Republicans hold the House and Senate majority, plus the executive branch of the government, therefore, the shutdown of government is the Republicans’ fault. DUH…🙉🕊️🇺🇸

Give Elon another trillion; maybe he can fix it while people starve. 🇺🇸

Congressional Budget Office believed to be hacked by foreign actor The Congressional Budget Office formulates economic projections for lawmakers, and every bill taken up in either chamber of Congress gets a CBO “score” of how much it would add to the national debt.

The Congressional Budget Office, lawmakers’ nonpartisan bookkeeper, was hacked by a suspected foreign actor, potentially exposing the key financial research data Congress uses to craft legislation.

Opinion | Nancy Pelosi Retires as a Master of Congress She’ll rightly be lionized as the first woman speaker, but in one sense, that was the most incidental of her myriad accomplishments.

Nancy Pelosi’s “blend of power and diplomacy allowed her to run her caucus and the House with an iron fist inside a velvet glove,” writes John Lawrence, Pelosi’s former chief of staff.

America Is Great When America Is Good Those who believe in liberty and dignity must never give in to the forces arrayed against the things we hold dearest.

“The story of this country is the story of patience in tribulation, and hope in the face of fear,” Nancy Pelosi argues. “What we choose to do in this hour of our history will determine the shape of America and the world for decades.”

Sick…

"When Christopher Parente, an attorney for Martinez, asked Exum what he meant by those messages, he responded: "I'm a firearms instructor and I take pride in my shooting skills.""

Drug running not ok; Trump killing not ok. Neither needs to be given leeway. 🇺🇸🕊️

They also call everything they like “brilliant.” Not terribly discerning. Jus’ sayin’…🕊️🇺🇸

“He’s having a seizure and they’re trying to rip the baby out of her hands”

He is incompetent…and, unfortunately so his his ship of fools. The ship is sinking…🇺🇸🕊️

Yep. Into the ground.

Unbelievably ignorant, noncaring, politically idiotic, and cruel madness from the gold king …🇺🇸🕊️

Trump Administration Seeks Immediate Halt to Court Order to Pay Food Stamps The appeal comes one day after a judge sharply attacked the White House for politicizing the anti-hunger program

The Trump administration moved on Friday to deny swift and full food stamp payments to millions of low-income Americans, as it asked a federal appeals court to halt a judge’s recent order that would preserve those benefits during the shutdown.

Clearly @repdexteror.bsky.social's error was not wearing body armor and chanting Hang Mike Pence -- bc Mike Johnson really digs that.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 95th day out of the last 107.

12 days of work in 107 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Frankly the definition of Democrat would also cover those values. 😎🇺🇸

Hey, MAGA, Wake Up!!!

Cats not cars.

Misogyny has ben rampant in Silicon Valley for two decades. Sad that some men do not appreciated the fact they would not exist without women.

RFK Jr's response to someone collapsing nearby him was to haul ass out of the room as quickly as possible

For almost four decades, Nancy Pelosi has served the American people and worked to make our country better. No one was more skilled at bringing people together and getting legislation passed – and I will always be grateful for her support of the Affordable Care Act.

Watching RFK jr run away from someone collapsing feels like a harbinger of things to come

A federal judge ordered the Trump administration to pay full SNAP benefits for November by Friday, rejecting the administration’s plan to partially fund the program during government shutdown.

@nicollewallace.bsky.social reports.

Cars are more caring…

Great in an emergency, eh? Such caring awareness. 🙈

First the ticky tacky gold doodads and paper sign outside the Oval. Now this. The WH is starting to look like a weird theme park or Carnival cruise ship. 🤮

A Border Patrol agent bragged about shooting someone, texts show "Sweet. My fifteen mins of fame. Lmao."

An immigration enforcement officer who shot a US citizen in Chicago last month bragged about the incident in texts afterwards, according to court documents filed in federal court on Wednesday.
