Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106.

12 days of work in 106 days.

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.

Also noteworthy that unlike the ICE agents cosplaying as operators, actual National Guard soldiers are not wearing masks.

Remarkable.

MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful."

Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd.

Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

Booker: He was made to kneel before the authority of the executive… They treated a member of the United States senate violently after he identified himself, dragged him out of a room, threw him upon the ground, and put him in handcuffs

TWO AMAZING AMERICANS speaking about a vital time in our history due to the most UNAMERICAN unpresidential felon.

That's my summation.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social and @petebuttigieg.bsky.social are way more diplomatic than I am. haha

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.

There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.

They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

The cruelty of this administration’s policies ripples through entire communities. Our focus must be on connection and compassion — not division. What the administration is doing is not making us safer, it is eroding our shared values of decency and honor.

If the National Guard show up, big IF, their role is to protect ICE and DHS, not to engage with protestors. When Bush called in the NG in the 1992 L.A. riots, they largely stood by on the outside perimeters. Protest peacefully. Don’t give Trump what he wants

Listening to Pete Buttigieg on Flagrant, and it occurred to me that he gets it while Gavin Newsom sadly doesn’t.

You don’t make a podcast then force your Democratic audiences to listen to Steve Bannon and Charlie Kirk.

You go on manosphere podcasts to have their audiences listen to your ideas.
