JD Vance can dismiss the Young Republicans as a college group chat.

But let's be clear: the group chat includes a State Senator, a Trump Admin official, and multiple Republican staffers — and some of the worst comments came from folks associated with Mike Johnson, Elise Stefanik, and Mike Lawler.

"I'll be making cuts that only effects the Democrats" - Trump

Do you now get it? He only serves half the country. Not a real US president. Just a MAGA cult leader.

That #TheRuleOfLaw be followed and that those that forced themselves into the Government be punished jailed. And that the #SCOTUS once again be FOR the people, NOT the president.

WHEN we take congress back in 2026, what are the first things you want to see happen?

When we take the Presidency back in 2028, what are the first things you think should happen?

What do you think the 3 branches of govt can accomplish once we take them back?

What do YOU want?

Generally, a new member of the House of Representatives is sworn in by the Speaker of the House during a ceremony on the House floor. However, other individuals, including a federal judge, can administer the oath in specific circumstances.

This is that circumstance.

Unlikely. Portland is one of the most bike friendly cities. and they do a nude bike ride yearly. They simply organized an emergency ride to protest ICE.

AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, I’ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.

Netanyahu announces Israel will not abide by the terms of facilitating humanitarian aid, despite it being a key ceasefire agreement clause.

Didn't take long, did it?

Elections aren’t every 4 years or every 2 years, they’re every year. In California we have a special election for prop 50 and it’s a YES. If Texas can gerrymander then we should be able to. I know my comments will be filled with bots, but I won’t be intimidated. Our democracy is vanishing❤️
