I really wonder what #MagaMike's imagined endgame is. Does he think that if he waits long enough, he can convince one of the Republicans who signed the Discharge Petition to un-sign? Does he intend to keep the House closed forever? WTF is he really doing?
Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103. 12 days of work in 103 days. 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.

On this @60Minutes interview. Trump lies as he breathes. He lies every time he opens his mouth. We’ve never ever faced this before. And the media still has no fucking clue how to deal with it. It is pointless to interview him if you don’t fact check his lies. It’s just pointless.

Don't be mad at this... be mad that you didnt vote for Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris to stop this nonsense... but many of you proudly rejected them but all of sudden crying in social media acting like you like the you had the opportunity to stop all of this foolishness.

You may not agree, but his shutdown really shows how the entire GOP under Trump is totally unable to negotiate, can’t govern, can’t lead, and can’t put the American people before their own egos. They’re all being controlled by a convicted felon.

Gee, all those fauxgressives who were apoplectic because Democrats didn't end the filibuster really wanted the same thing Trump wants.
“TERMINATE THE FILIBUSTER, NOT JUST FOR THE SHUTDOWN, BUT FOR EVERYTHING ELSE. WE WILL GET ALL OF OUR COMMON SENSE POLICIES APPROVED (VOTER ID, ANYONE?) AND MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN…” - President Donald J. Trump

It's Monday, and Trump still is a 34-times convicted felon, and a serial rapist and pedophile.

HOLY HELL; 🔥 JB Pritzker just went nuclear on Trump: “Donald Trump and his bootlickers have torn down the Department of Education from the inside. Books are being banned. History is being erased. And Donald Trump and his cronies can f*** all the way off.” This is how you call

Bring it on, fascist scum. You won't like what gets revealed.
Judge Boasberg signed off on secret subpoenas for the cell phone records of at least 9 Senate Republicans, including me. He took off his judicial robe and became a partisan crusader. It’s time to impeach Judge Boasberg.

Because we dont whine at community building ... thats what real progressives do.... so if youre expecting us to be mad at adults being mature to still disagree and support the bigger picture then you already failed the test of what defines leadership.
Barack Obama and Kamala Harris are complimenting Mamdani. How is this not pissing off moderate Democrats who voted for both of them?!

All of the "pro-Palestinian" protesters and social media accounts are pro-Trump racists and are neo-Nazi fascist trolls. All of them. So are the DSA posters and elected reps. All of them. No exceptions. It's possible to support Palestinians, but not if you slam Democrats.

If anyone says Biden is "cognitively impaired," it's clear that account is a RW trollbot who has never heard of Trump.
