The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.
Want to know why?
Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they donโt want it out.
Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

Rethinking DโArcy McGee in a Age of Political Violence
As the world watches the frightening spiral of political violence in the United States, I have found myself thinking a great deal about DโArcy McGee.
In an age of toxic rhetoric and escalating political violence we need to conjure the spirit of D'Arcy McGee.
He gave his life for the principle that our nation will survive if we focus on what binds us rather than on what divides.

Trump says heโll send troops to Portland, authorizes โfull forceโ
The president says the feds will provide โall necessary troopsโ and called Portland โwar-ravagedโ
WA Democrats stand with OR in condemning this wasteful overreach. Republicans are shutting down the government in a few days instead of saving healthcare for millions of Americans. We will not be distracted from Republicans complete inability to govern and the chaos they continue to sow.

Iโve had my real criticisms and disappointments regarding Justin Trudeau as Canadaโs Prime Minister, as well as my compliments.
But heโs done far more for Canada in the last month and days than Pierre Poilievre has done in his entire political career (which is the only career Pierreโs had).

Pierre Poilievre has racked up endorsements from a who's who of fascists, fraudsters and alt-right influencers
Pierre Poilievre has racked up endorsements from Trumpists, fascists, alt-right influencers and disinformation specialists โ concerning.
Elon Musk may or may not have performed a Nazi salute during Trumpโs inauguration, but heโs definitely allowed neo-Nazi & far-right sites to flourish on X. Heโs also spent considerable time criticizing the Canadian PM & our government, while heaping praise on Poilievre.

I see people posting that Elon was at Auschwitz this time last year - therefore, his recent "gesture" is not antisemitic. I was there, too. Last year. With Elon. I am embarrassed that I have photos of this on my phone. My love, Gidon Lev, was the "special guest" of this photo-op event. We thought, at the time, that it would be good publicity. But I would not share the photo today. I chatted with Elon Musk. I spent hours with him and walked with him through Auschwitz. I stood with him, looking at the nauseating heaps of hair, luggage, and shoes flooded with violet light meant to preserve it.
Is Musk an antisemite? People, actually, it's worse - he doesn't care whatsoever. Elon, father of "little X" as he described his freezing cold son to me, literally does not care. He was unmoved by the experience. For Gidon, to be in the place where his father, Ernst, died on a death march - whether shot by the side of the road or having simply collapsed - was a huge deal. Elon did not care. He was about his press junket and his bodyguards. I was ten feet from him as he posed for the cameras of his entourage. He was utterly detached. He cared about how he looked. When he placed a wreath at Auschwitz and Gidon was overlooked, he walked away with the cameras whirring. This is Elon Musk. A sociopath, if ever there was one. To deduce, from this visit, that he is a friend of the Jews is desperately naive.
Julie Gray, wife of Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev, who joined Musk in his visit to Auschwitz speaks out. She says that Musk felt nothing during the tour & only "cared about how he looked."
She shared this with me privately shortly after the tour, and I'm grateful she made her thoughts public.

Thanks to @lindamcquaig.bsky.social for this insightful look at the fake populism of Pierre Poilievre - a man who has never held a job other than political rat his whole life.
