The President of the United States just called for my arrest and execution.

In these moments, fear is contagious, but so is courage:

THE SITUATION ROOM
Q: "Why are White House officials…meeting with Rep. Boebert in an effort to try to get her to not sign this petition calling for the release of the [Epstein] files?"

Leavitt: "I'm not going to detail conversations that took place in the situation room."

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.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

*1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.”

Our federal tax dollars are being used to fund a network of government social media accounts that pump out disinformation 24/7. Even during a government shutdown. It’s definitely not essential work.

Qatar gave Trump a $400M jet. Trump gave them a military facility on US soil.

The UAE bought $2B of Trump's stablecoin. Trump gave them access to rare AI chips.

Saudi Arabia invested $2B in Kushner's firm. Trump sold them $142B in arms.

If this isn't corruption, what is?

Hey, if the federal government can illegally withhold funds from blue states, maybe blue states should stop funding the federal government, let’s see how fast it goes broke then.

Remember when TX Democrats left the state to prevent a quorum and they were fined, tracked down and eventually forced to go back to work? Why isn't the GOP being held to the same standard?
From every corner of the country, Dems showed up for work—traveling long days to do our jobs, to reopen the government, to save healthcare, to support our communities, and to save our democracy. Because, that is what we do. But, where are our GOP colleagues? Nowhere to be found.
Rep. Stansbury: Dems showed up to work. Republicans did not.

So I got this lovely letter from the VA yesterday. Since when is the VA partisan?

So unless you pledge complete loyalty to the Orange Menace, expect to get punished. Got it.
Leavitt: "Democrats should know that they put the White House and the president in this position. And if they don't want further harm on their constituents back home, then they need to reopen the government. It's very simple."

COLLINS: So you're telling me you're willing to vote no every time?
