It’s been 45 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona.
Mike Johnson is still refusing to swear her in because she’s the final vote for the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

Remember the time Obama personally caught a fainting woman during his speech — rather than just blankly staring like a sociopath?

I’m just saying, but if I had just gotten completely shellacked on Tuesday, I wouldn’t be asking SCOTUS to let me starve millions of people 3 days later.

We’re headed for the first shutdown since the last time Trump was in office.
The framing of trying to give Medicaid to illegals is absolute nonsense.
The average family of four is paying up to *$1500* a month on the insurance marketplace.
Dems wanted to help. GOP refused.

So I’m trying to make sense of this. Trump can give $20 billion to Argentina to help stabilize its economy. But he can’t compromise with Democrats to give 20 million Americans affordable healthcare and avoid a shutdown. So this is what you call America First. 🔄

The GOP just passed a bill most of them vehemently disagree with — and that they know is going to harm their constituents — because they’re afraid of Trump.

It’s amazing how fast they can build a concentration camp: “Alligator Alcatraz”— but they can’t manage to fix a levee, fund a hospital, or get clean water to poor communities.

The Pentagon is in "total chaos" and Pete Hegseth is unlikely to remain in his role, according to its former top spokesperson, who painted a scene of dysfunction, backstabbing and missteps at the highest levels of the department.

One thing Democratic leadership could do right now is to name an alternate HHS secretary--someone to provide ongoing public updates and health information. And do it for other departments too. Start showing voters what a Democratic government would look like--press conferences, speeches, all of it.

Quietly, Hegseth announces a major policy change, ruling out Ukraine joining NATO. This is a capitulation to Putin, justifying his wars of aggression starting with Georgia in 2008. This will embolden Putin & undermine the interests of peace in Ukraine & Europe. A major blow to US national security.
