I stand with Obama and Gavin Newsom. How about you?

So many similarities to GOP candidate Nixon dispatching Kissinger to sabotage LBJ's Vietnam talks, initiating a horrendous Cambodian bombing campaign after winning the 1968 election - only to sign essentially the same deal in 1973 that LBJ had put together 5 years earlier.

🚨BREAKING: Arizona’s 7th District is certified — Adelita Grijalva is now U.S. Rep. Mike Johnson’s last excuse is gone. No more lies. No more delays. Swear her in NOW so she can do her job. They can delay, lie, and hide—but the Epstein files aren’t going anywhere. The cover-up is cracking.

There's a little library that straddles the US-Canadian border:
the "Haskell Free Library and Opera House".

Since 1904, it's been free to use for people in Stanstead, Quebec & Derby Line, Vermont, with just a black tape line to indicate the international border.

It’s been 21 days since Adelita Grijalva won her election, yet Mike Johnson still hasn’t sworn her in.

Why? Because she said she would be the 218th signature on the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

Her constituents deserve a voice in Congress. Swear her in NOW.

I run a pay-whatever-you-can law practice. I'm proud of that. However, please do not say you will "pay" me by helping me find Jesus. I do not want to be Christian, and honestly it's a little bit weird. I'd rather do your case pro bono.

So, China is buying soy beans from Argentina instead of America but we are giving Argentina billions of dollars? Also, Argentinians have free healthcare but Americans do not and our government is now shut down because it doesn’t have enough money to give Americans even a discount on healthcare?
