By law the Republicans were required to have a budget for the new fiscal year in place on September 30th.

Anyone seen the budget? Are they are here in DC working on one?

Don't we think media, commentators should be asking Rs where their budget is? Do they intend to actually create one?

Some excellent movies to watch right now:
- How To Steal A Million
- The Pink Panther
- Trouble in Paradise
- Catch Me If You Can
- Topkapi

Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.

Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

The government shutdown is putting D.C.-area races in jeopardy Organizers of the Army Ten-Miler and the Marine Corps Marathon said the government shutdown could affect their abilities to proceed with race day.

The government shutdown is putting D.C.-area races in jeopardy as organizers grapple with whether to cancel events or unveil routes that do not go through federal land.

The president is wrong on Tylenol Scientists studying any link between the painkiller and autism have reached no firm conclusions

His suggestion that women give up pain relief in pregnancy is unlikely to go down well. Besides, failing to treat high fevers can itself pose risks to a child

It’s MAGA that is seceding, not us.

They are seceding from
- the modern world of science and fact
- from the global order America imagined and built after WWII
- from the West
- from our democracy, rule of law and Constitutional order

We are staying true to America. They are betraying it.

The Troubling Aftermath of the Charlie Kirk Assassination, Part 2: Jimmy Kimmel On Tuesday, I posted my concerns about the “cancel culture” on steroids directed at social media comments about Charlie Kirk’s murder—even posts that denounced political violence.

It’s a cult.

New rules for firearms on campus - University Department of Public Safety In order to carry a firearm on campus, a person must obtain a Concealed Carry Permit (CCP) from the state of Utah.

Re today's fatal shooting: 'Under the changes in HB 128, which went into effect on May 7, individuals who are 18 years old or older and have a current Utah concealed weapon permit (CWP) may carry a weapon on campus, including in an “open” fashion.'

You can condemn murder and political violence without whitewashing Charlie Kirk's shameful history of hate, racism, white nationalism and promotion of dangerous conspiracies that radicalized Trump supporters to violence.

You can do both.

Senators ramp up pressure on Trump to abandon threats to send troops into U.S. cities Democratic senators are filing a brief in support of California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s suit against the Trump administration.

Democratic senators are filing a brief in support of California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s suit against the Trump administration, stepping up pressure to keep the president from overriding leaders and sending National Guard troops into cities.

The U.S. Open men’s tennis final got off to a slow and confusing start on Sunday as thousands of fans were forced to wait outside Arthur Ashe Stadium because of enhanced security for President Trump’s visit. When Trump was shown on video screens, fans unleashed a loud round of mostly boos.

Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.

Getting big money out of politics.

Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages.

If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

Yes! I’m proud of my district: FCPS.

Malicious compliance: charge $1 for bail.

Interesting the many countries have their own language being most popular—Spanish in Spain; Saudi Arabia and Arabic. It makes me question the data collection. Is it tourists or foreign workers driving the trend?

Here’s what was NOT released today:

- the proffer agreement between Maxwell and the DoJ

- the agreement transferring Maxwell to club fed

- communications showing who waived Maxwell’s sex offender status allowing her transfer and possible work assignments outside prison

- the Epstein files

Ken Paxton is the most corrupt Attorney General in Texas history.

This malignant clown was impeached by his own party.

He has ZERO credibility on issues of law and order. Pipe down.

Trump openly pushing two of the largest countries in the world, Brazil and India, towards China and Russia and away from the United States. It also strengthens the global power of the BRICS alliance. Yes more 5D strategy from the idiot in chief.

Extreme MAGA Republicans have been ordered by the cult leader to gerrymander the Texas congressional map.

These corrupt sycophants cannot win a free and fair election.

So they are trying to steal it.
