Poor mayor probably hadn’t seen one before so didn’t know what it was

Grijalva not being sworn in means she doesn’t have access to funds as a member of Congress, which means she can’t help her constituents. She has repeated this multiple times and Mike Johnson knows this but he’s going to keep lying about it anyway.

Good. Hound him until he pays with real money and serves time
George Santos—a shameless fraudster who lies about everything and steals from everyone—walked free Friday night when President Trump commuted his 7-year sentence after serving just 84 days. Sound familiar?

Under a new law, New York State can correct Trump's perversion of justice. trib.al/UlIZdIz
Kind of a visual metaphor for what Trump has been doing to our country
This (He) is beyond disgusting
HEY New York Times,

IT WAS SHIT HE DUMPED ON PROTESTERS!

If he can post it, the least you can do is write it!
In the immortal words of Maxwell Smart, missed it by “that” much
Can we turn him off now? Maybe deport him. His 15 minutes are over

I suggest she and her husband enroll in a clinical trial downing those pills immediately

One can never be too proactive
At a state-sponsored cancer forum, Casey DeSantis, the First Lady of Florida, touted ivermectin, an antiparasitic drug commonly used to deworm livestock, and indicated that Florida should explore its potential repurposing for cancer research.

Speaker Johnson is spewing the same lies to avoid swearing elected AZ Dem Adelita Grijalva.
Arizonans are in need of assistance only she can provide.
He's real desperate to keep the Epstein files from releasing, isn't he?
Prescient
Wisdom from Schoolhouse Rock.
The feds deliberately lied to Calif Governor, saying they would not be doing this

JaydeeV is nothing more than a schoolyard bully pulling pranks with taxpayer funds, exploiting the military
This is a profoundly absurd show of force that could put Californians directly in harm's way.

Flying live rounds over a busy highway without coordination between state, federal, and local partners isn't just wrong — it's dangerous.
This is a step too far

Arizona GOP Rep. John Gillette, responding to disinformation, demanded Rep. Pramila Jayapal be ‘tried, convicted & hanged’—a call left unpunished by his party, showing how violent rhetoric is reshaping U.S. politics.”

Educate yourself your sorry f#ck

What a crappy leader
How long can the Speaker keep playing dumb? trib.al/AXOs1eY

At a press conference, Johnson was asked about a recent ProPublica report that 170 U.S. citizens had been unlawfully detained by ICE, including 20 children. “I’m not—I don’t know what you’re talking about with the children,” he replied.
Truly. The guy is evasive beyond belief
Not being even vaguely sarcastic:

At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”
Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.
He’s intentionally misleading the people about the truth

Wonderful trait for a speaker of the house of REPRESENTATIVES of the people
Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that.

No phones, no staff, nothing.

I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!
Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)
Leavitt doesn’t inform, she simply amplifies the disrespect this administration has for the press and the people

She is immature and wholly unqualified for the position of press secretary
Great. Another good man, person of color, leaving the administration. But there’s no discrimination, no.
