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!

Dick Cheney, one of the most powerful vice presidents in American history, dies at 84 Cheney, who extolled the power of the presidency, died Monday, according to a statement from his family. The cause was complications of pneumonia and cardiac and vascular disease.

Mixed feelings about this news. Sad for the family.

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.

I don't resent poor people who use food stamps to buy another soft drink.

I resent rich people who take away the funds for food stamps to buy another yacht.

I would like nothing more than to have the Dodgers tell tRump "thanks, but no thanks" on the visit to the WH. Unfortunately, the rich owners wld likely never allow that to happen. 😟 #worldseries #Dodgers #LADodgers

President Orange Julius Caesar and his ilk claim that guns are a God given right but don’t feel that food is a God given right. They claim to care about babies but don’t care if they go hungry when they become children.

Breaking: Trump just banned states from being able to wipe medical debt from Americans’ 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 Americans’ 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

Interesting, isn't it. I found Reagan's quotes regarding the ills of tariffs early this year from good political historians. However, I suppose it didn't make "good entertainment", so it went largely unreported.πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈπŸ™„

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here β€œFAKE” and β€œfraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:
