Would be good news for everyone else
Massive defeat for Mike Johnson. Still has to clear the senate, but this is what Dems wanted all along. Johnson has essentially lost control of the gavel after Epstein and now this. Weakest speaker in history.

The bipartisan petition to force a vote on extending the Affordable Care Act tax credits now has enough signatures.

Mike Johnson must bring this to the House floor immediately. Congress should not leave for a holiday break until we vote to protect healthcare for 25 million Americans.

Urgent update.

Wild that three of the four presidential impeachments in American history directly involved Jeffrey Epstein associates.

I have been doing a lot of court watch recently and the presence of ICE is large and noticeable.

It's time for our legislature and courts to take steps to limit the ability of ICE to intimidate, harass, and impede due process.

I was devastated to hear about the loss of Rob Reiner and Michele Singer. Rob is a generational talent that used his voice to advocate for a better world. We live in a better country because of them. They will be missed.

“President Trump has made it clear…if the Indiana Senate fails to pass the map, all federal funding will be stripped from the state.

Roads will not be paved. Guard bases will close. Major projects will stop. These are the stakes and every NO vote will be to blame”

My lines in the sand for 2028:

1) Universal healthcare
2) Ending military support for Israel (barring a major change in Gaza)
3) Aggressive prosecution of the Trump Administration

I will not support a Democrat that does not do these things. I am fed up with failure.

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion.

Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed seven straight audits.

This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

Trump sent Vance there twice. He threatened to cut off all federal spending to the state. He vowed to back primary challengers of any Republican who voted against him here. He posted their names online, prompting his fans to send them death threats.

But all that failed, so now he wasn't involved.

“He is not unstoppable and you are not without power”

Remind yourself of this every day.

Especially on the bad days.
Buttigieg on Indiana: "The big part of how Trumpism works is to make you feel totally disempowered. To make him feel inevitable. And yet the clear takeaway from this is he is not unstoppable and you are not without power."
