Rep. Johnny Olszewski D-MD (lower left) tried but failed to get recognized on the House floor today to get Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva D-AZ sworn in. Speaker Johnson has refused to seat Grijalva for more than 3 weeks. "This is wrong and you know it Mr. Speaker."

President Trump signed the 2019 law guaranteeing back pay for federal workers during shutdowns. Now he’s trying to break it.
Federal workers shouldn’t pay the price for his political games or failed leadership.

We can’t find compromise if we are not speaking to each other. I continue to call on President Trump and GOP leaders to come to the table to negotiate a deal to re-open the government.
Week two of the Republican shutdown.
Democrats have a plan to restore healthcare funding & reopen the government, but House GOP won’t show up because Speaker Johnson canceled votes.
Maybe it's because when the House returns, we’ll have the votes to release the Epstein files. 🤷♂️

Trump’s mass firing plan would make a shutdown permanent, taking away livelihoods and harming critical services. I’m introducing the SAFE Act to safeguard federal employees during shutdowns and ensure back pay if they’re fired unlawfully.

Federal workers are people, not political pawns. I call on all of my colleagues in Congress to join me in preventing mass firings by the Trump administration during a potential government shutdown.
A shutdown should never mean mass layoffs. Yet Trump is threatening to mass fire federal workers, treating them like political pawns. That’s why I’m introducing the SAFE Act to block these attacks and protect workers during shutdowns.

We have seen a President gleefully ignore the law and instruct Republicans to gut a Congressional budget that had bipartisan support. Any budget that continues that as a "new normal" should be a non-starter.

The takedown of Jimmy Kimmel mirrors the type of censorship we see in authoritarian regimes and is part of the White House’s ongoing effort to silence its critics and political opponents.

ABC announced that it was taking “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” off the air “indefinitely.”
The timing of the announcement prompted many fellow comedians and Hollywood figures to accuse the Disney-owned network of caving to the Trump administration.

Caring about survivors of sexual abuse is not a hoax. It is not a distraction. It is the right thing to do and it’s about damn time this Congress finally tackles the Epstein issues once and for all.
Q: "You said the Epstein documents are a hoax...So what is the theory since these documents came from the Epstein estate?"
Leavitt: "I did not say the documents are a hoax. I said the entire narrative surrounding Jeffrey Epstein right now...is a hoax"

Release the files. No more delays. Release them now.
I just signed Rep. Thomas Massie’s discharge petition to force a vote to release the Epstein files.
Every single member of Congress should sign it. If there’s nothing to hide, there’s no reason to delay.
