I was raised fundamentalist and have yet to find scriptural support for White Christian Nationalism — or for hate, for that matter. I read. I write. I rant at https://susancampbell.substack.com, and for Hearst in Conn.

It's been over 9 months since the Palisades and Eaton Fires tore through Los Angeles. We asked for federal support, but we haven’t heard a word from the White House.

Not a single offer.

Is this what leadership looks like? Abandoning the American people when they call for help?

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.

Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

What are you hiding, Pam Bondi?

Susan Campbell @susancampbell.bsky.social · 4h

That’s my understanding, yes. In times past, I might have taken this inaction as an indication this was a big nothing. But this DOJ is crooked as a dog’s hind leg, so…

Johnson: Miss Grijalva has not yet had a scheduled date because she was elected after the house was out of session,

Gallego: You don't want her to be on the Epstein discharge.

Johnson: You guys are experts at red herrings.

Gallego: This is an excuse

Pritzker: "He said he was going after the worst of the worst. It's not going after the worst of the worst when you're just literally stopping children who happen to be brown & asking them for papers as if they're gonna have proof they're a citizen. Pull out your phones and film everything you see"

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.

Has any one seen Squeaker Johnson today? I don’t care about his health. I just wonder where the lil’ nymph is hiding.

The Secretary of Defense preaches “standards” yet every clip or photo I see of the National Guard in Portland or Chicago, they are not wearing headgear (patrol caps). Where are the standards and who is enforcing them? Need more pictures posted of them like this!

Bondi claiming they arrested [checks notes] "the girlfriend of one of the founders of antifa" has me in stitches

Bondi: "Bondi: "Just like we did with cartels, we are going to take the same approach, President Trump, with antifa -- destroy the entire organization from top to bottom. We are going to take them apart."

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."
