Sure. I bet they're rushing to do town halls to clarify how they're screwing everyone over on healthcare, and oh yeah, the Epstein files!

Hey the house of reps has had all of Oct and most of September off because Speaker Johnson is desperate to not release the Epstein files.

Have they been filling the time with town halls? I mean they have a full month off… maybe a couple town halls each right?

So that chump, trump is demanding 230 million dollars from the DOJ for investigating his crime spree, which he was convicted on 34 counts of?
And his destruction of the "People's House" is costing 210 million? I smell bullshit, truckloads of bullshit...

"This video was vile and violent and only proves the point of the 'No Kings' march even more. What decent democratic leader would ever post a video of themselves sh**ing on peaceful protesters? He is a one-man hate march."

So, the RepugniCONs won't release the Epstein files, but will go after Bill Clinton, claiming he had a closer relationship with him than #Cheetolini did?
Sure, Hillary turned Bill loose to party on the island?
Give me a break.

ENDORSED! The Philadelphia Inquirer editorial board knows that my candidacy is the best choice to move New Jersey forward, citing my “welcome willingness to take on big challenges” and “actionable plans” on housing, transportation, energy, and education.

I am completely awestruck by the ease with which Mike Johnson lies on a daily basis. I'll never understand how such a transparently fraudulent "man of faith" can live with themselves. Life is too short to be that phony.

Why aren't we hearing about other blue states responding in kind?
CA can't be the only one to redraw maps or the repukes will accomplish their goal.

I miss my parents (both served in WWII & Korean wars). I’m grateful they aren’t here to see the rape of The People’s House 😥

Political Science class, 2125.

Prof.: Didn’t the Constitution provide for the possibility that corruption could threaten democracy?

Stud.: Yes, but no one foresaw an entire political party going rogue.

Prof.: And?

Stud.: Well, nearly half the population was dumber than dirt.

Frogs in slowly heating water is a popular allegory for being unaware that you are being destroyed in an incrementally worsening situation.

But I'm drawing hope from the past week that we frogs may be a bit more aware of our situation than those allegorical frogs. #Hop
