MIKE JOHNSON, THE "LIMPEST DICK" IN DC, CALLED NO-KINGS DAY A "HATE AMERICA RALLY." HOLY MIKE CAN FUCK STRAIGHT OFF WITH THAT NONSENSE. HOW ABOUT DOING YOUR JOB FOR ONCE AND RELEASING THE EPSTEIN FILES? THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO POSSIBLY MY GREATEST POST EVER. LINK: IS HERE: bit.ly/48WrAIv

free clue for Mike Johnson: this is not a ‘hate America’ rally. we don’t hate America, you asshole. if we did, we’d be cheering Donny Convict’s fascist fuckery — because that shit is tearing America apart, and destroying it faster than our adversaries could have ever hoped.

Rep. Jim Himes on Trump blowing up boats in the Caribbean: "The White House has not shared what they believe their legal justification is. They did put out a memo. I will tell you based on what I know now and the reading of that memo, these are illegal killings."

Conspiracy theorists talk about the media running psy ops but my one and only psy op in this life is convincing my law school friends to be public access advocates in case they ever get appointed to the bench

The American people know who’s responsible for the shutdown. Republicans control the government. Trump can fix this, but he would rather protect the Epstein files.

He is setting it up to indict Adam Schiff next. Oh, and by the way, Watergate was real, and the Attorney General went to jail. I watched the hearings every day then.

BRENNAN: CBS confirmed the Trump administration rescinded the layoffs of CDC scientists. Some were involved with the federal measles response. How does a mistake like this happen?

VANCE: The govt shutdown inevitably leads to some chaos. It happened because of Schumer

B: But this was a WH decision

We fired people we had no reason or budgetary need to fire and we actually screwed up and fired the wrong people and then rehired them the next day and all because of Chuck Schumer

Billionaire corporations are already seeing the money roll in from the giant tax giveaways Donald Trump and the Republicans stuffed into their Big, Beautiful Bill.

What about working Americans? They're losing their health care, and their costs just keep going up.

It's shameful.

CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow embodied what a journalist should be: someone who holds power to account instead of capitulating to it.

Over 70 years later, his segment denouncing Joe McCarthy’s congressional witch hunts rings truer than ever.
