A couple days ago, Mike Johnson mocked Thomas Massie for suggesting House leadership could keep Congress out to avoid the new Epstein Files Transparency Act, calling the idea “stupid” and “nonsensical.”

Now he has canceled the final two weeks of September.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

On the House floor tonight, I read the names of several Epstein coconspirators who should be investigated and prosecuted.

I also began collecting 218 signatures for the discharge petition to force a vote on Epstein Files Transparency Act II.

[Harry Sisson @harryjsisson]

Wow: Thomas Massie read the names of Epstein co-conspirators on the house floor tonight and called for their prosecution. Good!

[ᒪᗩᑎE @lanechanged]

Wow.
Just fucking WOW.

YESSSS, GIRL!! 🎯💥

ICYMI: Ashley Moody is complicit in misuse of ten million dollars meant for healthcare for low-income children, that instead ended up in a political action committee controlled by DeSantis. Moody, as Attorney General, approved the agreement authorizing the movement of this money.

A judge dismissed a lawsuit from a civilian engineer after it was determined that her report of being raped in her bed aboard a Navy transport ship was within her duties and must be treated as a worker's comp claim. (from @Rose_Lori) https://t.co/wYiyEQj1ga

In 1988 Dolly Parton pulled every 7th and 8th grader in Sevier County into a room and told them to pick a buddy.

She made them sign a contract.. if BOTH graduate, she hands you both $500. One fails, nobody gets paid.

The county dropout rate went from 35% to 6%.

She handed out the checks herself.

In 1989 she offered $500 to every kid in the county who wanted to go to the local college.

When Gatlinburg burned in 2016, she sent 900 families $1,000 a month for six months.

You've probably heard that part.

Here's the part you haven't:

The fund raised more than expected, so she showed up in May and handed every one of those families another $5,000 on top.

Then she quietly put $3 million into the recovery group that handles the years after the news trucks leave.

She built her county an entire hospital.

She played a benefit concert in 2007, Dollywood and the Stampede matched it, and LeConte Medical Center opened in 2010 with a birthing unit and a women's center in it.

In 2022 she started covering 100% of tuition, books, and fees for Dollywood employees.

Full-time, part-time, AND seasonal.

In 1991 she paid for a bald eagle sanctuary because the birds couldn't be released back into the wild, no press release.

And when Hurricane Helene came through here in Western North Carolina, she wrote a personal check for $1 million and her companies matched it.

She didn't owe North Carolina anything, but she helped us anyway.

She started the Imagination Library because her daddy couldn't read or write. Before he passed, he told her it was the most important thing she ever did.

Rest in Peace, Dolly 🇺🇸

Billionaires — in either party — should not be able to buy elections.

That is not democracy. That is a corrupt campaign finance system.

We need to end Citizens United. We need to get super PACs out of our elections. We need public funding of elections.

[ElkinsCattleCo @ElkinsCattleCo]

Beef Cattle currently cost $2000’ish for a calf at 500lbs. You have to feed it 25 lbs of hay per day for 30 months when it is ready to harvest. That’s (9,100 lbs / 900 lbs per bale, for 30 months) 304 bales total at a cost of $1,700. NO OTHER costs, I’m into the cow for $3,700 at 1400lbs full grown. I gross approx 450 lbs of meat. Thats $8.23 cents a pound., in the box.

In this equation there are:
No slaughter costs
No operating costs
No vet/transport costs
No land/property taxes/insurances
No upkeep
No diesel
No seed for the fields
No fencing
No labor, no profit for us working 365 days a year. (Yes, cows eat on holidays)
Nothing!!

For sake of argument, let’s say all these above costs are offset by selling my “premium cuts”, (which isn’t even close….BUT….lets just say for this exercise, it did.

$8.22 a pound.

Now: Please tell me how ground beef I can buy for $7-8 in the store with that retail store making a profit? They have to keep their doors open to. Let’s call it a 25% profit margin (and that’s LOW). That’s them buying ground at $5/$6.

I’ll let y’all form your own conclusions about how this is done. You CUT corners. Period, end of story. Ain’t no other way round it. Next time you buy beef, remember this very basic math and ask yourself what exactly you are putting in your body for $7-8 bucks.

Do yourself a favor and establish a relationship with your local rancher/farmer that you KNOW doesn’t cut corners AND works their brains out 365 days a year just trying to do the right thing to better their community. 🙏🥩🇺🇸

To understand why we mostly get just “Strongly worded letters” might have something to do with Hakeem Jeffries receiving $1,495,709 from AIPAC and Chuck Schumer receiving $411, 980.

Whether it’s called a dictatorship, a monarchy, or a republic,

Whether the executive is a mayor, a governor, or a president,

Regardless of what the written law says,

GOVERNMENT is always just whatever those who are governed will let those who are in office get away with.

[Rep. Ro Khanna @RepRoKhanna]

Yale researchers found we could expand Medicare to 50 for $180 billion a year.

$180 billion is less than the $250 billion increase the House just passed for the Department of War.

We literally could have healthcare over warfare.

[Maine @TheMaineWonk]

I’m old enough to remember when we used to call examples like @AbdulElSayed “The American Dream”

Michigander born to immigrants, attends UM, then Oxford on Rhodes Scholarship & Columbia for his MD.

His commencement address mentions:
“…audacity to believe we can change this world…”

[Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @AdamKinzinger]

The fact that the Democratic senators are agreeing to a continuing resolution until Dec 11th with NO compromises for them is absolute political malpractice and head scratching.

Why not even try to ban like…. The arch? Anything!
