Pubic wigs used to be a thing

Because syphilis and other diseases made your pubes fall out

Antibiotics killed an entire industry

And if that doesn't work, Democratic Congresspeople need to stay away from high windows and secret meetings with GOP agents - the magic number for the vote is 218

If Johnson HAS to seat the new member, then he needs to lose another Democrat to block Epstein vote

Wait'll y'all realize they're not re-opening government either until they have full control over this

They will do everything they can to provoke violence this week (No Kings Day, Oct 18) - enough chaos they can shut down Congressional rules and have enough control to block any Epstein voting

Importantly, you can't pick up the turtles to move them - it messes them up and they will drown - they HAVE to walk this themselves.

Dear Americans:
You elected Republicans & Trump, and when they started their shit YOU just sat like a lump, shrugged "oh, that's not ME", and said nothing as they threatened our country

And that, dear sirs, was the end

YOU did this to yourselves with your cowardice and complicity

There is absolutely zero chance that a man who took $50,000 in cash in a paper bag from an FBI agent on camera would have been appointed to any position by any other president.

Chris Murphy: "Republicans are boycotting negotiations to reopen the govt bc they're desperate to raise premiums on people by 75% in order to finance their tax cut for the wealthy. The other reason House isn't in town? They're about to have enough votes to mandate the release of the Epstein files."
