I want to take a shower after every time I hear Mike Johnson speak.

The #TrumpEpsteinShutdown

Well, it is as real as his other pronouncements.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Hold on a second. Answer the question. As Speaker, do you believe it's appropriate to use American cities as training grounds for the military, calling those people 'the enemy within'? JOHNSON: I'm not comment on your characterization of what the president said. S: Those are quotes

Instead of calling it a "Hatch Act Violation", call it what it is: "illegal federal corruption"

Trump attacked Judge Trevor McFadden as “liberal,” ignoring that McFadden is his own appointee and a former Trump DOJ lawyer. The judge had ruled Trump’s ban on AP reporters unconstitutional, leaving the president flailing in self-made irony.

now you know why we're dealing with all plumps distractions #ReleaseTheEpsteinFilesAndTapes

Absolutely! 👍👍👍 #NoKings #NoFascists

@chrislhayes.bsky.social reports from Chicago: "Nothing about this city feels like a war zone—to use this city and others like it as a "training ground" is dangerously deranged."

Blue states need to withhold their federal taxes. Let the red states tough it out. They already are.

Just try to imagine the public outcry and wall-to-wall media coverage if President Biden had cancelled $8 billion in funding to red states.

One thing the military leadership could do is call up the JAG Trump fired to avoid accountability and put the people who followed illegal orders sinking those civilian boats.

You all do what you want, but I will not be extending any olive branch to anyone just now realizing they’ve made a mistake and jumping ship. You shoulda jumped 1/6/21.

Imagine being a four star General lectured by morons and told your enemy is the citizens & denizens you were always trained to protect. They don’t buy this SHIT for a minute. 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

The Government is now shut down, but apparently nobody called the school in the Bronx that had come to the Capitol for their tour today, so they're getting the treat of a lifetime since AOC agreed to give them the tour herself! I’m loving this for all of them!

Sorry, but that’s one damn ugly queen.

Don't sleep on Michelle Wu, one of this country's most quietly effective climate leaders, cruising to a second term in Boston. It's telling that business interests tried and failed to stop her and are pouting about it now Gift link: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

20 billion tax payer dollars to bail out a whole other country. Tell me again how we can’t pay for every single child to have breakfast and lunch while they are at school.

Huge Ukrainian drone attack on Russia ongoing in three directions.

'He's not okay': Trump's speech sparks cognitive concerns for national security expert

With all this military focus on the enemy from within, just IMAGINE what the enemy from without is planning for us.

As the federal government enters a shutdown, Democratic Rep. Glenn Ivey defended his party's decision not to support the GOP stopgap funding bill, saying looming health care cuts will impact millions.

A real pleasure to sit down for an extended conversation on The View today. My thanks to the studio audience for the very warm welcome.

🎯 @repdean.bsky.social is right, and @SpeakerJohnson knows it. What is it called when everyone in a group is too afraid to criticize the leader for something they know is objectively wrong?

Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth were expecting rousing applause and standing ovations from our nation’s generals. They were met with silence. Generals know that what Trump is doing is wrong.

Why did the GOP shut down the government? Oh, that’s right—because Fat Satan demanded it.

‘War-ravaged’ cities don’t typically have artisanal kombucha on every corner.

Yom Kippur is a day of reflection, of forgiveness, of restoration. This year, may we all pray for a better, kinder, more peaceful future. Wishing all who observe across the five boroughs and the world a meaningful, easy fast. G’mar chatimah tovah.

Dem messaging right now should be this, loud and clear: "The GOP would rather shut down the government than let the American people have affordable healthcare." On repeat and everywhere.

Welcome to Heaven, Dr. Jane Goodall. You made the world a better place.

🚨BREAKING: On behalf of the NAACP and the NAACP New York State Conference, my law firm has filed to intervene as defendants in a DOJ lawsuit seeking access to New York state's voter registration data. www.democracydocket.com/cases/new-yo...

Then why are you providing a $20 billion bailout to Argentina and helping them cut deals with China that crush American soybean farmers?

Impeach him now..

Q: When he tried to hand you that Trump 2028 hat, what was your reaction? JEFFRIES: They just randomly appeared in the middle of the meeting on the desk. It was the strangest thing ever. I just looked at the hat, looked at JD Vance & said, 'Don't you got a problem with this?' He said, 'No comment.'

WATCH: @decodingfoxnews.bsky.social brings the receipts for @jessicatarlov.bsky.social’s on point 🎯 commentary on Fox about right-wing violence being more prevalent👇🏽 (despite Lawrence Jones’ gaslighting)

Boom

The only thing I want to hear out of elected Dems mouths is that the President is building his own little palace of Versailles addition to the White House during the shutdown because the admin has decided that they can spend money that wasn't appropriated by Congress and not spend money that was.

‘Are You Ready to Die for Qatar?’ Conservatives Rage Over Trump Pledge to Defend Terror Sponsor

Raskin: "It's not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not swear in our new colleague, Ms Grijalva from Arizona, who would be the 218th signature to discharge the Epstein files and to put a vote on that on the House floor."
