On one hand, I feel betrayed by the 7 Senate Democrats (and one independent) who caved. On the other hand, I think the GOP would never give into Dem's insurance demands. They would have been happy to keep using the shutdown to make people suffer and blame someone else.

If Donald Trump's name was NOT all over the the Epstein files, The U.S. House of Representatives would have been meeting for the last several weeks instead of being in recess, and the government shutdown would have ended.

Remember, every time Senate Democrats vote no on a continuing resolution, Republicans vote no on an even better, Democrat CR that would end the government shutdown.

In Portland, Oregon, masked ICE GOONS abducted and vanished US citizen Gonzalo Catalan last week. Tragically, his family remains unaware of his whereabouts and has not received any communication from him as of today.

Sorry ass sons a bitches.
Watch this.
Open your eyes to this brutality.
ICE beats up, drags & abducts this disabled visually impaired man.
Now share this.
Everyone must see the brutality of this administration & ask themselves what they are doing to push back.
You have power.
Even sharing this video exerts that power.

Is Trump rooting for the team from California or the team from Canada in the World Series? He's probably rooting for both of them to lose.

I guess I will be rooting for the Blue Jays instead of the American team now. Oh well, I normally root for the underdog, and any team playing the Dodgers is an underdog.

Don't Mike Johnson et. al. realize that their refusal to release the Epstein files convinces people that the evidence they have about Trump being a pedophile must be damning?
Raskin details how he tried to get unanimous consent today to force Johnson to swear in Adelita Grijalva, but the Acting Speaker Haridopolos "scurried out of the room"

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that.
No phones, no staff, nothing.
I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!

Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)

Isn’t it against the law for Any Military Service to fire live ammunition/missiles in or over Civilian Populated Areas due to the fact that there is NO GUARANTEE that something might not go wrong and hundreds of people can be killed or injured?
Why not fire into the ocean?

The last thing I wanted to do today was to make a poster, take it to the courthouse, hang out with hundreds of people I don't know, and hold it so, passing motorists could see it, but duty called.
