Riot Path

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.

Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

I don’t think they realize that they will suffer along with the rest of us.

The "Antifa" everywhere stuff is really worse than McCarthyism. It's witch trial shit except they can't even find a judge to sanctify it.

Release the Epstein Files.

Jonathan Rinderknecht, a white man, was charged with starting the Palisades Fire. But on X, the company's news summary tab shows a photo of a black man.

Imagine knowing – being absolutely sure – that when you die, 65 or 70% of the country and the world will celebrate your death like nothing they've ever celebrated anything before.

Today's arrest of 29-year-old Florida resident Jonathan Rinderknecht marks an important step toward determining how the horrific #PalisadesFire started and bringing closure to the thousands of survivors whose lives were upended.

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

Zohran sits on a bus talking to a rider sitting behind him.

I'm on the slowest bus line in the city with the slowest buses in the nation to talk to New Yorkers about what it would mean for their lives if we made them fast and free.

BREAKING

In a new video, Dolly Parton, the Queen of America, says she’s going to be ok.

Portland has elevated protesting to an art form.

Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

It’s nice to have an unofficial “Chief of Staff” who likes to travel everywhere with you to provide advice and counsel. bsky.app/profile/patr...

Murray: I talked to a family that’s paying about $300 a month for their health insurance. It’s going to jump to over $1,800 per month.

Many people will turn away and not pay for it—obviously, they’ll lose their health insurance. The fewer people who have insurance, the more everybody pays.

Justice Dept has 10 days left to respond to civil lawsuit filed by Jan 6 police responders who are seeking court order to require display of Jan 6 law enforcement honorary plaque at US Capitol

Plaque was required to be hung by 2023 under federal law

It hasn’t been hung

All these headlines saying “Bondi Goes on the Attack.” Really? She wasn’t in the octagon, she’s a public servant who was at an oversight hearing. Her job was to answer questions. She refused to do her job. Stop glamorizing and whitewashing this moronic, performative bullshit.

Why isn't Pam Bondi releasing the Epstein Files?

Over 80% of Americans want them released. Its the only thing that a majority of this country agrees on.

"Eventually you are going to have to answer for your conduct in this. You won't do it today, but eventually you will." - Sen. Dick Durbin to Pam Bondi

This is so dark

Pentagon chief Hegseth more interested in pushups than talking with Illinois leaders, Pritzker says The governor said the Trump administration is keeping him in the dark about immigration enforcement and National Guard deployments.

Pete Hegseth was busy ignoring his job and doing pushups as part of a show for the Guinness Book of World Records while Illinoisans are being invaded by Trump’s military troops.

California just signed a new trade partnership with Belgium.

We're committed to expanding economic and clean energy innovation — because California will always be a stable, reliable partner on the world stage.

ICE is made up of men who have failed the human test and have nothing of value to offer this nation.

Adults with decency and options and possibilities don’t do this shit.

There it is

I Refuse to Stay Silent. Will You? Read more here.

I refuse to let hopelessness prevail. This may just be one essay, by a lawyer few have heard of, in a newsletter read by a fraction of the public. But I will not stay silent.

Whoa! The shutdown’s ripple effect starting to hit.

Burbank Airport in LA County has no air traffic controllers on duty due to sick calls, last-minute day-off requests, and staffing shortages.

If you’re flying anywhere in the country, check for delays.

I'm so sick of the casualness of their constant lying.

Don’t worry, Mitch McConnell, we haven’t forgotten that most of this is your fault.

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words.

The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.
