Mike Johnson said earlier today the House won't hold a standalone vote to protect military pay amid the shutdown, calling it a "show vote."
“It is insane not to pay our troops,” says Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.). “Some are in high-risk missions. You want them thinking about whether they can get paid?”

Surreal moment for America. Needless to say, if the normal police ever pulled something like this — pulling every single person out of an apartment building and handcuffing them to run warrant checks — they would be sued into oblivion.
Yet ICE is going to get away with it entirely.

WOW. The lead plaintiff is a Latino man who's been here legally for 24 years. He was grabbed off the street by plainclothes federal agents who didn't even ASK about his status.
He was detained overnight and only released once a supervisor realized he had been illegally arrested.

Just a reminder: they were never actually against cancel culture. They were against the cancellation of people they agree with or like. They’ve always been enthusiastically in favor cancelling people they don’t like. If you took them at their word you’re a useful idiot.

“.. I can’t remember anyone ever telling me we can’t say anything critical about a civilian like this. He was not in our chain of command or anything,” the officer said.

Trump wants to get rid of mail-in ballots so he can intimidate voters with federal troops stationed at the polling stations.
Hard to scare people who can just quietly mail in their votes.
Protect mail-in voting at all cost.

The short timeline is:
Summer 2000: Epstein "steals" Virginia Giuffre and turns her into a sex slave
October 2002: Trump tells New York, "t is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side."

Trump admits that Jeffrey Epstein “stole” young girls from him at Mar-a-Lago’s “spa” and brought them into his child sex trafficking ring. This includes Virginia Giuffre who died by suicide in April.
