May GOP plans be thwarted. May their allies become disillusioned and flee their side. May their financiers become bankrupt. May their voters be awakened from slumber to realize the irreparable harm their votes have caused and vote differently in ‘26. May the traitors be removed from office.

Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal. That visual is powerful b/c you're watching destruction of the rule of law as those walls come down"

Adelita Grijalva won her election to Congress 28 days ago with 70% of the vote yet Mike Johnson refuses to swear in. This is a continuation of the GOP's Jan 6 attack and their rejection of democracy.

May Johnson’s plans be thwarted. May his allies break from his side. May his SuperPAC’s, PAC’s, and campaign finances turn into the ‘red.’ May his sins be shouted from rooftops as he awaits his Golden Calf Jesus to return. May his voters recognize the irreparable harm he perpetrates and vote Blue!

In-the-closet Mikey won't swear in Adelita Grijalva and claims her time would be better spent "serving her constituents" which she can't do until she's sworn in.

Nauseating. Isn’t it? Want a different administration? Try voting in 2026! It’s a civic duty. It’s only a Republic if we can keep it.

He did everything he possibly could to overturn the election & stay in power - threatening his VP, Govs & Secs of States, organizing a mob to storm the Capitol. He knew if he ordered a military coup they would’ve refused & he would’ve been tried for treason. That’s why he left.

Arizona announces they are suing Mike Johnson for refusing to swear in Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva.

She is the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.
