Anyone notice that Speaker Johnson subtly dismissed Congress today so that they won't be in session on Friday?
Hmmm, anything big set to happen on Friday that might upset people?

It's always about the threats. It can't be a day too soon when this awful regime is finally in the rear-view mirror.
Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment.
They are openly saying this.
Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

It’s a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. It’s perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose “no” vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.
