Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva: “Let’s be clear — Speaker Johnson knows I’ll be the 218th signature to release the Epstein files. His delay isn’t leadership — it’s obstruction, plain and simple.

The victims deserve justice, and the truth will come out.”

YouTube video by Zohran Mamdani for NYC My Message to Muslim New Yorkers — and Everyone Who Calls This City Home.

The dream of every Muslim is simply to be treated the same as any other New Yorker.

And yet, for too long, we have been told to ask for less than that, and endure hatred and bigotry in the shadows.

No more.

Good. Took too long, but I’ll take it.

I assumed that second quote was satire, or at least a paraphrase. It’s not. The thug trash said that.

‘If the West Wing is the mind of the nation, then the East Wing is the heart.”

PSA: Do not attend universities that signed a cooperation agreement with ICE.

GOP: burning a flag disrespects the people who fought and died for that symbol

Also GOP: hahaha the White House is ours and we'll bulldoze it if we like, just be glad we left you the other half for now

"At this moment in time, of course, the release of the TRUMPSTEIN Files is really the public's main priority."

Has anyone confirmed that the priceless items in the East Wing were moved out before he demolished it?

It’s been over 2 weeks since AOC said Stephen Miller was weak and puny. Fox is still talking about it.

This really was one of my main takeaways

I'd settle for the Let Them Eat Cake Ballroom.

Seems like an important detail

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

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.

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor.

Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.

These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism.

This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.

Every American should reject it.

This man was part of a coalition of Reagan-era apartheid apologists who opposed U.S. opening talks with the African National Congress which he called a terrorist org. He has been a right wing activist for decades. His son was part of the Jan 6th mob and was convicted (later pardoned by Trump). 1/

Turnarounds in a country can surge from a weary, burdened People, who can no longer stand the heavy disparities between their poor life conditions and the brazen, cynical abuse against them from those in power.

A.I. can produce the possibilities of history repeating itself.

Authorizing military action without Congressional approval undermines the Constitution — it should be grounds for impeachment.

Jeffries: "He's found time to demolish the East Wing in the most horrific way possible bc he wants to erect a ballroom so he can be celebrated like a king. He's found time for all of these different things, but somehow can't be bothered to find a dime to extend the ACA tax credits."

FOLLOW THE MONEY: Billionaires and corporations with business in front of the Trump administration are coughing up millions to build Trump's BALLROOM.

What are these companies getting in return?

I'm pushing for answers.

Trump Administration Live Updates: Pentagon Accepts $130 Million Donation to Help Pay Troops During Shutdown

The amount is meaningless — less than one day of salary. But the principle is important: once the armed services are paid by the oligarchs, they become a private militia, and we no longer have a country.

Pay attention -- what he means is allowing Democrats to win a free and fair election.

Here’s another one we’ll have fun tearing down one day

Hmmm….

Alaska: $25 million
Argentina: $40 billion

The old rulebook is gone. It's not coming back and we all need to accept that. The DOJ is weaponized. the GOP is rigging elections. Trump is literally bulldozing the White House.

Democrats need to operate under this new reality, fight hard, and play by the same rules.

I can't believe this is the United States of America.

This is amazing!!

Good evening to all who remember Michelle Obama getting criticized for planting a vegetable garden at the White House.
