Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything."

For once, I believe him.

I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

I think any story about Trump's autocracy should be mostly about the people and institutions who failed to stop it. This guy isn't a political genius, everything else just happens to be rotten. 'Toddler Consolidates Power In Household' is a story about incompetent parents, not shrewd maneuvering

ah yes another beautiful morning, time to decide if I want to be informed and frozen in panic, or willfully ignorant with a numbing background dread

Thank you, Senator Jeff Merkley, for your incredible 22-hour and 37-minute marathon speech on the Senate floor!

Which is somehow fine because most if not all of their supporters are too

Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

Whoa. Chicago mayor calls for a general strike; now we're talking

So in western Alaska, thousands of people are homeless due to flooding rains, one person is dead & two people are missing. But yet, the regime hasn't said a word, no thoughts or prayers, nothing.
Once again, they could care less about Americans, it's about enriching themselves through GREED.

The president needs your help! He's collecting diarrhea for his plane. He has a plane that's 99% toilet with other people's diarrhea in it and he wears a little crown when he drives it around. Brave patriots please send your loose stool to your favorite diarrhea president for his diarrhea plane.

So proud of everyone! The NYPD confirmed that rallies across the city have ended with no arrests. It’s getting harder and harder for Trump to sell his propaganda.

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

There is still hope for my nation. It is so beautiful and so diverse and my working class has worked so hard. I love them all immensely

My country is unrecognizable lately

Rugged individual with emphasis on privatized gains is a main pillar of fascist brainwashing

Finding out a high school teacher you liked is a fascist is hard. I really respected that mother fucker and I’m disappointed he slipped through the cracks

YouTube video by Arizona Attorney General's Office AG Mayes Demands Speaker Johnson Swear In Adelita Grijalva | The Lead with Jake Tapper CNN

Time is up. I gave Speaker Mike Johnson two days to swear in Adelita Grijalva. Arizona's 7th congressional district 813,000 Arizonans are now being taxed without representation. I have lawyers downstairs right now drafting litigation.

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that.

No phones, no staff, nothing.

I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!

Over Andrew Cuomo's more than decade in power, homelessness rose, inequality widened, public services were starved of funding, working people were priced out of this city and he resigned in disgrace.

That's the experience he won't account for tonight.

Me when I'm a healthy and normal guy

I support everyone giving vast sums of money to Andrew Cuomo. It’s the “lighting a million quid on fire” art piece but this time performed by the worst people in the world.

I urge our nation to use this weekend's No Kings marches as a declaration of independence against the tyranny and lawlessness currently running this country.

Use your voice. ACT PEACEFULLY. Protect yourself and your community.

THERE ARE NO KINGS IN THE UNITED STATES.

This is amazing...

Summer Walker and Cardi B’s voices together sound soo right

Israeli hostage, Palestinian prisoner. fascinating word choice.

The most dangerous form of government is theocracy. 

Because the only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they're on a mission from God.
