Wow, lots of American flags and peace . Sure doesn’t seem like people who hate America you absolute embarrassment Speaker Johnson

Coast Guard bought Kristi Noem two private jets (I guess if one breaks down). Cost: $172 million. Is that what you call draining the swamp?

The antifa terrorist marxists are out

Democracy dies in silence. …when people are too afraid or don’t care enough to speak up. Not today. MILLIONS of Americans and allies of freedom and democracy, here and around the world, are taking to the streets. Showing their love of country and defiance of tyranny. It’s a beautiful sight.

Heads up, California. CHP just announced that a stretch of I-5 will be closed Saturday, October 18, for a military event at Camp Pendleton. The freeway will stay shut until it’s over, and yes, they’re planning to fire live rounds over the highway. What could possibly go wrong?

Release the damn Epstein files. NOW!!!

Mike Johnson, swear in Congresswoman Elect Adelita Grijalva. Enough with the BS, "we'll do it when the government opens". You loser, you are the one keeping republicans at home on vacation instead of gaveling in the house for session, which ONLY YOU have power to do.

But sure “everyone’s smiling” as Trump’s occupation tanks D.C.’s small businesses. Sarcasm, of course. If nothing changes, Chicago may soon see the same pattern.

- Tourism is taking a hit, with conference groups canceling or reconsidering D.C. as a venue. - Hotels report lower occupancy and have slashed rates amid weakening demand.

MAGA says everyone in D.C. is smiling since the Trump invasion. Let’s look at some facts: - Small retailers and restaurants report much lower foot traffic since the National Guard and federal agents began patrolling.

Secretly deploying Guard from one state into another, for politics, just further damages the trust Americans have had in an apolitical military.

In a stunning development, the Trump administration admits in court that it has moved California National Guard members into Chicago, which to this point has been done in secret. To be clear, there is no security reason to have withheld this information from the American people.

This is that "plenary" authority Stephen Miller was referring to in the now edited CNN interview. Arguing that the president's deployment of troops is unreviewable by the courts is arguing that his power is plenary.

TONIGHT: As Trump’s brain continues to deteriorate, he's indiscriminately sending the military after US citizens. The Breakdown airs at 7 PM EST: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLTW-w_O-3Y

A big premium spike can be a political nightmare for the party in charge, as anybody who lived through the Obamacare rollout can attest. That’s the whole reason Republicans seem so uncertain about their current position.

There was supposed to be an Epstein survivors press conference yesterday. Was it canceled? I haven't heard anything.

I’m encouraged by the framework reached to release the remaining hostages, end hostilities, surge humanitarian aid, and bring this war closer to its overdue end. The success of this deal, and the prospects for peace, rely on its implementation.

"Why is Kelly, not someone known to dodge a high-profile political fight, shrinking from this one? She claims it’s because, as a matter of principle, she won’t be forced to take positions under pressure. I have another explanation." www.thebulwark.com/p/why-is-meg...

WE'RE ALL UPSET MAGA MIKE

Marjorie Taylor Greene: "I'm talking about the Epstein list. I genuinely don't understand why there's been any effort to hide this & prevent it from coming out. But b/c of the efforts for years now to hide it, it certainly makes you feel afraid when you're one of the ones truly on the frontlines."

A troll on the Other Place asked why the ACA needed to be "fixed". Here’s how Trump & the GOP tried to kill and sabotage the ACA—making it costlier. Now they want to let the tax credits expire too. 𝗡𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗮𝘅 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗼𝗼. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗴𝗼𝘁 𝘂𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁!

The irony of 🟠 abetting peace in the Middle East while he unleashes the American military on his own people.

C-SPAN caller to Mike Johnson: "Hearing you say that 'everyone is smiling' in cities where troops have been rolled into feels dystopian and insane watching the response to it."

My choice for the Nobel Peace Prize this year: Chef José Andrés and the World Central Kitchen.

Rep. Madeleine Dean confronted Mike Johnson on Capitol Hill yesterday, demanding accountability for Trump’s latest gross behavior. Dean said Trump's AI nonsense: “It’s disgraceful. It’s bigoted. It’s racist. You should call it out.” The fact Johnson refuses to is absolutely deplorable.

In all the chaos, I would urge folks to remember that a lot of folks now don’t know when their next check will come. The vast majority are good people who love this nation deeply, and many of them are still working despite not knowing when they’ll be paid Have compassion.

Just to note. January 23, 2019 there was a vote to reopen government (HJ RES 28, roll call vote 46) when the govt had been shut down for 30 days. Mike Johnson voted “no” on that. They didn’t seem to mind shutdowns then

Jane Goodall’s life reminds us to lead with kindness & curiosity. Her work with primates (especially chimpanzees) and her voice for conservation will always inspire us to care more deeply for our planet. Dr. Jane Goodall, legendary animal rights advocate, dies at 91 www.nbcnews.com/news/obituar...

Folks — this is not a normal government shutdown. Let me explain the stakes and how we got here.
