Nice to see Sen. Gallego and Kelly going to bat for Adelita Grijalva, as they and everyone else should be.
Speaker Johnson is stalling her swearing-in because her vote would help finally reveal the Epstein files.

Trump has been illegally bombing boats off the coast of Venezuela.

Tim Kaine and Adam Schiff forced a vote on reasserting Congress's role over war powers and ending this reckless
warmongering.

It failed 48-51.

Murkowski and Paul voted yes.

Fetterman voted no.

Mueller, She Wrote @muellershewrote.com · 6h

One of the reasons the Jack Smith investigations seemed to take forever is because Biden's DoJ *did* have their hands around the evidence before they indicted. And they'd have convicted, too, if it weren't for those pesky SCOTUS fellas. 1/

Hey, you guys? Is it a good sign or a bad sign if the prosecution is just getting its hands around the evidence *after* it criminally charged the former FBI director?

Anna Bower @annabower.bsky.social · 14h

At one point during the hearing, the judge asked the prosecution why the case can’t be tried before mid-December.

Lemons replied: We are “just getting our hands around” discovery in the case.

There’s lots of it, he added, and it includes a “significant” amount of classified information.

Texas AG Ken Paxton hired a former staffer to work on a recent case. As a state employee, her labor would have cost taxpayers $641.

As a private attorney, Paxton allowed her to bill $3,780 an hour, so that day of work cost taxpayers $24,570.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton Is Outsourcing More of His Office’s Work to Costly Private Lawyers

Despite having an office of hundreds of attorneys, Ken Paxton is frequently opting for private lawyers — many to whom he has personal or political ties — to argue on behalf of Texas. One attorney cost...

Mike: DO SOMETHING. Fight them now @michael859.bsky.social · 2h

All true, but Trump is definitely not in charge. He is a gross mouthpiece for the owners of the Heritage Foundation and the director of the OMB, Russell Vought. They write the EOs. They tell Trump what they want him to know about what is in the EOs. The oligarchs are running the show.

When they put grandpa out to pasture, Vance will become their new mouthpiece. They are getting the puppet out more. They have him speaking more in the Golden Brothel Office meetings. He is getting camera time.

Another riot in Minneapolis was instigated by a right-wing agitator who was convicted of shooting into a police station and setting it on fire, in the hopes of starting a civil war.

A self-described "boogaloo boi," he drove up from Texas to create a false flag.
