To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.
Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids
Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

Just so everyone is clear, the main issue in the Supreme Court voting rights case tomorrow is whether it's racist against white people to enforce the Voting Rights Act.

I'm dead serious. We live in incredibly stupid times.

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.

COLLINS: The Dept of Energy just canceled $1b for a hydrogen hub that covers Montana. Is that taking away good-paying jobs?

SHEEHY: Of course it is. We want govt to be open

C: But the Energy Secretary says he would've pulled that funding even if govt was open

S: ... Well, that's unfortunate

Arizona AG Kris Mayes warned Speaker Mike Johnson she’ll pursue legal action if he keeps blocking Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva’s swearing-in, calling it unconstitutional. Continued stalling could trigger federal court intervention, forcing him to seat her and face legal scrutiny.
Arizona attorney general threatens legal action against Mike Johnson for failing to seat Adelita Grijalva
The Democrat accused Johnson of playing “political games” by delaying the swearing-in ceremony.

Young Republicans joke about rape and gas chambers, use slurs, and talk about how much they love Hitler.

This isn't an exaggeration. These are the current and future leaders of the Republican Party, all who have 10x the funding of Dem youth orgs.

In Speaker Johnson’s district, people would see their health care premiums skyrocket $2,284 per month if Republicans refuse to protect health care.

Republicans are making their own constituents poorer and sicker.

Confirmed, the "Gaza peace deal" was the same deal offered to Netanyahu and the US repeatdly, but it was turned down by Israel because they wanted to gift Trump (Israeli asset) a perceived victory at the expense of the Israeli hostages and Gaza population.

The shutdown isn’t collateral damage — it’s the strategy.
Halt funds, blame opponents, centralize control. It’s calculated.

Trump says he’ll cut “semi-communist programs.”
He didn’t name them — because the list includes things most Americans rely on.

It is true that authoritarians manufacture crisis so they can consolidate power.

The gov shutdown isn’t chaos — it’s choreography. Agencies gutted, public trust eroded, then rebuilt under more control.
