I believe that all fellow humans are entitled to certain simple dignities, if for no other reason than to recognize that being alive is a struggle.
These are:
- I will look you in the eye
- I will call you by your name
- I will shake your hand
After that, it's up to you.

Two Guardsmen lie in critical condition tonight—and a political movement is turning their trauma into a tool to attack half the country.👇

You might not have caught what just happened on the Senate floor, but the Senate just “deemed as passed” the Epstein resolution.
That means as soon as it arrives from the House, it automatically passes the Senate (with no amendments) and heads to the President’s desk.
Wow.

Remember when Jack Smith’s case re classified documents at maralago got dismissed because Jack was “improperly appointed”?
Today in the firehose of news I learned that the DOJ used the same procedure to appoint Lindsey Halligan to prosecute Comey and James. They’re trying to say it’s fine now.

Let's be clear. The shutdown won't end until a deal is made with House & Senate leaders. The House needs to be in session for that. If the House in session, Johnson will have to swear in Grijalva. Which will approve the release of the Epstein files.
So we are shut down because of the Epstein files.

The White House plans to give asylum to far-right anti-immigrant protesters from Europe. No. This is not a joke. It does put one in mind planned terrorism, however.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.
The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.
At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

REPORTER: Do you support repealing Obamacare and what's your healthcare plan?
MIKE JOHNSON: We worked on repealing and replacing Obamacare back in 2017. I still have PTSD from the experience. We know that American healthcare needs dramatic reform. We have lots of ideas.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.
