BREAKING: While you were all losing sleep over schools supposedly teaching your kids to be gay or Target selling rainbow shirts that say “pride” on them to kids, there has been another mass shooting, this time in Hollywood Florida.

Details:

- 9 people injured including children.

- Shooting took place at a beach boardwalk in Hollywood, Florida

- The shooting happened about 6:30 p.m.

Our politicians are concentrated on culture wars when they should be concentrating on more important things. PLEASE!

Republican Ralph Norman is complaining that he can't read the 99 page bill to raise the debt ceiling in 72 hours.

Meanwhile, the Trump tax scam passed by Republicans was a 500-page bill that received a vote within HOURS the same night it was presented to Congress. It was so hastily written and voted on, that it even had handwritten additions to the bill scribbled into the margins.

They should stay until they get the work done @SpeakerMcCarthy claimed to be angry when @POTUS made an official visit to Japan. #hypocrisy #disingenuous #implodingeconomy

BREAKING: Spineless Kevin McCarthy plans on sending House home for vacation without a debt deal.

More proof McCarthy clearly wants to cause an economic collapse, because he’s so desperate to blame President Biden for something.

McCarthy failed America again.

It’s pathetic that he’s owned by Trump and extreme MAGA.

[James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn]

Today House Republicans will pass a bill to retroactively charge student loan borrowers interest on their paused payments, repeal @POTUS' student loan debt relief plan, and claw back aid from public servants.

Cruelty is the point.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Still true.

[Victor Shi @Victorshi2020]

WTF. CNN just announced that the 400 people attending the Donald Trump town hall tonight will be Republicans & Republican-leaning independents. CNN is giving Trump exactly what he wants & it’s shameful. More evidence of why our media is failing us & will never learn.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Happy Monday! Here are some facts that Fox + @GOP don’t want you to know:

-7 of the 10 states most dependent on the federal govt are Red
-Blue counties equal 70% of US GDP
-Blue states equal 61% of US GDP
-Red states equal 39% of US GDP

So which party is fiscally conservative?

There is - literally - no evidence of a red wave anywhere. Any objective look at public polling right now shows the landscape favoring Dems, w/GOPers underperforming everywhere, struggling to raise money.

Strong D performance in NE special mattered. 2/

BREAKING: The Supreme Court has announced they will be issuing opinions this Monday.

That means we could have a final decision in Dobbs, the Case that should overturn Roe v. Wade, the ruling that has led to the slaughter of over 60 million innocent children since 1973.
