Farmers grow what they grow because of farm policy.

We don’t need all the soy and corn that we grow, but those are the commodities that receive subsidies and markets.

If we want something better, if we want to heal the Earth and grow food, now is the time to do it.

Typical Johnson response.

So, Speaker Johnson, first you admit the president’s unhinged, then shrug you don’t control him. Your job is literally checks & balances.

Then you claim you missed his meltdown in front of generals. Perfect example of burying your head in the sand. That’s why we’re in this mess.

Dean: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals.

Johnson: I didn’t see it.

Q: We've seen images out of Chicago of federal agents shooting faith leaders with pepper balls and arresting journalists. Where's the limit for you on what's acceptable conduct by federal agents?

MIKE JOHNSON: I've not seen them cross the line yet.

Airports including Buffalo, Charlotte, Cleveland, LA, Phoenix, Seattle, and Portland are refusing to air Kristi Noem’s shutdown video at TSA checkpoints, citing policies that ban political messaging. Good. Stop giving oxygen to this ridiculous government-funded propaganda.

Trump sending the National Guard to blue cities to "stop crime," after refusing to send them to the Capitol to stop the insurrectionists' crimes on J6, is peak Republican hypocrisy.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.
