The U.S. House will be in session only 4 full days from July 24th to November 8th.
That’s 100 paid days off versus 4 full workings days plus 4 travel (half) days.
Meanwhile TRUMP says YOU have too many holidays.
Mike Johnson is adjourning Congress on September 17th, creating an obstacle for @RepThomasMassie and me to get the signatures needed for our Epstein files discharge petition.
Just because technology is everywhere doesn’t mean it belongs everywhere.
The tech industry wants us to believe that AI in early education is not only inevitable, but necessary. We don't see it that way.
This week, we announced a moratorium on all generative AI for public school students in 2K through 8th grade.
Because New Yorkers deserve to know that their kids will receive a high-quality education. They deserve to know that their children’s data won’t be mined by Big Tech. And they deserve to know that their children’s growth won’t be compromised for a corporation’s bottom line.
This is what oligarchy is:
Elon Musk, the richest man alive, plans to spend at least $100 million to help elect Republicans.
We must end this corrupt campaign finance system, get rid of Citizens United, ban super PACs and move to public funding of elections.
BREAKING: The Missouri Supreme Court smacked down Trump's blatant gerrymander.
All 7 judges, including all 5 GOP appointees, ordered the map to a referendum, protecting Rep. Cleaver's seat and netting Dems at least one safe seat.
This is a HUGE midterm boost for Dems.
Sen. Chris Murphy: "A secret payment of at least $187 million to the Trump family, and at least $31 million to the family of Trump's top Middle East adviser. Shortly after, a gift of national security secrets was given to the UAE, which every U.S. president had refused to provide until these secret payments.
This is corruption.
These are elements of bribery.
This is potentially criminal behavior. Republicans may not be willing to do anything about this corruption simply because the president is from your party. For now, Trump and his friends may get away with these crimes and corruption, but the rule of law will return.
When it does, everyone who bribed their way into government service, traded government favors for money, or violated this nation's laws will go to prison."
Thomas Massie just dropped a bombshell on the House floor.
He named 14 Epstein co-conspirators.
And he’s demanding immediate prosecutions.
“Jes Staley.”
“Leon Black.”
“Les Wexner.”
“David Copperfield.”
“Lapo Elkann.”
“Tom Pritzker.”
“Glenn Dubin.”
“Frédéric Fekkai.”
“Edoardo Teodorani.”
“Jean-Luc Brunel, conveniently dead by suicide in prison.”
“Daniel Siad, recently discovered dead in Paris.”
“Ramsey Elkholy.”
“And Prince Andrew, who committed sex crimes in the United States too.”
“And women like Lesley Groff, not a victim, who conspired with Epstein to traffic other women.”
“We’ve introduced the Epstein Files Transparency Act II to bring the fight to the state courts, accountability to the Department of Justice, and closure for survivors.”
“We want perpetrators of these crimes to be investigated and prosecuted.”

Dolly Parton figured out something too many billionaires never will: the greatest measure of wealth isn’t how extravagantly you can spend it on yourself. It’s how many lives you can change with it. She chose children over trophies. That’s a legacy money can’t buy.
It’s still Twitter.
It’s still the Kennedy Center.
It’s still Lake Ontario.
It’s still the Department of Defense.
It’s still the Gulf of Mexico.
And Donald Trump is still a pedophile.
Did Hasan Piker meet with Jared Kushner? No that was Hakeem Jeffries.
Did Hasan Piker platform Steve Bannon on his show? No that was Gavin Newsom.
Democratic leadership is unserious about stopping fascism. They know it and now with week 40 of Hasan Piker distraction, we know it
