There is a compromise on the table to get this deal done and reopen the government while keeping health insurance premiums down. But the sole problem, plain and simple, is Mike Johnson.

Prosecutors Can Indict a Ham Sandwich, But Can They Convict? What happens when you indict a ham sandwich?

The grand jury refused to indict felony charges so DOJ brought a misdemeanor. The trial jury acquittedโ€”note: that means that every single person on the jury voted for acquittal. There wasnโ€™t even a single vote to convict. joycevance.substack.com/p/prosecutor...

I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC

I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents.

I am in contact with @dcmigrantmutualaid.org with the full video.

Layoffs rise to recession-like levels through October, new report says Employers have announced 1.1 million job cuts so far this year, the highest reading since the pandemic, according to a report from Challenger, Gray & Christmas.

A RI judge has ordered the Trump administration to deliver SNAP payments in full by Friday, saying the evidence shows that โ€œneedless suffering will occur.โ€ It is unbelievable that the GOP is fighting this hard to ensure Americans will go hungry.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106.

12 days of work in 106 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.

It's been 43 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district to represent them in Congress.

Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in.

The utter stupidity of pursuing a criminal trial against someone for throwing a sandwich that bounced off a bullet proof vest pissing away hundreds of thousands of dollars for this joke is the perfect encapsulation of this Administration.

I donโ€™t know how many times Iโ€™ve watched this video.

I donโ€™t know how weโ€™ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while theyโ€™re watching children.

But I do know that this isnโ€™t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

It's no longer left versus right or even Democrat versus Republican.

Itโ€™s now democracy versus oligarchy. Freedom versus dictatorship. Right versus wrong.

Millions are awakening to this new reality โ€” and they're speaking up.

The sleeping giant of America is roaring.

Oh, you simple-minded, wheezing gargoyle . . . you were very much on the ballot. You are blamed for the shutdown. You are blamed from SNAP shutting down. You are blamed for a bad economy. And numerous people interviewed last night mentioned that seeing the East Wing destroyed motivated them to vote.
