The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.

Want to know why?

Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.

Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

Warnock: A budget is not just a fiscal document. A budget is a moral document. Show me your budget and I'll show you who you think matters and who doesn't. And if this awful budget were an EKG, it would suggest that our nation has a heart problem and is in need of moral surgery

This is what a decent human being does. We were very lucky to have him as our president who did so much for Americans. I still can’t believe what we have now.

They’re coming for the arts, kids: “The NEA is updating its grantmaking policy priorities to focus funding on projects that reflect the nation's rich artistic heritage and creativity as prioritized by the President. Consequently, we are terminating awards that fall outside these new priorities.”

RESULT: Conservatives have lost 2 critical school board seats they held in Fort Bend, Texas.

This board adopted one of TX's most restrictive book banning policies, on a 5-2 vote.

Voters ousted a conservative incumbent. And the right-wing candidate lost race to replace a retiring conservative.

Hours later, a conservative judge warned of his "strong suspicion" that the administration "just deported a U.S. citizen with no meaningful process."

The Trump administration is purging artifacts of the civil rights movement from the Smithsonian. Read the story below. It's appalling.
Opposition to American apartheid is apparently "improper ideology."
“Black Press USA has learned that Trump officials are sending back exhibit items to their rightful owners and dismantling them—starting with the 1960 Woolworth’s lunch counter sit-in exhibit.”

Raskin: He destroyed more than $10 trillion in American wealth in a single week. And then he went golfing and bragged to America about winning the tournament at his own golf course. That's like bragging about being endorsed by your own campaign manager. So much winning

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.
