I am completely awestruck by the ease with which Mike Johnson lies on a daily basis. I'll never understand how such a transparently fraudulent "man of faith" can live with themselves. Life is too short to be that phony.

We need to remove the cancer in the Oval Office to restore funding to children’s cancer research.

NEW: Cardinal Blase Cupich, the Archbishop of Chicago, has issued a new statement declaring that Chicago "communities are shaken by immigration raids and detentions. These actions wound the soul of our city. Let me be clear. The Church stands with migrants."

The average age of U.S. homebuyers is now 56, up from 49 last year. In 1981, the year trickledown economics began, it was 31.

Covid is a mass disabling event that is still ongoing. Over 20 million people have been affected. The US is gutting healthcare and social supports. They’re pushing a eugenicist agenda. ICE is also disabling people, but we almost never hear about it. Mass disability & fascism are a deadly combo

Asking earnestly, how is the ballroom project at all legal under the Anti Deficiency Act? www.gao.gov/legal/approp...

41 million people (including 20 million kids) will lose access to food in a few days while a new 90,000 square foot ballroom is being added to the White House. This political moment is profoundly disgusting.

If North Carolina enacts this new map, it will be sued. I don't bluff and I usually win.

Good.

Breaking: Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes has just filed a lawsuit to try to force Mike Johnson to swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva.

Okay let me weigh in on a couple things: The WH can be restored. The Rose Garden can be restored. However, until we restore democracy in this country and remove the criminals in charge nothing will change. It’s not rocket science people. It’s simple facts.

Hundreds of people protesting ICE in downtown manhattan right now. Reads and Broadway. NYPD cops in riot gear on scene.

Both the U.S. marshal and the immigrant were shot by federal officers. You’d never know that from this headline.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

🚨BREAKING: The State of Arizona filed a lawsuit accusing House Speaker Mike Johnson of violating the Constitution by refusing to swear in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva. The plaintiffs argue that Johnson’s delay has deprived hundreds of thousands of Arizonans of representation.

I always knew that some portion of Americans were soulless fuckers. But I never could’ve imagined that a major American political party — the party of Lincoln — would be made up entirely of soulless fuckers.

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

Fewer Americans see GOP as better for protecting US, keeping it prosperous: Gallup

If I were ever elected president, the first thing I’d do is take a sledgehammer to that ballroom.

He bulldozed the White House. During a shutdown. To build a ballroom.

A free campaign ad for Mamdani.

I’m disgusted by the photos of Ttump’s demolition at the East Wing, but I’m even more sickened by the renderings of his mar-a-lago ballroom dwarfing our White House. Once we’re rid of this despicable man, that ballroom must also be removed.

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"

CHICAGO: “They took my son. He’s only 16. I just want my baby back.”

Now Trump wants the DOJ to just hand him another $230 Million directly. A bottomless pit of greed and corruption. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/21/u...

there are good & worthwhile historical & legal arguments for why the unitary executive is nonsense but to my mind the most straightforward argument is that it makes no logical sense that the president has absolute removal power over the people whose job it is to keep the executive branch accountable

Yassss!!! ❤️🤍💙‼️

This lawsuit, which demands that the House of Representatives finally seat Rep. Adelita Grijalva, has, um, fairly major implications for our democracy's survival in 2026 and beyond. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Jackie Kennedy talks about the history of the White House during her tour in 1962. This feels especially relevant today as parts of the WH are currently being demolished! What a travesty this regime has imposed upon us.

NEW: AZ AG Kris Mayes and Adelita Grijalva have filed suit asking the court to declare Grijalva a member of the House once she's sworn in, and if Johnson won't do it, to allow someone else to. www.abc15.com/news/state/a...

YES!!! Arizona isn’t playing. Mike Johnson thinks he can hold democracy hostage, but Adelita Grijalva is done waiting for permission to get to work for her constituents. Also: RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

Was the demand for dancing by White House visitors greater than the entire American citizenry's desperate need for proper health care???

Unsurprising. He should resign.

It’s been said a million times, I know, but the press would have swarmed on meandering, nonsensical drivel like this coming from Biden and their silence is absolutely enraging to me

Talking to you @edokeefecbs.bsky.social

Everything Trump touches turns to shit.

Legal experts are sounding the alarm on a shocking federal appeals court ruling that all but permitted President Donald Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops into Portland, Oregon. They warn that, if upheld, the order would give Trump unbridled power to use the military domestically

🧵 2/2 ICE SOB has no remorse for pointing a weapon at a pregnant woman!

No, bro — It’s not “cancel culture”, it’s consequence culture. Stephen Smith isn’t being “canceled,” he’s being called out.

Pardoned by Trump Jan. 6th Capitol rioter charged with threatening to murder Hakeem Jeffries at NYC event this week. He is not the first pardoned Capitol rioter to be arrested on new, separate charges. www.cbsnews.com/news/pardone...

Thank you President Biden!

As predicted.

OPINION: "[T]he American press corps’ reluctance to call out what Illinois Governor JB Pritzker describes as Trump’s increasingly 'unhinged' behavior is a recipe for disaster," Kevin Howley writes. buff.ly/lX5lZMr
