I have to stress how highly unusual it is for the most powerful military on the planet to be blowing up random boats in international waters.

I canโ€™t help but feel that several criminal charges will ultimately come from these strikes.

It makes far more sense to interdict them.

We have just over two weeks to pass Prop 50. And when we do, it will send a message of hope across the country, that change is possible if we do the work.

So, letโ€™s get to it. linktr.ee/cadem

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 79th day out of the last 91.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

The democratic senators did stall the nominations for months and vote against them - but then the republicans used the nuclear option and managed to approve everyone in a single vote.

I saw the musical Jagged Little Pill (all Alanis songs, and she was a producer), and when they got to that song - in a classroom scene - several students interrupted and explained how the instances werenโ€™t ironic. They sang it anyway, and I was glad they all had a sense of humor about it.

I wrote a nasty note on his law firmโ€™s website, for all the good it will do. I was shocked - shocked!! - to see there are no Black attorneys at the firm.

I just went to his law firmโ€™s website and posted a nasty note. I imagine they wonโ€™t care, but I had to say something.

This is so disgraceful. There are three members of the court who deserve respect. The rest are complete assholes.

I think itโ€™s possible. Thereโ€™s something strange about his relationship with his adopted teenage son when he was a single man in his 20s or 30s.

He gives $20 Billion of OUR dollars to bailout Argentina without consulting Congress or the American people. Does that seem like the actions of a KING to you?

Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious
