If we don't test for COVID, then there's no COVID! If there's no flights, then there's no late flights! Brilliant!

Attn Pennsylvania voters: Reports are coming in of signs near polling places reading “No Kings, No Retention” with a crown-slash logo. These signs are fake and misleading, part of a disinformation push. In Pennsylvania, you should vote YES to retain the Supreme Court justices on the ballot.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103.
12 days of work in 103 days.
With full pay and benefits.
The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

Always keep your cameras rolling. Federal officials are scheduled to appear in court today, where they’ll face questions over whether the government breached a prior order by deploying tear gas during immigration enforcement operations in the Chicago area.

HUGE: A federal judge in Chicago just ruled Kristi Noem's warrantless arrests of people unlikely to flee are ILLEGAL. 💪Worse for her, he ordered ICE to report EVERY Chicago arrest for the last 4 months – compiling a record for criminal charges. 🔥
