Can we get some focus on the perfidy of Speaker Mike Johnson?

So much of Trump’s excesses are made possible because Johnson has disabled the House as a check on the President. He has handed Trump his gavel symbolically and in reality.

We need to focus on Trump’s enablers.
Grijalva: I was looking at the example of now-Representative Walkinshaw from Virginia, who was elected two weeks ago Tuesday. The following Wednesday—less than 24 hours later—he was sworn in, with unofficial results.

So for me, apparently the rules have now changed in just two weeks.

The great sleeping giant of America always remains asleep until some venality becomes so noxious, some action so disrespectful of the common good, some brutality so noisy, that he has no choice but to awaken.

I believe that sleeping giant is awake – and turning the tide on Trump.

We’ve GOT to call Sinclair tomorrow to protest their Kimmel blackout. They won’t air him otherwise.

Call 410-568-1500.
That is Sinclair corporate headquarters.

You can call the ABC affiliate station too but they’re just going to redirect you to Corporate.

If we spoke as freely as Charlie Kirk espoused, we’d be on a watchlist, lose our job or maybe sent to the next iteration of Alligator Alley.

Take Matt Dowd on MSM as a recent example.

The FBI right now could probably use all those experienced senior career professionals with decades of investigative experience that they fired for absolutely no reason.

Only consistent, engaged and non-violent dissent by citizens will determine our future. Please watch this to see how history informed present day presidential accountability... As Lady Liberty muses, "It's not over."

Keeping showing up, speaking up and acting as you are able.

A1 above the fold in the @nytimes.com. The message is getting through. Keep pushing everyone. We can save the #CDC, save the #NIH from the clutches of #RussellVought #StephenMiller and #DonaldTrump. Keep the pressure up on your members of Congress and the media (letters to editors, op-eds).

Lisa Murkowski cuts a last minute deal solely to benefit Alaska, exempting it from some of the more odious parts of the bill to secure her vote and sell out the rest of the US. Yeah this stuff sucks and hurts a lot of people, but I got Alaskans exempted so the hell with you.
