Mike Johnson’s abrupt closure of the House had more to do with stalling a congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation than previously reported, and it appears to have been a direct response to the Treasury’s surrender of Epstein’s financial records.
SCOOP: Johnson closed House hours after Congress received Epstein’s financial records
The decision to shut down the House — and by extension the government — came hours after the Oversight Committee received documents from the US Treasury.

I am 76 & I have had most of these vaccinations at one time or another. Also vaccinations against Covid, Tetanus, plus Cholera & Yellow Fever when travelling in foreign countries.
These prevented me catching horrible diseases & dying a gruesome death. They did not harm me, they protected me!

The US lost 33,000 jobs in June, after expecting to gain 100,000. Trump's brought America nothing but job insecurity, unpredictable tariffs, unstable markets and plummeting consumer confidence.

Sen. Thom Tillis: “It is inescapable that this bill, in its current form, will betray the very promise that Donald Trump made” not to slash Medicaid. “I’m telling the president that you have been misinformed. You supporting the Senate mark will hurt people who are eligible & qualified for Medicaid.”

These numbers for ice are insane
If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029:
- $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion
- $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million
- $8 billion for hiring/retention
- Billions more.

Masked ICE thugs terrorized Chicago yesterday.
They lied to immigrants waiting for their court hearing by summoning them for “surprise check-ins” and then assaulted protesters and elected officials.
THIS IS WHAT FASCISM LOOKS LIKE.

Trump is talking about shuttering publications and networks he disagrees with. He's talking about deporting and imprisoning Americans who dissent. This is unprecedented and undemocratic.
