Throughout US history, political parties have periodically changed names to more accurately reflect changes in political policies. Perhaps it's time to rebrand again. 1/2

This is a good quote to spur outrage, but it's not in the context suggested. She was answering a question about whether Trump had any other WH renovations in mind, to which she responded that his priority is the ballroom. Clearly, Trump doesn't care about SNAP, but that's not the reference here.

Your answer to any Republican action should be "No!" until Grijalva is sworn in so that she can do her job representing Arizonans.

It takes a lot of time to continue suppressing the #EpsteinFiles and covering up Trumps grifting.

They might want to reconsider the destruction of education. 🤔

SNAP benefits are about to lapse for 42 million people, because nothing says “save the children” like starving them.

Release the Epstein files.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 80th day out of the last 92.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

I hope you're right. #ReleaseEpsteinFiles

Adelita Grijalva won her election to Congress 29 days ago with 70% of the vote yet Mike Johnson refuses to swear in. This is a continuation of the GOP's rejection of democracy.

Well said. At the moment, the best Americans can hope for is temporary relief from the lower courts that at least slow his worse impulses.

It flies under the radar because it is overwhelmed by the sheer repulsiveness of the physical destruction of the east wing, but there is no way that a president should be allowed to use private money to change public property. It circumvents the power of the purse.

If Johnson would do his job and swear in #AdelitaGrijalva, she could quickly eliminate at least one issue - the Epstein files - consuming his time.

Who is the "they" that have been after this monstrosity "for years"?

If you mean Volvo, it's not an American company. Wonder if ACECO is meeting federal contractor standards. It's not like Trump is known for complying with regulations.

Sadly, since Trump started his second term, the WH is no longer the American symbol it was and can not likely be returned to its former historical state.

He's building a mausoleum to himself, but clearly doesn't remember the destruction of everything Sadam Hussein after his downfall.

Praising God while telling nothing but lies demonstrates a decided lack of faith. A true believer would fear being struck down by lightning even indoors.

It's where he plans to lie in state to hide the lack of mourners because everyone else will be dancing in the streets.

The clock is running out for Johnson. If he doesn't swear in #AdelitaGrijalva very soon, he's going to have to explain his government shutdown under oath to @azagmayes.bsky.social

Republicans are literally hiding from everyone, including their constituents and anyone else trying to hold them accountable - not a good display of leadership or very alpha.

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.
