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.

I gave to 6 of the 8 Dem US Senators who are considering a vote for the CR in exchange for "strong assurances" frm the GOP that they'll address expiring healthcare subsidies. WTF?Repubs are LIARS!! NO! Don't come knocking @ my door w some sob story when you're primaried!

Any Democrats who agree to open the government had better be prepared to be primaried and lose their next election. This is a betrayal of the American people, and it breaks my heart that these weak Democrats would even contemplate breaking with the party.

Breaking: Trump just banned states from being able to wipe medical debt from Americansβ credit reports.
The Biden-Harris administration had moved to wipe medical debt from credit reports. Now this new rule will keep $220 billion in medical bills on Americansβ records.

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

Inflation Remains Low as
Democrat Shutdown Threatens
Progress
"Inflation came in below market expectations in September thanks to President Trump's economic agenda. This is good news for American families, and it's a shame the Democrats are using them as 'leverage' to fund health care for illegal aliens. Democrats choosing to keep the government closed will likely result in no October inflation report, which will leave businesses, markets, families, and the Federal Reserve in disarray." - White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
Inflation is inching higher partly due to the Trump's tariffs, according to economists. US businesses are eating some of the costs, which blunted the impact of import duties on consumers
Decrease in job openings and a cooling of the labor market also put downward pressure on inflation

Hereβs the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reaganβs words here βFAKEβ and βfraudulent.β Theyβre 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:
