Previously, the most corrupt organizations on the planet were the IOC and FIFA. I believe the GOP is right up there now in the top 3.

"Republicans blocked paying the troops during the shutdown but found $20 billion to bail out Argentina's bad crypto investments" should be the sort of thing that leads every local newscast, but...

A few minutes ago in the House:

- Speaker Mike Johnson officially cancels votes next week, extending the House recess through a fourth week

- House Republicans block Democrats from passing a bill to pay the troops during the shutdown, ensuring they will miss paychecks next week

House Press Gallery: During today's pro forma session, the Clerk read a message from the Speaker designating Tuesday, October 14 through Sunday, October 19 as a district work period.

Punchbowl's Briana Reilly: House gaveled in and out of its pro forma just now w/o recognizing Rep Elfreth, who was seeking to UC a mil pay bill from Rep Sykes.

Elfreth told reporters after that House Dems stand “ready and willing to take” up standalone legislation to pay troops.

Don’t get too many nights like this: #Giants and Rangers #NYR win while the Eagles, Flyers and of course, Phillies all lose!

#Yanks are out but at least the Phils or Red Sox aren’t going to win either.

With Brian Snitker stepping down, I would like to see the #Braves go with David Ross as new skipper. Catchers always seem to make decent managers.

Boone managing like it’s a July game in Minnesota.

You can’t manage a playoff game like it’s a random July game in Minnesota. #Yankees. Boone out!

#Giants just cannot have nice things. Malik Nabers ACL injury. Sucks

Being a #Rutgers fan is definitely some kind of test.

Colorado school shooter's social media accounts "include references to Holocaust denial, and the name of one of the accounts appeared to end with a reference to a prominent white supremacist slogan" www.denverpost.com/2025/09/11/e...

‘Radicalized’ Evergreen High School shooter appeared to hold antisemitic, violent views in online accounts

Armed with a revolver, the 16-year-old shooter systematically reloaded and fired as he wandered the school, trying to find new targets, police say.

How about this gem:

Kirk also used antisemitic stereotypes as part of his broadcasts. In one show, he said, “Jewish dollars” had funded “Cultural Marxist ideas.” In another, he invoked the longstanding antisemitic trope of Jewish control of colleges, Hollywood, and nonprofit groups.

Funny how a Minnesota state senator, her husband and their dog, were murdered by a right wing radical and cheetolini did not order flags to be half staff. But he did for someone who said gun deaths are acceptable in defense of the second amendment.

#RIP to two icons of sport: Ken Dryden, Hall of Fame goalie for Montreal and former major league player and manager, Davey Johnson, who held the record for most homers by a second baseman for almost 50 years and managed the 1986 Mets to the World Series win. #RIP

In the coming days, we expect to see what's playing out in LA and DC happen in Chicago.

These efforts are not about fighting crime or making communities safer.

This is about Donald Trump testing his power and producing political drama to cover up his own corruption.

Governor Pritzker speaks behind the podium.
