Reporters who use “they say” in an interview like this have essentially adopted the politicized framing of the issue — rather than citing (and showing) what the law actually says.
BASH: You all found ways to pay the military and WIC. But why are you drawing the line now on 40 million Americans who literally will not be able to eat with govt assistance?
MIKE JOHNSON: If we had a contingency fund we could use, that would be done.
BASH: They say that's not what the law shows

At 4p ET/1p PT, I’ll have a one of a kind interview with Joaquin Oliver. He died in the Parkland school shooting. But his parents have created an AI version of their son for a powerful message on gun violence. Plus TX Rep. @jamestalarico.bsky.social - see you soon on Substack and later on YouTube.

Also please take care of yourselves. This is hard, necessary work!

The Shelley House in St. Louis was at the center of Shelley v. Kraemer, the landmark Supreme Court ruling that struck down enforcement of racially restrictive housing covenants.
Path of the tornado in St. Louis followed the lines of race and power the ruling challenged at its core.

The house next door had its roof blown off, but the Shelley House still stands on Labadie in St. Louis after the May 16 tornado.
The national landmark is central to a pivotal civil rights case that challenged racial housing discrimination and reshaped U.S. housing law.

Glad this story keeps traveling.
A front-page in Texas Metro News. A TV sit-down with KSDK. On air with St. Louis Public Radio. Grateful this piece on pretrial monitoring is sparking real conversations—in & beyond Missouri.

Proponents say the devices have helped address inequities in the criminal justice system. But many defendants have experienced unintended consequences.
