Mike Johnson on SNAP benefits ending Saturday: "The White House has all the pain dials turned back to just a 0 or a 1 as best they can, but when you're out or resources they go all the way up. And it's out of their hands, it's out of our hands."

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) warns that the $230M payout won't be public: “Our reading is that, even though this is a private settlement, it doesn’t have to be disclosed anywhere until there is an accounting of where all the money has gone at the end of the year."

Trump’s Vile New $230 Million Shakedown of DOJ Just Got Even Worse
It’s bad enough that Trump wants—and DOJ will likely fork over—this tribute payment. Now, get this: It can probably be done at first without even being revealed publicly.

To be crystal clear: trump is talking about taxpayers paying him millions of dollars as some sort of restitution because he was investigated for sending a mob to the US capitol on Jan 6th to overthrow the 2020 election. That might just be he most f*cked up thing he’s done since Jan 6th…
Trump: "It's awfully strange to make a decision where I'm paying myself. But I was damaged very greatly and any money I would get I would give to charity."

Don’t expect any apologies or consequences.
