Johnson: "It's true that in previous shutdowns, many or most furloughed employees have been paid for the time they were furloughed, but there is new legal analysis - I don't know the details, I just saw a headline - but there are some legal analysts saying that might not be appropriate or necessary"

This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent. Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.

Pritzker is right. They want to normalize troops in cities so they can steal every election just like Putin does.

Sen. Ruben Gallego says the impacts of the shutdown pale in comparison to the calamity that would ensue if the Obamacare subsidies expire: “If we don’t get ACA tax credit extensions, over 100,000 Arizonans are going to double their premiums on their health insurance. That’s painful and permanent.”

‼️ReTHUGlicans Continue to PROTECT PEDOPHILES‼️

Maybe Abbott can explain why the president didn’t deploy the National Guard when tRump supporters converged on our Capitol to prevent the peaceful transfer of power on 1/6/21? Maybe Abbott could also explain why the convicted violent criminals on 1/6/21 were pardoned by tRump?

Same abbott that sent immigrants to Chicago during s cold spell? So is abbott admitting guilt if immigration laws must be observed?

CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.

BREAKING: Country singer Zach Bryan condemns ICE raids in new song “Bad News”: “And ICE is gonna come, bust down your door — Try to build a house no one builds no more, but I got a telephone. Kids are all scared and all alone.”

Remember the Pam Bondi dynamic: for two decades she's had the "well we have to book SOMEBODY, even that idiot Bondi" role in cable news. Now she has stature and professional hair colorists and ad libs written for her. She's in Pam Bondi heaven and will do or say anything to stay there

By all means, indict Jack Smith on bullshit allegations and give him the trial that SCOTUS denied him. Poke the bear, Donnie. See what happens.

Miles was chief of staff at DHS in Trump’s first term 👇🏽

The problems that we as a nation have sought to illuminate, so that we can remedy them, are disappearing — not because the problems are disappearing or have been remedied, but because we will no longer know about them. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/turning-out-the-lights-on-the-economy

BONDI: The National Guard is on the way right now as we speak. You're sitting here grilling me and they're on their way to Chicago to keep your state safe. DURBIN: It's my job to grill you

This is the Epstein files shutdown.

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

Do the Republicans understand when people can't afford health insurance it falls on the hospitals to care for them and tax payers pay for it.

Murray: I talked to a family that’s paying about $300 a month for their health insurance. It’s going to jump to over $1,800 per month. Many people will turn away and not pay for it—obviously, they’ll lose their health insurance. The fewer people who have insurance, the more everybody pays.

I forget-- who controls the White House, Senate, and House?

Even without the mug shot, it’s pretty clear who the real criminal is.

We must rise every weekend, and we must go out in the millions on the 18! It's go time! The 18th will be the deciding factor for a civil war or not. This is our last chance and it has to be 10+ million. See you on the 18th, bring friends, neighbors, family!

The COUP is complete; we have to get past the 1st stage of grief, denial or all will be lost.

This strikes me as pretty bad

Mike Johnson ignores a question about when he'll swear in Rep.-elect Grijalva and walks away

The WE THE PEOPLE, American Citizens want to know {Where is the 17 trillion collected by Trump}

Now you know

SCHIFF: Was it true when the White House press secretary denied that Homan took the money? BONDI: I was not in office, I was not confirmed, when that was handled SCHIFF: Did he take the money? BONDI: That happened prior to my confirmation

Elections, rights, and freedoms are under attack — and America is running out of time to save its democracy. Experts’ warnings reflect a country where voter suppression, gerrymandering, corporate influence, a compliant Supreme Court, and executive overreach are eroding the foundations of democracy.

Thou shalt put all these war criminals on trial at the Hague.

Schiff: Did Homan take the money? Bondi: If you worked for me, you would have been fired because you were censured by congress.

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

ICE, who spends their days abusing, kidnapping, & dragging crying children from their homes in the dark of night to zip tie them, are being denied service at restaurants in Chicago..........monsters should always be denied service. #Pinks

Speaker Johnson continues to stall the swearing in of Rep.-elect Grijalva so as to avoid having to deal with the Epstein discharge petition. Why shouldn’t Dems make support for reopening the government contingent on adding to the funding measure a provision mandating release of the Epstein files?

Attorney General Pam Bondi refused Tuesday to answer senators' questions about investigations into former FBI Director James Comey and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. www.axios.com/2025/10/07/a...
