Today, Mike Johnson will continue to keep the House adjourned for the 71st day out of the last 83, with Republicans refusing to show up to work again to avoid having to vote on the Epstein files or negotiate with Democrats.

Is this the country where you want to live? Where people get assaulted (and hospitalized) just for talking?
This is Brighton Park, the neighborhood where a U.S. Border Patrol agent also shot a woman earlier today. It is a predominantly Latine community on the southwest side.

Remarkable. A caller with a worldview entirely in line with the right still knows Johnson is to blame for abandoning his role in the Constitutional order.

Not noted enough that he's the worst Speaker in modern US history and the single greatest abettor of dictatorship not on the Supreme Court.

The Norwegian Nobel Committee’s decision to award the Peace Prize to María Corina Machado is the latest honor given to a female democracy campaigner in recent years. Here's what to know.

This is that "plenary" authority Stephen Miller was referring to in the now edited CNN interview. Arguing that the president's deployment of troops is unreviewable by the courts is arguing that his power is plenary.
Hamilton insists the president's decision is "unreviewable."

JB Pritzker has also been emphatically placing Trump's mental decline squarely on the agenda. On our pod, he adds a new element: People around Trump are using his decline to manipulate him, so they're less likely to intervene. More Dems should say this. 1/
