Stop calling them immigrants, protestors, or activists. Refer to them as civilians. Take control of the language and defuse their narrative. #3E

Tom Homan reportedly accepted $50,000 stuffed into a takeout bag from undercover F.B.I. agents. We must continue to ask where the money went, @ruthmarcus.bsky.social writes.
Tom Homan and the Case of the Missing Fifty Thousand
Lawmakers and ordinary citizens have to keep asking about the bag of cash, or accept an executive branch without any accountability.

For three weeks the government has been shut down.

For three weeks, people’s health costs have spiked.

And the President and Republicans in Congress are having a picnic?

It’s no picnic for the American people.

Blocked them all in the first 30 minutes. It's the bsky way - block, don't engage. Screenshot only if you must, never reskeet.

Someone also put together a list of everyone who followed the white supremacist house's account as well. Many obvious bots in this list.

It is, as they say, fire.
The fellow is a catastrophe. But that is no reason why we should not find him interesting, as a character and as an event. Consider the circumstances. Here is a man possessed of a bottomless resentment and a festering desire for revenge; a man ten times a failure, extremely lazy, incapable of steady work; a man who has spent long periods in institutions; a disappointed bohemian artist; a total good-for-nothing. And here is a people obsessed with powerful though far less justifiable feelings of defeat and inferiority, and unable to think of anything save how to retrieve its lost "honor." And then he— who had learned nothing, and in his dreamy, obstinate arrogance never would learn anything; who had neither technical nor physical discipline, could not sit a horse, or drive a car, or fly a plane, or do aught that men do, even to begetting a child—he develops the one thing needful to establish a connection between him and the people: a gift of oratory. It is oratory unspeakably inferior in kind, but magnetic in its effect on the masses: a weapon of definitely histrionic, even hysterical power, which he thrusts into the nation's wound and turns round. He rouses the populace with images of his own insulted grandeur, deafens it with promises, makes out of the people's sufferings a vehicle for his own greatness, his ascent to fantastic heights, to unlimited power, to incredible compensations and over-compensations. He rises to such a

I just went to the House floor to demand that Speaker Johnson swear in Adelita Grijalva, but the GOP gaveled out without even recognizing us. 
 
We’re not going anywhere. I’m here with Leader Jeffries and Adelita Grijalva. Speaker Johnson must swear her in.

Raskin: "Speaker Johnson described the exercise of 1st Amendment rights across the country by 6 or 7 millions Americans as part of No Kings as a 'Hate America Rally.' The Hate America Rally happened on January 6 ... there were more than 140 police officers who were wounded."

Never forget they aren’t telling the truth when they say they care about stopping political violence.

Few acts in history have done more to incentivize political violence than the January 6th pardons. And virtually every mainstream Republican supported letting them all out.

Enough is enough. Adelita Grijalva was elected on September 23. The people of Arizona have a right to be represented in Congress.
 
During today’s pro forma session, when the House is called to order I will seek unanimous consent to insist upon the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva.

The first time the Confederate flag ever paraded through the US Capitol was on January 6, 2021.

The first time the White House was damaged in over 200 years since the US rebuilt in the 1820s after the British burned it in the war of 1812 was mid October, 2025.
