We are in the second week of the Republican shutdown.
Where are House Republicans? On vacation.
Went looking around the Capitol to see if any Republicans had the common sense to come back. Featuring @mcbride.house.gov.

Itβs just nauseating seeing the rise of fascism in America. I feel sick to my stomach.

As alarmed as people may be, they aren't alarmed enough. Trump just escalated this crisis from a fight between the federal government and a state, to a situation where one state is deploying armed forces to impose its will on another state. www.thebulwark.com/p/emergency-...

I will not back down.
Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.
What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?
UNREAL there were no air traffic controllers at Burbank Airport amid the government shutdown.
Republicans would rather protect child predators & deny you healthcare than staff our airports π₯΄
πTrump shut down the government, and Mike Johnson shut down Congress, which makes it clear as hell that whatever is in the Epstein Files would wreck this lawless regime.

Most of Dem Senators did not attack Bondi yesterday as they should have. Among other things they should have said, "You're lying again, Ms. Bondi" and "That's a bald-faced lie, Ms. Bondi."
The rapid rise of authoritarianism is no place for etiquette.
Fellow Canadians - this POS is the problem - the reason tariffs are hurting Canadians
@mark-carney.bsky.social is doing everything he can to protect us. He is not weak, incompetent or a liar.

That is not a foundation of our democracy.
So the people causing the shutdown are getting paid. The people keeping the country running donβt.
And Speaker Mike Johnson wonβt let the House come back to work. So basically theyβre on a paid vacation while Americans miss paychecks.
Did I get that right?
This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent.
Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.
