"Halligan is finding out that prosecuting a case is harder than it looks — particularly when that case has already been rejected by seasoned prosecutors as unwinnable. Add in that it will be tried on the fastest federal docket in the US, and you’ve got the makings of a total humiliation in court."

seems kind of weird that mike johnson is holding press conferences while not doing any actual House Of Representatives voting. like when i would call in "sick" to the Olive Garden i would just stay home, not go to the restaurant and be like "damn y'all short-staffed as fuck"

Next time Mike Johnson et al get up there to call Democrats Marxists and Socialists, I’d love to be there to ask them what they think that means and be immediately disavowed by the outlet that sent me.

Today, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that the US govt. would set “price floors” across a range of industries.

The reporter doing the interview didn’t follow up on that comment, so we don’t know anything more about what he meant.
Bessent Says U.S. Government Will ‘Set Price Floors’ Across Industries
The treasury secretary made the eyebrow-raising comment during a conversation about trade and industrial policy with CNBC.

Mamdani: "I just want to speak directly to the president. I will not be a mayor like Mayor Adams who will call you to stay out of jail. I won't be a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election. I can do those things on my own."

There's always been a fight over the true story of America. I believe deeply in the story that says we’re all created equal, and that if we can treat each other with decency and respect, all of us will be better off.

The narrative & language of the Speaker and other GOPers is illogical. They are calling the "No Kings Protests" by the name of "Hate America Protests." IF they would use their critical thinking abilities, they would remember that we fought to rid ourselves of a king, therefore "No Kings" is pro USA.

The Roberts Court has been built with a majority of justices appointed by presidents who have lost the popular vote, affirmed by a Senate itself built on minority rule and with two members (Kavanaugh and Justice Amy Coney Barrett) confirmed under dubious circumstances. www.salon.com/2025/10/15/j...
