"This guy is a convicted felon. I mean think about that – who's threatening to jail me... This guy is unhinged. He's insecure. He's a wannabe dictator. And there's one thing I really want to say to Donald Trump. If you come for my people, you come through me. So come and get me."

NN: Dems say you won't swear in Grijalva bc you don't want her vote on Epstein

JOHNSON: No. It's scheduling

NN: But there have been Rs sworn in during pro forma sessions

MJ: Only reason was bc they flew in their family

NN: So if she flies in her family you'd do it?

MJ: Again, it's a distraction

I have another question for the #FourthEstate
@katiephang.bsky.social
@arimelber.bsky.social :

Words matter. Stop using "Obamacare" when referencing the "Affordable Care Act" #ACA.
The term, "JohnsonCare" is also incorrect when referring to #Medicare.

It's not the Dems job to open up the government little Mike. Don't you know how this works by now? This is on the G0P. You shut it down so it's up to you to open it back up.

Can you please ask your fellow members of the fourth estate to ask anyone that refers to ANTIFA to follow up and ask the speaker to define the acronym?🤔
These are the members of ANTIFA:

I wonder if Comey regrets his behavior that handed 45 the presidency on a golden platter?🤔

And the Oscar goes to…Stephen Miller! Earlier this afternoon he “faked a glitch” when he realized he said the words Plenary Authority aloud. I had to look up the definition and yikes! Now, we can all guess what their next steps will be.
Take a listen! 👇🏼

Republicans don’t serve the people. They serve billionaires. They erase protections, kill investigations, and rewrite the rules so their donors can live above the law.

The Cruelty Is the Point.

I always had this hunch that Republicans loved their BDSM, but I think the consensual role-playing part of this session has left the building.

Just saying...

Robert Reich @rbreich.bsky.social · 4d

Turning the military on citizens.

Attempting to rig elections.

Toying with the idea of declaring martial law.

Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out.

If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?
