The top half of the page is a speckled light brown background. A black box contains the website name in white letters, and a description of the site in lowercase pink letters. Below the black box is a video. The bottom half of the page is a white background. There are three scroll-over pink boxes, each of which contains an arrow to take the user to a different section of the website.

Below these scroll-over boxes are links to three blog posts, each of which has a picture accompanying it. The link on the left contains the image of a gold justice scale in the foreground with books in the background. The link in the middle contains the image of a tweet from Senator Lindsey Graham where he is quote-tweeting Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Her original tweet reads, “Asking to be considered a refugee & applying for status isn’t a crime. It wasn’t for Jewish families fleeing Germany. It wasn’t for targeted families fleeing Rwanda. It wasn’t for communities fleeing war-torn Syria. And it isn’t for those fleeing violence in Central America.” Graham’s tweet reads, “I recommend she take a tour of the Holocaust Museum in DC. Might help her better understand the differences between the Holocaust and the caravan in Tijuana.” The link on the right contains a picture of a brown table, where tea is being poured from a golden kettle into a teacup.
