📢🚨 Speaker Johnson: I'll swear in new House Dem Adelita Grijalva 'as soon as she wants.'

Now GOP's backtracking. Why?

Because she'd be 218th signature to force release of Epstein Files.

Arizona doesn't deserve a cover-up‼️

Senator Mark Kelly and I stopped
Adelita Grijalva's office. Locked.
Speaker Johnson still won't swear her in because she'd be the 218th signature to release the Epstein files.

Arizona deserves representation, not a cover-up.

You gotta give ‘em hop.

A tweet from the Anonymous account says, “Make sure the dude in the frog costume in Portland knows he's an icon.” The image is a stylized poster of a frog wearing a stars-and-stripes scarf with the word “HOP” below, in the style of the Obama “HOPE” poster.

A huge relief to see the Israeli hostages released and the joy on family faces. But the fact that Israel has banned Palestinians from celebrating the release of their relatives, posting on social media or giving interviews - most held without charge - tells us how much there is to go.

Enjoyed the New Yorker interview with Tim Curry, a free-wheeling conversation in which there were several sensitive questions about his paralyzing stroke. But oh my goodness, why was there no follow-up at all to this staggering answer? www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

Screenshot of text from the interview:

You’ve always been an incredibly physical performer: your strut during “Sweet Transvestite” in “Rocky Horror,” or the way you run around unfurling the mystery at the end of “Clue.” Do you still feel that in your body? Does that live somewhere in you still?

I think it does, but it’s angry. My mobility is angry to get out. But it’s not happened yet. I do a certain amount of physical therapy. I did a whole bunch of it at Cedars-Sinai, and I got very close, I think, to walking. That was tantalizing. For insurance reasons, I had to withdraw. And I have a visiting physical therapist now, but I can only really do exercises from my bed, which is pretty pathetic. It’s not going to get me walking, I don’t believe.

[I have underlined the sentence "For insurance reasons, I had to withdraw."]

Convicted Felon Donald Trump told Republicans NOT to negotiate with Democrats. Democrats said they'll meet anytime, anyplace, anywhere. The Convicted Felon does not care about you, me, or anyone who isn't a rich donor.

Former Watergate prosecutor & assistant US Attorney in the SDNY warns that DOJ lawyers could face consequences, including disbarment, for "vindictive prosecution", for pushing Trump's retaliation cases.

They should remember that "just following orders" isn't a defense.

We see you, @codepink.bsky.social

Your paid performative agitators pop up on her book tour like they think we don’t know the VP’s job.

The VP doesn’t set Middle East policy, the President does. The VP’s role is to support the President, period.

Sadly, she IS unprofessional. I worked for her as a volunteer walking precincts FOR MONTHS & I never saw a ruder candidate. She has a bad reputation for a reason. She's had outbursts on multiple occasions. I wanna like her...I wanna love her, but she's arrogant, petty & selfish.

Fox News is eating this up.

Have you ever seen anyone torch their own governor chances as fast as Katie Porter did last week?

Google searches for “Katie Porter interview” are up 10,000% and her odds of becoming the next California governor just cratered from 40% to under 16%.
