Good morning and happy Monday to everyone. The best part about No Kings was the comforting proof that millions of us absolutely will not kiss his ass.

It's been two weeks since Adelita Grijalva was elected and Mike Johnson has still refused to seat her, unlike in past cases where he swore in new members within 24 hours.
There cannot be one set of rules for Rs and another for Ds.
Also, release the damn Epstein files already.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.
She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

a significant reason this is happening is because out of a combination of partisanship and cowardice Congress has essentially abdicated its constitutional role in the republic
Look. Invading our own country is about as straightforward a case as you can have for impeachment. The GOP abandoning the Constitution is kind of the only story there is and it gets no coverage.
Guys. I just had a crazy idea. What if the President DIDN’T deploy troops in American cities. Just a thought. Have we tried that before?

I'm a bit confused by Barrett's reasoning here. The will of an elected body (Congress) was that the president shouldn't be able to fire members of independent agencies without cause. Should that be a factor when considering irreparable harm?

Mike Johnson: "We said, 'don't sit on your couch and play video games'- by the way, also not a talking point. There was an AEI study, I think one of the organizations that polled this, and most of these young men who are not working are sitting around literally playing video games. Get back to work"

The interaction illustrates how federal law enforcement officers do use aggressive tactics against protesters who yell and needle officers but don’t appear to present clear physical threats.

Last year they claimed “illegals” were voting, without any evidence.
They used fear mongering to push for voter suppression laws.
Now they claim “illegals” are getting free healthcare, again without any evidence.
So they can make healthcare unaffordable for millions of Americans.
Enough.
