Schiff: "If a president in secret can put names on a list and kill them, then there is no war power still retained by Congress, and there's no check on an executive who may drag us into another war."

Rep. Stansbury: Government Shutdown Update
YouTube video by Rep. Melanie Stansbury Rep. Stansbury: Government Shutdown Update

I’m headed back to D.C. We’re just over 36 hours from a government shutdown, and the House GOP is nowhere to be seen. As in—literally not headed to work.

From canceling votes, to refusing to negotiate, to threats of mass firings—here’s how the GOP is pushing towards a shutdown and what it means.

What the actual fuck is Trump even talking about? He just went on Truth Social to declare the racist “Great Replacement” conspiracy is “no longer a theory.” This is the same extremist garbage that inspired the Buffalo and El Paso mass shootings. He’s recycling message-board rants like their policy,

A photo of the first page of chapter one of On Tyranny, by Timothy Snyder.  It reads, 1, Do not obey in advance, most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given.  In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked.  A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do.

We need to take Dr. Snyder's advice. He's a very well educated, thoughtful man. He's studied this subject for decades. He knows what he's talking about.

🚨 FCC Chief Brendan Carr authored the chapter about the FCC for The Heritage Foundation's Project 2025.

Does Carr agree with his Heritage Foundation colleagues? Posted July 3, 2024:

"The Second American Revolution will remain bloodless if the Left allows it to be."

I’m a Congressional Candidate. I Was Assaulted by ICE. An interview with Kat Abughazaleh, a 26-year-old Democratic House candidate in Illinois, who was violently thrown to the ground twice at a peaceful protest in Illinois on Friday morning.

As I told @newrepublic.com, "Once last week, twice today, ICE has picked me up and thrown me on the ground. Honestly, it doesn’t compare to what our neighbors who are trapped inside the Broadview processing facility are going through. They’re committing crimes against humanity there."

Blowing up boats in the Caribbean without any legal authority risks dragging the United States into another war, and provoking attacks against American citizens.

I'm getting ready to force a vote with @kaine.senate.gov to ensure Congress' power to declare war is not so easily trampled.

And *this* is why "The View" didn't mention Jimmy Kimmel being forced out in violation of the First Amendment, even though it was the biggest news of the day. The hosts' paychecks will always come before informing you.

I talked on MSNBC today about the corruption playing out at the FCC. This isn't just about Jimmy Kimmel being silenced. The FCC is planning to change the rules to allow the company that shut down Kimmel to have a monopoly-like stake in local TV ownership.

WTF! ICE agents are cosplaying as snipers now?

Protesters are clashing with ICE outside the immigration processing facility in west suburban Broadview. Agents dragged two protesters, including one pulled inside the building. A chemical agent was reportedly sprayed.
