We need a 90.000 sq ft ballroom with a hefty price tag, but not NPR, PBS, etc.

Repubs don’t like women as evidenced by closing health centers that treat women and lack of medical research that specializes in women.

Can Johnson be tried as an accessory to a crime after the fact? He’s preventing an investigation.
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social)
Mike Johnson is complicit in the Epstein cover-up by shutting the House down to prevent a vote or bringing in Maxwell in to testify.
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
I agree with you!!
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social)
Trump and group are trying anything to distract Americans from his Epstein involvement: MLK, football teams, and now Clinton’s emails! All while he breaks laws consistently but in the open so it’s ok! 🤦🏻♀️

The classrooms come empty. Everything in it is from the teacher save one bookshelf and a filing cabinet and desks. The teachers fund it all.

They know Bove is corrupt, and has the morals of Stalin, but they will confirm him anyway. The Repubs don’t care.

Of course this administration does not like or abide by ethics.

Definitely true!

Everyone, please keep tabs on this story regarding a presidential recount set to happen.

Thank you to Russ for giving such a thought out, responsive answer.
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
No, they don’t because their base votes for them anyway. Their propaganda news tells them a different story and they believe whatever they’re told.

CLIP: “These guys have no shame.” @gavinnewsom.bsky.social reacts to Abbott using a Texas floods Special Session to slip in redistricting. (As @govbilllee did with vouchers) He tells us Cali may need to stop “playing fair”, highlights the importance of the midterms.

Not once they’re born.

This is horrific! There’s also children present.

And wait 3 days to return! Who else could give such informative, fact filled tv messages of not for him? Oh wait, we have Abbott!

Also, they need to be in an uniform. Any person can wear their current outfit and terrorize others.

While that is true, gerrymandering can have indirect effects on statewide elections, such as those for a US Senate seat like changes to election law, partisan polarization, reduced competition.
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
Texas is extremely gerrymandered. We are purple but you can’t even tell with his the lines are drawn.
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
Bondi made up quite the story. So she wants us to believe that a minute of footage is missing every night?? How convenient!

Now is exactly the time. We never do crap and then it keeps happening. Thoughts and prayers are kindling for an opportunistic fire for the next event.

With all the catastrophe in Texas, where is the senator, Ted Cruz???
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
Texas has been plagued with Republican leadership for 27 years. They can’t blame anyone but themselves.
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
So surprising given Trumps blathering about tariffs and his inane executive orders. We look like morons internationally.
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
The meteorologists predicted this and warnings went out, BUT then people weren’t in place to do anything about it.
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
However, many cannot do that. Books allow this to happen for all people regardless of their income.
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
But first we have floods and hurricane season to deal with. If only fema still existed…
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social)
Texas govt is blaming the National Weather Service for not informing them. However, warnings went out at 1,4,5am!! There were no systems in place to act on the warnings ! Plus the DOGE cuts to NOAA. Add these all up and now we have a tragedy that could have possibly been avoided.
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
No one is spared his derision. He’s a hateful, small “man”

The money is coming from fema too.

Watching and listening to Mike Johnson is beyond frustrating. His farce of religiosity is a biting reminder of how deep his hypocrisy runs.

But they got signed merch! That means more than having compassion. SMH!

Important message for those claiming to be Christian (like the Senate praying after they passed the BBB)!

This won’t happen in a red state. We like to keep them pregnant and dumb down here!

The question is… who is he more afraid of: his constituents or Trump?? We all know the answer is Trump.
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
The way she spoke to Rep Frost was demeaning, like he was a naughty child.
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
With the open vote, Trump will pressure/bribe/threaten the reps until they cave.
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
Do you think they’re scared of Trump going after them like how he did with cbs and now talking about cnn?
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
If this bill passes, Trump can cancel elections at his will, therefore, these Repubs don’t need to worry about their damage.
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social) reply parent
Worse yet… don’t be a Fetterman!

The video of a US senator being taken out and thrown to the ground for asking a question during a press conference says everything about this administration- authoritarianism!
Mel Mel (@mmidd.bsky.social)
Trump is the master of the distraction. His response to the protests has stolen the oxygen from what Musk said, his crappy Big Bill, RFK’s firings of the specialists, etc. All we hear now is about his authoritarian responses.
