Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

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.

10th boat blown up in the Caribbean.

6 people dead this time.

Not a single arrest made.

Not an ounce recovered.

Not a shred of evidence provided.

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

The so-called peace President has doubled the government expenditure for pepperballs and non-lethal rounds to be used against Americans exercising their First Amendment Rights.

We have (so many) questions. Is this part of a quid pro quo? Will the Qataris have their own facilities and security inside one of our bases? This needs some VERY serious oversight, if Republicans in Congress feel like doing their jobs at any point.

Trumpnomics: Get tariff money from US consumers on Chinese goods. Our farmers can’t sell their products because the Chinese refuse to pay our tariffs. China buys from farmers in Argentina instead. We send Argentina $20 billion. Then we pay our farmers to throw their crops away.

It says a lot that Trump can find $20 billion to bail out Argentina, but won't help the millions of Americans who are in real need at home.

Thank you to former CFPB Director Rohit Chopra for explaining.

Republicans control the White House, Senate, and House.

This government shutdown is on them.

Trump and Republicans spread lies and scapegoat immigrants to distract you from how they are picking your pockets.

Do not be fooled.

OTD in 2015 Russia began bombing Syria.
-we denied we'd do it
-we then did it
-we bombed lots of hospitals, shopping centers & schools to create refugees
-we said it would be WW3 if NATO got involved
-when NATO helped throw us out we just ran away

Sound familiar?
