Let me explain why they’ve all gone into a fetal position on opening the government. Republicans have been lying to Americans. Now they’re in a bind because the lies are catching up to them. 1. Veterans aren’t getting paid & the shutdown has nothing to do with immigrants. Epstein files a problem.

Unfortunately for us all he knows that there are photos and videos of him raping those pre-pubescent girls. And he’s scared to death of them getting released. And the entire GOP knows it and are covering up for him.Johnson is scared 💩 less, of calling in members & he’ll have 218 votes release files

Needing multiple streams of income to stay afloat is a societal failure not a personal one. You should be able to afford a comfortable lifestyle with one job. You are not lazy.

Republicans & supporters of republicans are exposing themselves to be liars and hypocrites & pedophile protectors. Johnson refuses to call back to work members of Congress, to pass a vote to pay veterans, why? Coz that’ll force him to swear in the AZ elected rep, why? She’ll release Epstein files.

If seeing the video of a pastor being shot in the head with a pepperball and pepper-sprayed in the face up close doesn't change this debate just a little, I don't know what will...Of course it's not on Fox or NewsMax...

The governors of Illinois and California, as well as a number of members of Congress, are jumping up and down, warning that our democracy is in peril.

As terrifying as that prospect is, it is heartening to see some opposition leaders get loud.

I want to see Congress flipped and even if we don't get the necessary votes in the Senate to convict... I want to see daily impeachments. Because damn, there are daily impeachable acts.

Jesse Watters insisted that Donald J. Trump is not experiencing any cognitive decline or dementia. I've attached an excerpt from a recent speech where he discussed basements, water pumps and ceilings. Cognitive decline? 🤷‍♀️

You know who takes a cognitive test? People whose family members suspect their loved one is suffering from dementia. If he kept getting “perfect” scores…they wouldn’t keep administering them. My take? He blew the first one he ever took. Now, they’re tracking the decline. I’d bet my hot coffee on it.

Morons Against Good Americans is quickly losing ground. People begin seeing through Fox News & Republicans lies as they see and feel for themselves the rising costs of everything. The problem with lies is once they get exposed, people start discovering & fighting for more truths. Boycott Fox. Vote 🔵

Some cases take on outsized importance, with issues that transcend the decision the parties ask the courts to make. This is one of those cases. The stakes are high: the integrity of the Justice Department and the ability of a president to corrupt the rule of law. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
