Raskin details how he tried to get unanimous consent today to force Johnson to swear in Adelita Grijalva, but the Acting Speaker Haridopolos "scurried out of the room"

It’s hard to convey just how much Chicagoans are mobilizing against ICE. Don’t want to downplay the harm, or make it seem like a fair fight. But in neighborhoods across this city, ICE is getting chased by people blowing whistles and shouting. People are running TOWARD ICE to protect their neighbors.

It's the guns 💯%

While we spectate on The East Wing being torn down, it isn’t just another hallway, it’s where Eleanor Roosevelt built the modern Office of the First Lady, where WWII bunkers were hidden, and where the public enters the People’s House. Erasing it is rewriting history.

Reminder: while millions of federal employees scramble to make ends meet while they go without pay during this Republican shutdown… … House Republicans are on a month-long paid vacation.

Frogs in slowly heating water is a popular allegory for being unaware that you are being destroyed in an incrementally worsening situation. But I'm drawing hope from the past week that we frogs may be a bit more aware of our situation than those allegorical frogs. #Hop

Tom Homan and the Case of the Missing Fifty Thousand Lawmakers and ordinary citizens have to keep asking about the bag of cash, or accept an executive branch without any accountability.

They use govt accounts, employees & resources to make partisan political messages. They make partisan political speeches attacking the opposition party to troops routinely. They get pardoned when they commit crimes. They ignore the laws. There is zero congressional oversight.

She was legally declared a victim of a crime in a court of law, she was not an "accuser," she was a VICTIM

Trump’s corrupt pardons are infuriating. But abolishing the pardon power entirely would hurt innocent people, not just him. Fix the abuse—not the safeguard. My latest 👇 Objection: Don’t End Presidential Pardons open.substack.com/pub/objectio...

“We found over 35 cases in which the judges have specifically said what the government is providing…false information. It might be intentionally false information, including false sworn declarations time and again," says Ryan Goodman, law professor at New York University.

The prevailing myth is only a few, wealthy families owned slaves. While that myth surely makes some neo-Confederate, treason apologists feel better, the reality of slaveholding in the South is mind-numbing. Ask a Confederate In their own words: The Civil War and Slavery medium.com/armedwithrea...
