KARL: I mean, you could swear in Adelita Grijalva tomorrow, right?

MIKE JOHNSON: No, not tomorrow. We couldn't. We wouldn't.
My heart goes out to all of you at this tender time. May the depth of love bring comfort to your families and church family.

BREAKING: Live munitions from a Trump-Vance “military demo” flew over I-5 and struck a CHP vehicle. The White House wanted the highway open—but Gov. Newsom shut it down for safety. That decision likely prevented injuries or worse.

Mike Johnson sputtering that it's no big deal that he hasn't sworn in Grivalja yet, it's such a small stupid thing, why are you people still asking about it, I can do it anytime, but no, I'm not going to do it now, or later, or anytime soon, there's no big deal here, shut up, stop asking about it

Q: "Trump authorized military strikes...in the Caribbean. 20 people have been killed in six different strikes. Do you believe these strikes are legal?"

Sen. Rand Paul:" "No...These people have been blown up without us knowing their name or any evidence of a crime."

Mike Johnson: "We're fighting for healthcare as well. Not just in word but in deed. We put in the one big beautiful bill, real reforms to Medicaid to make it work better."

(The bill in fact cuts nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid.)

The Trump WH spent all weekend ripping Gavin Newsom for being concerned that this stunt by Hegseth and Vance could endanger people driving on one of the busiest highways in America. These idiots are going to get people killed.

Rand Paul: "When you kill someone, if you're not in a declared war, you really need to know someone's name at least. You have to accuse them of something. You have to present evidence. So all of these people have been blown up without any evidence of a crime."
