Speaker Johnson: Federal employees aren’t being paid. Nutrition cuts may cause children to go hungry. Millions are seeing their health premiums soar.
End the 6 week paid vacation you’ve taken. Join your Democratic colleagues and negotiate an end to this shutdown.

IMPORTANT: The Dutch invest €595 million annually on urban biking, resulting in €19 BILLION saved in public health care costs alone. That’s how smart governments do the math on investing in better mobility.
Let’s be clear— it wastes public money to NOT do it.

Democrats should be drawing up legislation right now, this very minute, to bar Trump from helping himself to $230 million in taxpayer funds from DOJ. Challenge Republicans to hold a vote on it. Push this so hard in the media that every GOP Senate and House candidate is pressed to comment on it.

During a press conference a reporter asked Trump how long detainees would stay at Alligator Alcatraz. She asked the question twice. His answer was baffling. He spoke about Florida, his friends, his cottage, the Oval Office, New York City and taxes. This is a verbatim reading of what he said.
