Public Challenge to a Pregnant Congresswoman — Bar Confrontation

Before: Existing in the public domain (runway photos circulated); a potential security concern discussed verbally but not physically produced at the table.

After: Still publicly circulating; the mention heightens vigilance but nothing is physically altered in the scene.
