CARTOON OF THE DAY

(From @deadder.bsky.social )

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

I believe this is why Gerrymandering is much more common in Red states than Blue states.

If you give people equal political power it would be difficult for GOP to retain its power.

😂

Does it not seem like anywhere fascist movements are increasing in power there are rich people trying to get richer?

The next big tax evasion trick to hobble is borrowing on the value of stock options. Put an upper cap where anything over the cap ($1M?) is considered a source of income?

Is the show’s name being changed from 60 Minutes to 60 Cover Ups?

I don't resent poor people who use food stamps to buy another soft drink.

I resent rich people who take away the funds for food stamps to buy another yacht.

A true Big Brother moment- don’t believe what you are seeing with your own eyes

Anyone have corroboration on this with local news reporting? Don’t see anything with a quick google search - this is course could be by design. Control narrative and media is a cornerstone of fascism.

Inconceivable!

Imagine the horror of being paid $50B and being forced to live on just $15B?

What would happen to the luxury yacht & billionaire bunker industries?

All those private islands remaining unsold…

I thought Halloween was over?

BTW which oligarch ever paid the full tax rate, ever? Deductions?

Time to put a new tax structure in place because the game is crooked.

Will the Dems have the courage to break the velvet cuffs of oligarch money and renew America’s democracy to “one person, one vote” from “one dollar, one vote”?

The GOP has already been taken over by venture capitalists.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103.

12 days of work in 103 days.

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.

How you say things can actually go against your goals.

No Kings in Oct. was the perfect antidote to the poison being spread from the Right. No violence from the protesters & much more love of country than hate of Trump confounded their narrative.

Release the Epstein files

youtu.be/kJgRjwhbVuI?...

Seth Meyers goes on and on… said the man still whining about the 2020 election.

Just another day of cover up and distraction from the Epstein Files.

When will GOP Congressmen start to turn on Mike Johnson? Swear in Grijalva already!

Release the Epstein Files!

I guess he thinks Christians will ignore his involvement with the Epstein sex trafficking and rape ring if he drops some bombs in the name of protecting Christians?

He shut the government down for a month to hide files establishing the extent of his fraternization with the most infamous serial child rapist of the last century, and now he is threatening to invade Nigeria to protect members of a religion he pretends to practice but has never actually belonged to

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

Imagine if @govbilllee cared as much as this NC5 reporter does

#BillLeesHungerGames

He made sure from the beginning that the 25th amendment could not be used against him.

It requires the VP and the Cabinet to agree to unseat him. He filled that with loyalists who wouldn't want or dare to challenge him.

😂 😂 😂

Halloween gravestone reading “I Did My Own Research” in a yard with two skeleton arms sticking out of the grass.

Happy Halloween

Adelita Grijalva now holds the record for longest delay between winng a special Congressional election and being sworn into office.

Why the delay from Mike Johnson?

Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

Video: Solid Gold Toilet Heads to Auction A toilet made from about 220 pounds of solid gold is expected to go up for auction in November. Bidding for the fully functional piece by the artist Maurizio Cattelan is expected to start at about $10...

There is a solid gold toilet is going up for auction according to a NYT

Which billionaire is going to buy it for Trump?

Holy Museum Heist Batman! Not only is HCR making some great points about the latest blunders of the Trump Regime, but where are the artifacts, artworks & historical elements from the demolished East Wing? Did Melania or one of his offspring grifters show up with a van?

youtu.be/ep4LH6KKJE8?...

How many voters in Louisiana are ready to educate him through electoral defeat in ‘26? Are culture war issues like trans athletes and drag queen story hours still a defining concern for them?

Johnson basically says it here

Sounds like the Liberals are trying to steal the wind from the sails of Maple MAGA.

BTW want to cut down on Auto Theft? Impose a modern standard for theft deterrence. Being able to re-program the car via OBD2 port / clone a key signal is ridiculous.

Banning the Flipper Zero was theatre.
