When asked if he would bring the House back to reopen the government, Speaker Johnson quipped, “We’ve already done our job.”

Mr. Speaker, you have not done your job.

Totally agree. There is a protest the 18 and I believe this one will be a success as a matter of people showing up. But then, after that, we must find a way to unseat him. Period. Federal tax resistance is an idea, but we must find more. We must. We can't wait anymore.

So I’m running out of likes and reposts and replies! We are all stuck in a loop here and it’s needed so that we are connected. But I think it’s time we move the dialogue to how we bring around an effective change to our current crisis.

I am sick and tired of 91-year-old Chuck Grassley allowing these rude and despicable Cabinet members to scream and yell, losing their shit as they attack sitting Senators. There used to be something called decorum in the Senate and Congressional chambers. Now it is something like Jerry Springer.

Trump's Four Freedoms:

Freedom from shame. Freedom from accountability. Freedom from responsibility. Freedom from empathy.

This whole stupid, destructive mess is about being freed from the obligations of reasonable, kind, responsible adulthood.

Hey, just remembered at 5pm I was overdue for COVID and flu vaxes, went to the CVS site, found the nearest store, got an appointment online for 6pm and biked over. Insurance covered both. Easy as those pies I made from the apple trees in Carroll Park last month. October is a good month for vaxing.

Hakeem Jeffries obliterated Lying Mike Lawler: “You’re ripping away people’s health care. People will die in your district.”

Then Creepy Mike Johnson tried to crash a press conference and got exposed for the Epstein cover-up.

Every Democrat should be fighting like this. No excuses. 💥

Donald Trump is a convicted felon, yet he still had no qualms about running for president. So... just imagine the magnitude, depravity, and wickedness of the crimes that he's hiding.

Release the Epstein files.

Gavin Newsom: “What more evidence of authoritarianism do you need? These guys aren’t screwing around. We can no longer screw around. It’s all at stake. People need to wake up. We can’t continue to play by the old set of rules.“

The GOP outrage over Bad Bunny performing at the Super Bowl because he has an accent and speaks Spanish reminded me that today would be a good day to release the Epstein files.

Bondi's notes had nothing to do with her work as leader of the DoJ, or even the embattled border czar. Rather, Bondi had collected screenshots of social media posts, prewritten comebacks, and handwritten notes she hoped could give her a good “gotcha” moment.
