Md. Dem. Senator ,Chris Van Hollen, put forth a Bill today to pay ALL federal workers and contractors during the Shutdown.
Wis. Repub Senator, Ron Johnson, objects saying, "it wouldn't be right to pass a Bill by unannomous consent".
😳
Because it hamstrings Trump from being able to layoff & fire ppl.

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.

Q: Has Speaker Johnson reached out to you since the January 6er made a threat on your life?

Today is Day 23 of the Republican shutdown. Your regular reminders:

1. Republicans control the White House, Senate and House.

2. GOP making deep cuts to Medicaid, Medicare and ACA.

3. Democrats are fighting to lower costs, cancel the cuts and save healthcare for Americans.

Rep. Ted Lieu @reptedlieu.bsky.social · 22h

We’re here in the Capitol today holding a hearing on the impacts of the Republican shutdown.

Democrats continue to fight for the American people. Republicans are on vacation.

Picture from Democratic hearing featuring Reps. Lieu, Aguilar, Clark, Jeffries, and McGovern.

They are complicit because they are afraid. Sticks and stones can break their bones but Trump would ruin their lives.

For a 90,000-square-foot room, you can build approximately 50 pickleball courts, depending on the buffer space provided between each court. This buffer space is crucial for safety and player comfort.
That's how big this god forsaken Ballroom is.

We should start a campaign of sending ping pong balls to each Republican MOC.
Include a message written on each ball. 😈 I thought maybe squashing them flat as that seemed appropriate.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social
Please, in your talking points about price increases in health insurance costs, you must emphasize that this is for Republicans too. You'd be surprised how many MAGAs think they will not be included in the price increases.
Just saying....

Trump has violated the National Historic Preservation Act .There is a. process, before any renovation is done, which involves consultation with various bodies, including the National Park Service (NPS), the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, and the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts.

So Trump destroying the White House East wing was done without Congressional input/vote and essentially illegal. Does that make the contractors working on the destruction/ project of Federal property potentially illegal? Congress can refuse to pay money that has not been previously approved, right?

Doesn't the House have a very simple solution to return to their work.
Someone needs to file a
NO CONFIDENCE vote against Spkr. Mike Johnson.

Next time someone tells you democrats are responsible for the shutdown, say the following in a calm, collected tone:

- Democrats are fighting for millions of Americans to not lose their healthcare

- Republicans are threatening to hurt more Americans if Democrats don’t cave

Enunciate the big words

You know we're in uncharted territory when a former acting director of the #CDC, a scientist who spent years at the agency, says Americans can no longer look to the current CDC, under the current HHS leadership, for accurate vaccine guidance. www.statnews.com/2025/10/18/r...

Former acting CDC director calls public health cuts ‘absolutely heartbreaking’

Public health leaders “have to figure out how to reach” those who are open to persuasion on vaccines and more, says former acting CDC director Richard Besser.

This is a hack job.
Renovations do not look like a bomb went off.
Wonder if this contractor knows he won't get paid.
