Mueller, She Wrote @muellershewrote.com · 10h

The reason Mike Johnson is able to keep the House closed and not pass bills to pay the military or fund the government is because Trump is going to circumvent congress and illegally steal that money from other government programs. All to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

Does Qatar have a copy of the Epstein files? It would explain a lot.

Federal employees across the government are now receiving layoff notices, a devastating outcome of Trump’s political games. It’s outrageous that he would use people’s livelihoods as pawns to “score political points”.

Reminder: The guy demanding credit for a ceasefire in Gaza is the same guy instigating a civil war here at home.

What he not saying is that his friends and cronies invested a fortune in Argentina since their guy Milei won, they stand to lose a big chunk of those fortunes the way things are going, and Argentina’s elections are in two weeks and we are tampering in them to bail Milei out.

Trump: I will put America first.

MAGA: Yay!

Trump: many of you will lose your jobs, savings and healthcare. Don’t worry. It’s part of America first.

MAGA: uhm, ok?

Trump: anything that personally benefits me, makes me richer, is also part of America first.

MAGA: this is getting weird.

Only a government run by billionaires would berate its employees for not wanting to work without pay.

MADELEINE DEAN: The president is unhinged. He's unwell

JOHNSON: A lot of folks on your side are too

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

J: I didn't see it

D: It's so dangerous! Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing. You have a POTUS who's unwell.

He knows it. They know it. They've always known it. Amongst themselves, they joke about it. They tell stories about it. They swap advice on how to deal with it.

But most importantly, to everyone else, they lie about it.

The last 3 shutdowns were all under Trump/GOP control. The GOP can’t govern, and America knows it.

Donald Trump is once again making it up

The Constitution says Congress controls shutdowns, not him

Congress has explicitly said no layoffs during a shutdown

He’s ignoring the law & we @democracydefendersfund.org are ready to stop him in court
