Sen. Roger Marshall: "October 18 is when the protest gets here. This will be a Soros paid-for protest for his professional protesters. The agitators show up. We'll have to get the National Guard out. Hopefully it will be peaceful. I doubt it."

I don't have the bandwidth to make this case explicit. But today, Todd Bessent put Frank Bisignano in charge of IRS, in addition to Social Security.

Bisignano, at Social Security, gave Big Balls access to all our Social Security data.

Now he's in charge of IRS.

It’s the Epstein files shutdown.
Photo of an X post by FactPost (@factpostnews ) stating: "Republicans are postponing the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva, the newest Democrat elected to Congress. Her day one promise was to be the tie-breaking vote to release the Epstein files." The post includes two images: on the left, a smiling Adelita Grijalva wearing a denim jacket and necklace, and on the right, a person with blonde hair being sworn in, with another individual adjusting their tie. The post features a profile picture and verification badge.

🚨🚨The House reading clerk just read a letter from House Speaker Mike Johnson where he declares a 'District Work Period' from October 7 to October 13.

That would mean no votes in the House until mid-month.

Doors kicked in and belongings stolen or destroyed.

This is the reality of Trump’s deportation agenda.
