β€œI haven’t seen the emails. I haven’t read them. I don’t even know what emails are.”

- Mike Johnson this morning, probably.

US ethics officials removed for inquiring into improper access of mortgage files Fannie Mae officers were investigating whether Trump ally inappropriately accessed mortgage details of Letitia James, Adam Schiff and others

More brazen corruption.

"Ethics officials at Fannie Mae were removed from their jobs as they investigated whether a top Trump ally improperly accessed mortgage documents of [Felon's targets]."

That gaudy, grotesque place that used to be the Oval Office of which we could be proud? He's only temporarily using that space that we the people own. Let's not let him convince us otherwise. Like any bad tenant, once he’s evicted we can remove the junk left behind.

If Republicans took 10% of the time and effort they’ve spent covering up the Epstein files towards working on a healthcare plan they might be able to put one out for the first time in decades. But clearly covering up Epstein was more important to them.

I guess we know why Trump, Bondi, Patel and Mike Johnson have been covering up the Epstein files. I’m sure there is a whole lot more and a whole lot worse.

You Can’t β€œProtect Children” While Defending a Predator How much longer can Republicans pretend not to see?

New Epstein emails are out. This isn’t politicsβ€”it’s a moral test. You either stand against predators, or you defend them because they hate who you hate. There’s no middle ground left.

Accuse your opponents of what you’re doing to confuse and shore up vulnerabilities.

Feed QAnon conspiracy theorists, use them to gain more power.

Blatantly lie about Democrats, accuse them of the worst thing you can think of. Not like lying has had consequences.

Bait-and-switch as anti-LGBT.

Personally I think it’d be newsworthy if the President were a deranged psychopath. I’m not a big newspaper editor but if I saw evidence of this every day as we do now I might put someone on that story.

One of these men used violence (including chemical weapons) against his own people, arbitrary arrest, unlawful detention, enforced disappearance, and various forms of repression to control the population and built lavish palaces and monuments for himself.

The other is a picture of Saddam Hussein.

The Trump administration found $40 billion to bail out Argentina.

But Republicans are unwilling to spend a dime to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits.

The extremists will always put their billionaire donors first.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103.

12 days of work in 103 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.

If the minimum wage had kept up with inflation and productivity growth, it
would be $21 an hour today. A minimum wage of $20 an hour would remove roughly 9 million
workers from food stamps. These are facts.

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

A long-deranged and deeply depraved man with a pronouncedly and acceleratingly deteriorating mind announces that he intends to play with the large arsenal of nuclear weapons he controls.

But it's okay, because he's not seeking a third term.
