The House elects a Speaker who then swears in the House but they're not the House until they're sworn in so the Clerk presides over the not-yet-sort-of House but they aren't really the Clerk yet either because the House has to appoint them which they can't do until they are the House.

Finally, I am sure others have covered, but ... Judge Kacsmaryk finally moved on the mifepristone case that he should have dismissed more than a year ago now. Instead, he transferred the states' challenge to mifepristone access to the federal court in the Eastern District of Missouri.

WATCH: “If Trump & Republicans get what they want, millions will lose health care and the rest of us will see our monthly bills shoot up.” Sylvia explains why the Dems are fighting. #TrumpShutdown

Is Ted Cruz once again defending Donald Trump

ok now that this information is useless, i present to you EJ antoni’s HS yearbook photo and quote which were provided to me when i was initially looking into his shady past:

The government is officially shut down. Make no mistake: Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. This is THEIR shutdown. They had every tool to govern and chose chaos instead. The American people are the ones paying the price.

failed nation state shit

Here’s 3 full minutes of @kaitlancollins trying to get @SpeakerJohnson to admit undocumented people can’t get federal health care, and Johnson repeating the lie over and over anyway. Republicans are kicking people off insurance then lying about who they’re doing it to.

Even if you work for the government, it’s good to have a skill to fall back on.

This is the Grindr profile claim I was referencing.

He’s blocking her because she would be the final vote necessary to force a vote on releasing the Epstein files. He’s doing this to protect pedophiles. Release his Grindr profile!

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

Hillary Clinton referred to SOME Trump supporters as”deplorable,” and the political media had a meltdown. Trump refers to all Democrats as anti-American radical communists and “the enemy within,” and it’s no big deal. His reckless and dangerous demonization has been fully normalized.

This is why we fund scientists to study things like oyster slobber even if you don’t think it sounds important

Federal workers tonight keep forwarding me highly unusual partisan emails from inside their agencies about the shutdown. This one is from NARA, the agency responsible for preserving official government records.
