal escaping orca hunt by jumping onto photographer’s boat! https://t.co/rRN2hn5lSS via @seattletimes”.

Later that day at 17:12 UTC, she welcomed a new sports team to the city: “I am so excited to have the Torrent, Seattle’s new women’s hockey team, in our city! We can’t wait to cheer you on! https://t.co/2sAs86Fcq9”.

Addressing immigration policy at 19:05 UTC, Jayapal referenced recent actions by U.S. Catholic Bishops: “‘We oppose the indiscriminate mass deportation of people.
