I got my second #shingles vaccine yesterday. Today I feel like I have a severe #flu. This is the suck.
But itβs better than shingles.
Please comment with pictures of cats. Itβs what I need today get through today.

You all do realize #swearing in #Grijalva doesn't matter, right? The bill will pass the House. It likely won't pass the Senate, but even if it does, it will be vetoed. And there's no way there are the votes to override a veto.
The #Epstein files won't be released this way.
Someone's gotta leak.
Okay, presuming that the government re-opens and there's nothing that can be done about it, does that not mean the House must go into session? Does that then mean we get our 218th signature and a vote in seven days?
#epstein #house #shutdown #discharge #vote
Right?
I didnβt feel a thing!

βSwearing inβ is a ceremony. She can take any oath on her own by declaration.
She should just show up and start doing her job. Democrats should support this.

Perseus? Sure, everyoneβs quick to talk about βdecapitating Medusa,β but nobody mentions he was protecting his community from a known terrorist organization. He didnβt choose to weaponize her head; he repurposed it for national defense. Thatβs called efficiency.

If it passes the house, eventually, what hope is there of passing the senate?
