Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93.
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.

AOC: I don't care if someone likes me or not. That will never change the fact that I'm going to fight for them to have health care. I want MAGA to have health care. I want MAGA to be paid a living wage.

It's a pretty big deal that the NYC Bar Association--one of the most prominent and respected bar associations in the country--is accusing the President of ordering the "unlawful summary execution," i.e. murder--of civilians in violation of US and international law. www.nycbar.org/press-releas...

Earlier this year, we filed a FOIA lawsuit to find out more about ICE's plans to expand mass detention.

This commentary offers a clear, powerful statement of why freedom of speech is at the heart of democracy and must be defended, whether the speaker is Charlie Kirk or Jimmy Kimmel, MAGA supporters or MAGA opponents.

Charlie Kirk, Redeemed: A Political Class Finds Its Lost Cause
By ignoring the rhetoric and actions of the Turning Point USA founder, pundits and politicians are sanitizing his legacy.

If you ever had any doubt that rightwing media is just official state propaganda at this point, consider that Charlie Kirk was replaced on his show by the sitting Republican vice president who ‘interviewed’ White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller.

Let me put it this way: Mahmoud Khalil is a Palestinian immigrant with a green card who worked with deeply unpopular groups. My median follower is a white guy with a 401(k) who was born in this country. We all need to be a little braver than we have been; we can afford it.
Mahmoud Khalil is free right now because they don't actually have the juice to crack down on all dissent.
Maybe I’m naive, but this government hasn’t even meaningfully gone after the genuinely unpopular groups they could call domestic terrorists—PSL, In Our Lifetime—I’m not terribly confident they’re going to be successful going after National Organization for Women or whatever

Look, they do not have the capacity or competence to do this at the scale they want you to fear they do, and your fear is precisely their greatest force multiplier. Everybody who is cowed into silence by their threats allows them a smaller pool to focus on.

This is false. For example, the libertarian @cato.org breaks down the numbers, showing about 6 deaths from right-wing politically motivated attackers for every 1 from left-wing attackers.
Moreover, the claim that shooters represent anyone other than an unhinged fraction of society is the deeper lie.

When Dems clutch pearls over institutional process and demand a vote to authorize war in Iran, they’re surrendering the larger point — often on purpose.
Americans overwhelmingly oppose war in Iran. The only smart move is @aoc.bsky.social’s rejection of war and call for consequences against Trump.
