Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 95th day out of the last 107.

12 days of work in 107 days.

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.

This is the president of the United States taking a break from gold-and-marble interior renovations to say he’ll defy a court order to feed hungry Americans.

If nothing else, the last nine months should have made it clear that elections matter. But what’s remarkable about America is that we have the power, as citizens, to change this country by voting. Go to IWillVote.com.

Patel's girlfriend performed at Penn State last weekend. A government jet arrived at State College Regional Airport, according to its FAA registration, with an address listing the FBI HQ. The plane then flew to Nashville, where his girlfriend lives.

All on the taxpayer’s dime.

He is so obviously mad and unfit it's just incredible there isn't a national conversation about his need to step down.
Q: What did you mean when you said you're prepared to send 'more than the National Guard' into American cities?

TRUMP: if I want to enact a certain act, I'd be allowed to do whatever I want. The courts wouldn't get involved. Nobody would. I could send Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines -anybody I want

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

We can't wait until 2028, there will be no American democracy left. We need to move to remove these criminals long before then. If Ds don't take back the House & hopefully the Senate in 2026 this place is toast. Americans will have allowed our 250 yr experiment in self governance to perish.

I wish Pete Buttigieg would go on Fox News regularly to tell their viewers, in the Pete Buddigieg way of explaining things, what Trump has done to their health insurance premiums, cuts to Medicaid and why they are paying higher prices for everything.

Don’t let RW media control the messaging.
