Hmmm, interesting. If I remember correctly, that’s the same number as China.

I've wanted to see more of this for a long time. And I'd love to know if there is any longitudinal data that could tell us whether the public has become less informed over the years.

My gut sense here is that Rs didn't think this would become an issue, then got pot committed to a terrible precedent just so they won't admit they were wrong.

Every $1 invested in SNAP generates $1.80 in economic activity.

It’s not about the money, Trump just wants Americans to go hungry.

2nd in line to the presidency, yet consistently has no idea what’s happening in the country

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

YES!!! Arizona isn’t playing.
Mike Johnson thinks he can hold democracy hostage, but Adelita Grijalva is done waiting for permission to get to work for her constituents.

Also: RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

Swear her in you cowards.

Mike Johnson has now had the House adjourned for 74 out of the last 86 days.

They have worked 12 days in 3 months.

Epstein Shutdown.

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

Know your First Amendment

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!

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.

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.

It is sick

Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva on Mike Johnson refusing to swear her in: "The excuses depending on the day keep changing ... the timing is the fact that I am the 218th signer to the discharge petition for the Epstein files"

Weird flex for the peace prize.
