Eric is a Missouri congressman.

He is quite literally dependent on the federal government for his paycheck, his housing, and his free healthcare. He’s a tax recipient.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

Gaines: I want to challenge AOC to a debate.
MAGA went from “I’m voting for Trump because grocery prices are too high and he said he’ll fix it” to “it’s patriotic to be entertained watching people starve to death” in about 9 months.

Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families?

Now you know.
If I wanted to build an addition on my house but I knew I’d be denied a permit, so I just ripped off the exterior walls then came to the zoning board and said they had to approve construction because my house is destroyed
They might let me, but I’m still an asshole. #thepeopleshouse #epsteinballroom

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor.

Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.

These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism.

This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.

Every American should reject it.

I love watching the same MAGAts who say, “Well we don’t have a king so I don’t know what you’re protesting” turn around and defend Trump selling off the White House to the wealthiest individuals and corporations seeking lucrative breaks so he can build a tacky gold plated ballroom.
THAT’S A KING! 🚫👑

If only someone in the right position to do so would hold him accountable.

From this bunch of incompetents? I don’t believe it. Did they totally make up all those code words with mixed sports metaphors?
Yeah, Rush Limbaugh once tried to claim there was an actual gang of lesbians who called themselves the “Pink Pistol Packin’ Posse”. I didn’t buy that story either.

I’ve been saying for a long time that Democrats should be holding press conferences in front of the White House daily. Now they should be holding press conferences daily in front of the destruction of the East Wing.

I’m learning a new Halloween song every day of October. This was definitely one of my favorites to work on with @japulver.bsky.social

In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government.

She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her.

So I confronted him.
Power outage last night gave us a perfect opportunity to sing a ghost story song we learned in elementary school by fire and candlelight. 🔥🪵🕯️👻
