Marjorie Taylor Greene on The View (!!!): "The worst thing that I just can't get over is we're not working right now. And I put that criticism directly on the Speaker of the House. We should be at work."

Rep. Jim McGovern: "The truth is these people don't give a shit about everyday people... They take food away from poor folks on Friday and then they go to Church on Sunday and proclaim to be good Christians."

Maybe putting Sean from The Real World in charge of air traffic was a mistake.

These clowns are fucking unreal.

world central kitchen providing free meals for federal employees impacted by the shutdown -- and their families.

every weekday at canal park in navy yard. 200 m street southeast. 11am - 2pm. mad, mad respect.

Laura Loomer is now officially part of the Pentagon press corps.

We live in Idiocracy.

Absolutely right. As we noted in FAULT LINES, Watergate is key to understanding Cheney’s politics

One Battle After Another for me.

Dick Cheney did more than anyone else to build up expansive and destructive executive branch powers in the wake of 9/11; he lived to see another president turn those same powers against his own daughter.

He should be a warning sign to the GOP today but too many of them are in the cult.

Anytime a politician dies, my first thought is wondering how embarrassing Trump’s tweet about it is going to be.

Jeffries: "The Trump administration and Mike Johnson are running a pedophile protection program. That's the reason they refuse to swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva."

Pelosi: November 1, when people would start losing their snap benefits and what did the president do? He had a great gatsby party at mar-a-lago.

Brett Kavanaugh's behavior during today's second oral arguments has been incredibly obnoxious and rude. He is so eager to kill a service member's lawsuit against a negligent government contractor that he keeps interrupting other justices, raising his voice, and getting emotional. Weird and erratic.

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.

The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.

They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.

Wanna fix fraud and abuse?

Fix that.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

it's utterly wild how the Heritage Foundation president talks about other people

if you found a guy talking like this outside, you'd probably call the cops

Three of the 12 most pivotal plays in baseball history by cWPA occurred last night

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.

You are not a patriot if you have contempt for people who use SNAP benefits to eat while simultaneously not caring about a $300 million dollar ballroom, you are exactly what they molded you to be, a pawn in their game to divide us and enrich themselves. Congratulation, you lose.

Paxlovid from Pfizer costs $15 to make and now retails for $1500.
