If I were a DC reporter, I’d consider maybe pressing Johnson on how he reconciles these two statements.

@atrupar.com

Mike Johnson: "We're so angry about it. I mean, l'm a very patient guy, but l've had it with these people. The theory we have right now -- they have a hate America rally that's scheduled for October 18 on the National Mall. It's the pro-Hamas wing and antifa people ..."

@atrupar.com

Mike Johnson: "People have got to stop framing simple policy disagreements in terms of existential threats to our democracy. You can't call the other side fascists and enemies of the state and not understand that there are some deranged people in our society who will take that as cues to act."

On the 18th we need to be vigilant for increased violence and provocation by both law enforcement and counter-protestors, both of which will be used to try to justify more violence and authoritarianism.

Every time someone opens their mouth to hype AI, just google “name of person/company invests in AI” and you’ll *always* find something. Every time.

Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus?

TRUMP: Suspending who?

Q: Habeas corpus

TRUMP: I don't know. I'd rather leave that to Kristi.

I teach in my undergrad class on the history of the US jury system that the institution's roots are in colonial juries serving as a counterweight to abuses of imperial power. The American jury has problems for sure but still can serve that roll. Don't blow off jury service.

Dems need to understand this.

Not a single criticism Republicans level at them is ever made in good faith.

Therefore it’s impossible to compromise, placate them, or gain their respect.

They hate you for existing & they’ll call you communist extremists regardless of how hard you reach out to them.

Once again, I’m wondering why Democrats aren’t running with a straightforward message of “despotism is un-American and unaffordable” right now and all the way into the midterms.

Been getting the itch to run an over the top pulp sword and sorcery style game. Give the players clockwork horses and they have to battle mercenaries mounted on cybernetic sabertooth tigers. 80s music Playlist included

Bari Weiss is set to be named the editor in chief of CBS News, the New York Post reports

Paramount Skydance is poised to name Bari Weiss as editor in chief of CBS News in the coming days — giving the hard-charging journalist unusual clout to revamp the struggling network as it also acquires her scrappy news site the Free Press, The Post has learned.

Weiss — a 41-year-old former New York Times opinion writer who has built the Free Press into a buzzworthy site with a contrarian bent — is expected to be named to the top post in a Monday announcement, although the talks are in flux and the timing could change, a source close to the situation said.

This should be the whole point. It is an outright lie to vote for appropriations or legislation, of any kind, in a situation where the acts of Congress aren't really binding. It makes any possible "deal" worthless. The whole exercise is a sham. Dem votes would do nothing but legitimize the pretense.

T. Greg "Antifa General Counsel (Retired)" Doucette @gregdoucette.bsky.social · 9d

Also: it makes zero sense to do a "deal" on any spending when Trump has already proven he will impound appropriated money at any time for any reason and SCOTUS has said repeatedly that him doing so is fine

Eric Michael Garcia @ericmgarcia.bsky.social · 9d

In another era, a group of Republican Senators like Tillis, Cassidy, Collins and Murkowski would join with a handful of Democrats to iron out a deal to extend ACA subsidies and end the shutdown. But in a Trumpified GOP, there is little incentive to do that.
