“They think that they’re tough. They have no idea how tough we are. They think that they’re hardcore. We are so much more hardcore than they are.” --Stephen Miller speaking to Memphis police earlier this month.

Imagine if other Epstein associates were stripped of their titles and evicted from their homes for their activities. Or if the media even cared enough about them to investigate.

The times when Republicans and their rich donors can squeeze the American worker is done. The people are amassing and are organizing. Do you realize the average homeowner buyer is now 56? 40 years ago it was age 31. Now you want to take away our healthcare, or limit it or squeeze it away. Hell no.

Yes, indeed — what is Mike Johnson's Grindr handle?

When paychecks stop during a shutdown, bills don’t. My Emergency Relief for Federal Workers Act would allow our civil servants to tap retirement savings without penalty to get through tough times during a government shutdown. We owe them that much. youtube.com/shorts/SR9Uh...
