Iโ€™ve been in or around politics for over a half-century now.

A federal judge didnโ€™t โ€œstealโ€ the Commander-in-Chiefโ€™s powersโ€”she ruled that DoD exceeded the limits Congress set. That is the rule of law working as designed. What threatens the Republic isnโ€™t judicial review, but officials who insist theyโ€™re above it.

Tell Congress: Support discharge petition to force vote on ACA tax credits Contact Congress today!

Mike Johnson is big mad that we forced through a petition and forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

So letโ€™s do it again. This time to restore the ACA credits he stole from us:

November 22 - Clara Lemlich On this day in Labor History the year was 1909. That was the day that a young garment worker by the name of Clara Lemlich made a speech that would have a resounding impact on the labor movement in New York City. Lemlich was at a union meeting, where she sat listening to men discuss whether garment workers should call a general strike. Finally she asked to speak.

More Evidence Submitted to Dismiss the Charges Against Kilmar Abrego Friday night, we learned that the DOJ lied about the door being closed to Costa Rica. Mr. Abrego's lawyers feel that's enough to immediately dismiss on vindictive and selective prosecution grounds.

NEW: Mr. Abrego's lawyers believe that the lies DOJ told in the civil case warrant immediate dismissal in his criminal case. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/more-evide...

โ€žQuiet, Piggy!โ€œ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
Itโ€˜s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

Canโ€™t help wondering if the dementia is doing this or if itโ€™s some kind medication they pumped him with so he could get through both meetings? As dementia progresses, people lose their filters. His behavior was very much out of character, even for him. 2/2

He was slobbering all over MBS too, touching both repeatedly in an excessively friendly manner which I found rather bizarre as usually he avoids contact with others for fear of germs. The one exception is his stranglehold handshake. 1/2
