Speaker Mike Johnson is set to take viewers’ calls on C-SPAN’s “Washington Journal” Thursday morning.

there is a government shutdown with no end in sight and it’s not even really the lead story rn because the president can’t stop invading American cities for no reason other than spite

And now for a report from the hellish, war-zone that is Portland

Speaker Mr. Johnson delays swearing in newly elected Arizona Democrat . Only purpose is to delay a vote on releasing complete Epstein files.

I posted this one week after the election in 2024. Holds up.

No one is above the law. The public deserves transparency & accountability from government leaders. We'll be in court to get answers.

#BSCuomo Being from NY is not what you have in common! You are both entitled white guys who abuse women and suck at governing.

The entire country is walking on eggshells because a madman is hallucinating about crime sprees and burning cities.

Pritzker is also furious: “Should National Governors Association leadership choose to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.”

Update on Boomertifa from the war zone.

Trump attempted to deploy the California and Texas National Guard in Portland after a judge halted his bid to send Oregon National Guard troops to the city.

It seems clear—I think to everyone, now—that a false and illegal invocation of the Insurrection Act is coming before the end of the year. Media outlets should be telling us how they will prepare for this potential Treason. State governments should be telling us. Activists should be developing plans.

NEW: A top Texas Republican revealed in federal court Monday he didn’t tell legislators about a phone call with the national GOP operative who drew the state’s new gerrymandered congressional map. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

There’s just not enough attention being paid to how unqualified, psychologically unfit, and dangerous so many of these new ICE hires potentially are. If we had a Congress, there’d be investigations & oversight into this.

Letting the health care tax credits expire would devastate American families — and we’re making that crystal clear by giving you the data. We’ve built graphics showing how much costs would rise in every GOP district. Let’s start with Mike Johnson (R-LA):

This guy conned the con.

This.

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s. This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

Kerry Kennedy announced that late-night host Stephen Colbert is the recipient of the 2025 Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award for his advocacy for free speech and speaking truth to power RFK Jr. is FURIOUS. 👏 Let's show Stephen some love!

Whoa! The shutdown’s ripple effect starting to hit. Burbank Airport in LA County has no air traffic controllers on duty due to sick calls, last-minute day-off requests, and staffing shortages. If you’re flying anywhere in the country, check for delays.

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker explains what he believes is Donald Trump's real goal in normalizing a military presence in U.S. cities by dressing ICE and Border Patrol agents in military gear. Watch:

Rayfield: When Trump learned that this was a judge who was appointed by him, he said he wasn’t served well. To have any president or any politician in America say a judge is not serving them—words can’t even describe how backwards that is. Phang: He’s not the king. He’s the court jester.

#AppleisTraitor Tell Tim Cook that Apple users are appalled by their capitulation to ICE/DOJ on taking down ICE block app. There is nothing illegal about it, their allegations are pretext and BS! Tell Apple that boycott is coming if they don't stand up for Free Speech NOW!

Congressional Rs now hiding behind Russell Vought, before it was Elon Musk. Let's make noise people. He wasn't elected and he is conducting unlawful actions. You can't get more power to cancel appropriated projects during a shutdown. Not the law.

Just gave you money! Sue the bastards.

Thank you, General (Retired) Mark Hertling, for saying what all of us who have served know we serve the Constitution and will not execute any order that goes against our oath.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It’s about control.

Absolutely- but we are not going to send the Military to attack them- let's be clear about that. The President is unhinged and should be impeached for declaring war on Americans.

Continues to fail us in so many ways!

Gov. Beshear: “What we're seeing on the other side is the president making threats, almost negotiating through blackmail, saying, 'If you don't agree to exactly what I want, I'm going to fire a whole bunch of people and cause a lot of pain.”

We are watching it in real time!

Working without pay???
