I’ve been waiting for them to start talking about trying to stop the planned 10/18 protests.

Americans - if you are inclined to and able to, get out to a protest on 10/18. Peacefully exercise your Constitutional rights, to speak, to assemble, to seek redress of grievances, to live as free people.

Marjorie Taylor Greene just said the Republican Party is “getting destroyed” during this government shutdown as they refuse to protect health care.

“Everyone’s just getting destroyed... Republicans, you have no solutions... It is hurting so many people.”

Some people are still doing their jobs.

Judges appointed by Trump keep ruling against him. He’s not happy about it.

From the National Guard to deportations, Trump has suffered numerous legal setbacks from people he put on the bench.

If this is true, it is outrageous. It means that Lindsey Halligan misled a grand jury to induce it to indict and still damn near failed to do so-and did fail on one count.

Ex-FBI Director James Comey is set to be arraigned Wednesday, but prosecutors investigating him determined that a central witness would prove "problematic," sources say.
