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.

20 & 44. Dead within days of each other. “related to Covid complications” & “long-term illness” (possibly Long Covid & reinfection from the same deadly strand)

Nothing to see here. Move along. Just another day “living with the plague.”

NBC just gutted the very teams that gave marginalized voices a seat at the table—then called it “restructuring.”

The cuts:

📌NBC BLK (Black community coverage)

📌NBC Latino (Latino community coverage)

📌NBC Asian America (Asian American community coverage)

📌NBC Out (LGBTQ+ community coverage)

Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.

Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

OK, so our "Secretary of War" currently has two big priorities: (1) murdering innocent fishermen in the Caribbean, and (2) endangering the lives of commuters in Southern California.

Perhaps, we are seeing one of the downsides to having a drunk TV talk show chatterbox running our military.

The Pentagon’s gone dark and Johnson’s calling it “transparency”

KARL: “The guy’s only had two briefings since he became Secretary of Defense… they’ve basically forced the Pentagon press out of the building…”

SPEAKER JOHNSON: “I can’t remember… a Secretary of Defense who has been so transparent.”
