Welker: They say the house is not in session because you don't want to swear in the newly elected democratic congresswoman who would be a critical vote to releasing the Epstein files.

Johnson: It's totally absurd. This has nothing to do with that. It's another red herring.

Former FCC Chair Wheeler: An autocrat's favorite tool is a monopoly on telling the story. And if you can control the people who tell that story, then you've got an autocrat's greatest dream.

Breaking: Kristi Noem denied bathroom access. ICE and Homeland Security proved what we all know — they’re props. When a town says “no,” the big bad enforcers fold. Empty threats, empty power, empty stalls. #RestroomDenied

NEW: Illinois Gov. Pritzker announced President Trump intends to federalize 300 state National Guard troops “in the coming hours" over objections from state and city leaders.

We resolutely condemn this potential escalation. It's a power grab meant to intimidate and torment Chicago's communities.

STEWART: “Comedy doesn’t change the world, but it’s a bellwether— we’re the banana peel in the coal mine… authoritarians are the threat to comedy, music, art, thought… progress.”

We need an assault weapons ban in Minnesota. 60% of Americans support it, and Minnesotans want to get it done.

Call your State Senator. Call your State Representative. It’s up to us to come together and make it clear that this has to be the top priority. We CAN do this.

What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power.

This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations — from television networks to newspapers — are capitulating to these threats.

Stephen Colbert: “Tonight we’re all Jimmy Kimmel…. With an autocrat, you can’t give an inch. If ABC thinks that this is going to satisfy the regime, they are woefully naive, and clearly they've never read The Children's Book If You Give a Mouse A Kimmel.”

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.
moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot.

one of the agents picked up and threw congressional candidate kat abughazaleh to the ground.

THREAD: THE TEXTS: I’m not ready to comment on the veracity of the alleged texts sent from the shooter to his roommate, but if the FBI fabricated them because they have marching orders to pin this on the LGBTQ community or "antifa", then the shooter is going to walk free. 1/

Obama: We have to recognize that on both sides there are people who are extremists 

But I will say that those extreme views were not in my White House. I wasn’t embracing them. I wasn’t empowering them. I wasn’t putting the weight of the government behind extremist views.
