It's a lot of work to vet new followers. Let me help:
If you EXPECT a follow back, don't follow me.
If you have 12 followers but follow 4.5 thousand, don't follow me.
If you have no posts and follow thousands, don't follow me.
I'm not here for a follower count. I'm not here to be data scraped. TY

I don't care how Schumer himself votes. The bottom line is that as Senate Majority Leader, Lyndon Johnson would have last night had on his desk eight sealed mason jars with the severed hands of every senator who even thought about raising them to vote yes. As a majority leader should.

Johnson is on the list.
Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.
12 days of work in over 3 months.
With full pay and benefits.
The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.
It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Anyone in Boston an immigration lawyer or know one who can help this woman? Her husband is detained at Logan over a dismissed misdemeanor from 2017. He’s a legal resident of the US. She just asked for help an hour ago.
