*sigh* I miss when a real Speaker was in charge.
THE HOUSE will wrap up for the year tomorrow. They were supposed to be in on Friday.

The Republicans attacks on the No Kings protests are sickening. To them, only pro-Trump speech is protected. If you oppose Trump - you "hate America" or you're a "terrorist". What they're trying to do is simple: suppress turnout this weekend. Don't let them win.

“Take care of” is not subtle. This weekend the ground has shifted and no person can deny what the president, unpopular and unfit, intends. To remain silent is to welcome this. They can both sides or claim they didn’t hear, but there is no wiggle room about his plans now.
Trump to the Navy: "We have to take care of this little gnat that's on our shoulder called the Democrats."

Democracy around the world is under siege, and let's be clear. No knight in shining armor is coming to save us. It's on all of us to save our countries and our rights.
"Democracy is under siege. It takes a great big village to save Democracy. *We* are that village." An important reminder from @HillaryClinton at #CGI2025 today.

A senior White House official is caught on tape accepting $50K in cash in a paper bag in exchange for steering contracts, and that person will go to work on Monday, and the entire GOP will be fine with it.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Our freedom of speech is one of the most precious rights enshrined in our Constitution. People have the right to say what they believe - even when we disagree. Free speech is not limited only to speech that we like.

A horrifying day for Shrewsbury, for the neighborhoods around Jordan Pond, and for our Coolidge School community.

Watergate was bad, esp until they pushed out even bigger criminal Spiro Agnew, but what we’re seeing now is the complete collapse of federal rule of law. Both JD and Trump use “we” every time they comment on DOJ. We

You don’t have to literally roll out the red carpet when you meet with a mass murdering dictator. This autocrat fluffing is pathetic.

Trump: We need a federal crackdown on crime. Also Trump: Ghislaine Maxwell’s schedule today includes pilates, golf, and painting class followed by dinner and a movie. Guess “crime” doesn’t include sex trafficking and pedophilia—as long as you’re friends with the president.

Trump could spend his time fighting childhood hunger, reforming healthcare, or building affordable housing. Instead, he’s focused on turning the White House into Versailles. His billionaire buddies get a tacky ballroom to feast on champagne & caviar. The rest of us? Let them eat
