Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103.
12 days of work in 103 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.

Mockler: I think we need to spend more time talking about phase two and the actual peace deal, rather than some Nobel peace prize, when that hasn't been achieved yet.

A state appeals court threw out the judgement and eliminated the financial penalty in August of this year.
James’ indictment comes two weeks after a separate case against former FBI Director James Comey, both by the same Trump-appointed prosecutor, Lindsey Halligan.

James sued Trump, members of his family and the Trump Organization in a civil fraud case in 2022. Two years later, a judge found Trump liable for conspiring to manipulate his net worth and ordered him to pay $355 million, plus interest, in penalties.

What do you call a political system where those in power refuse to seat a duly elected member of the opposition party? Not a democracy that’s for certain.

I’m pretty sure if we designed an assisted living facility to look like the WH and put lots of gold all over it and a ballroom with his late 70s playlist on a loop we could coax him in there and he wouldn’t know the difference. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus?
TRUMP: Suspending who?
Q: Habeas corpus
TRUMP: I don't know. I'd rather leave that to Kristi.

So the people causing the shutdown are getting paid. The people keeping the country running don’t.
And Speaker Mike Johnson won’t let the House come back to work. So basically they’re on a paid vacation while Americans miss paychecks.
Did I get that right?

Priztker: if federal agents fired upon journalists and protesters, when unprovoked, what would we call it?
I don't think we'd have any trouble calling it what it is. Authoritarianism.
So let's not pretend it's something else when it happens in our American cities.
