Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.

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.

Extremely strong verbiage I've never seen the National Hurricane center use for Hurricane Melissa.. Hoping for the best, but it doesn't look good at all

Fentanyl and coke are the new “weapons of mass destruction” lie. It’s Iraq all over again, folks. It’s always about controlling the oil.

No, man, Republicans are in charge of the government.

Do you think Democrats are the ones who keep telling the House to stay on vacation week after week in order to prevent the release of the Epstein Files?

Because I'm pretty positive that's *you* who's been doing that.
Mike Johnson: "Democrats are required to open the government. They keep saying, 'Republicans are in charge of government.' We aren't!"

COLLINS: Today you pardoned the founded of Binance. Can you explain why you did that?

TRUMP: Which one was that?

COLLINS: The founder of Binance

TRUMP: I believe we're talking about the same person, because I do pardon a lot of people. I don't know. He was recommended by a lot of people.

A pattern is developing where everyone who fights back against a Trump attack inevitably wins with their reputation much better than before, and everyone who caves to him looks like shit and has Trump coming back for more a month later.

Just finished a solo RPG, Thousand Year Vampire, and it’s my first I’ve ever tried.

My character was a vampire in Trondheim, who moved to York and then New Orleans and NYC.

I learned so many things, like the Harrying of the North, Staple City laws, early NYC music halls, and more.

Good game :)

Today - the baby as a balloon theory - probably reached a new level, but as my rule notes, there are more levels to go.
Whatever you’re imagining, it’s going to be 4x dumber that that.

Perfectly illustrates the way Dems have to bear responsibility for anything even vaguely associated with them (GWAR?!), while Republicans can brush off the actions of their party's actual elected officials.

Certiorari "before judgment" is how #SCOTUS takes up a full appeal *before* the intermediate federal courts have heard it.

It used to be exceedingly rare. For instance, there wasn't a *single* grant of such expedited review b/w August 2004 & February 2019.

This is the *23rd* such grant since then.
#BREAKING: Over dissents from Justices Sotomayor, Kagan & Jackson, #SCOTUS grants a stay in the Slaughter case (allowing President Trump to remove the last Dem member of the FTC), *and* grants certiorari "before judgment" to decide whether to formally overrule its 1935 ruling in Humphrey's Executor.

Man alive. I have studied Right Wing authoritarianism for years and have watched some truly fucked up shit and today’s memorial service is maybe the most concentrated example of how messed up and disturbing that sector truly is.
