BREAKING: Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is humiliated after the floor of Congress erupts, chanting, "Shame shame, shame!” at McCarthy after he censured Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff over his investigations into Donald Trump.
But it gets worse for McCarthy…
ABC News reports that McCarthy tried to control the outburst against him, but “the banging of his gavel could barely be heard over Democrats yelling that the move was a "disgrace" and more.
As the vote was called, Democratic Congresdman Eric Swalwell shouted at McCarthy, “It's pathetic that you're doing this. Pathetic!”
ABC reports that “Schiff was surrounded by fellow Democrats in the chamber, many of whom high-fived and embraced him as he walked towards the front,” and that “multiple Democrats screamed, “What about Santos?"

BREAKING: Democracy scores a big win as it's revealed that Trump-appointed hack Judge Aileen Cannon will not be presiding over the indicted ex-president's arraignment in the classified documents case.
The case was randomly assigned to Cannon but the arraignment will now instead be handled by Magistrate Judge Jonathan Goodman — meaning Cannon will not be given the opportunity to give special treatment to the man who gave her her job when he's arraigned.
That said, The Miami Herald reports that Cannon still has NOT been removed from the case entirely and will remain the lead judge outside of the arraignment.
If true, this is an utterly unacceptable state of affairs. Cannon has a responsibility to recuse herself from this case entirely and if she fails to do so she must be removed through legal means.
Democracy is at stake.

🚨🚨🚨BOOM: AOC DESTROYS Kevin McCarthy for the holding the national debt hostage and for suggesting Washington needs to “spend less.”
“Ok, then undo the yacht and private jet tax breaks the GOP passed for themselves,” AOC retorted.
“Why should single moms and veterans have to pay for the GOP’s giveaways to the rich?
Especially when you don’t even have the votes of your own caucus?” She added.
Let’s get this straight:
The Republicans want nothing more than to pretend that the debt ceiling needs to be lifted to accommodate next year's budget. They frame it that way relentlessly, and sad to say, lazy journalists buy into their framing. The debt ceiling needs to be raised to pay for all the spending the Republicans authorized in 2017 when they gave away a substantial chunk of the Treasury to their rich pals.
So now the time comes that we need to pay the country's bills incurred in the last several years and now coming due. But we're a little short on cash since we gave rich people more money, so now it's time for disabled and retired citizens to pungle up, and single mothers living close to the bone have to forego SNAP benefits. Because Kevin McCarthy couldn't possibly ask
mega billionaires to pay more.
The middle class should no longer carry the majority of the tax burden and the tax breaks for the rich. Let them pay their fair share for a change.
Now, McCarthy is trying to shift blame to DEMOCRATS.
We know who’s FAULT this.

This was Chicago last night. Save the excuses & rationalization. Unless you want this to be the norm in Chicago, hold them & their parents accountable.

BREAKING: AOC calls for right-wing Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to be impeached after it was revealed that for 20 years he has been accepting private jet and superyacht travel as well as luxury resort vacations from a Republican megadonor — she says the "degree of corruption is shocking" and "almost cartoonish" and says that if nothing is done this court will be remembered for: "rank corruption, erosion of democracy, and the stripping of human rights." RT TO DEMAND THAT CLARENCE THOMAS BE IMPEACHED!
Wow. This is a generation that has had enough of gun violence. But you aren’t seeing any of this on cable news today. So, let’s all take a moment & thank these young people for refusing to accept gun violence as normal. Please share far & wide.
