  12. In #solidarity with poor, #dimwitted Alina Habba, I have decided to hereby #resign from my positions as U.S. Secretary of State, Vice President of the #USA, senator for the great State of Vermont, Congressman for the district of Idiot, TX, dogcatcher in Boise, Idaho, and designated shit sweeper for the unincorporated shithole of Mar-a-lago, FL.

    I thank you for the opportunity to #serve in these roles.

  13. Could every single #Republican #Congressman and #Senator be a pedophile?
    Many people are saying it's true! The best researchers in the world might agree that it's true!

  14. Herr #Drumpf hopes that #Democrats will quckly cave over #OMB threats to terminate #federalworkers if they don't vote to support #GOP budget...

    While I know not how threats are playing out across Congressionalandia, at least the #Maryland delegation seems not to be buying into it, with Sen. Chris Van Hollen calling the mass potential layoffs “likely illegal”

    Dem MD #Congressman #JamieRaskin Issued Statement on #DJT Administration's #Threat to CONTIINUE His Mass Firings of Federal Workers :

    “After illegally sacking tens of thousands of federal workers, Drumpf’s now trying to use the livelihoods of the ones who remain as coercive leverage while refusing to come to the table and hold serious #government funding negotiations with Democratic leadership. "

    #DJT has spent his time in office dismantling the federal civil service and destroying the critical programs that #Americans rely on. His lawyers should tell him that a #shutdown gives the administration no additional legal authority to justify the #lawless dismissal of federal #workers. "

    “Democrats won’t be intimidated into supporting #MAGA’s #government funding proposal which does nothing to protect the #HealthCare millions of Americans need."

    #Senate #MinorityLeader Chuck Schumer of #NY also commented “#DJT has been firing federal workers since day one—not to govern, but to scare … This is nothing new and has nothing to do with #funding the government. These unnecessary firings will either be overturned in court or the administration will end up hiring the workers back, just like they did as recently as today.”

  15. #SAVE #Act || I wrote to my #Congressman, Nick #LaLota, about the act. He said: "Some claim #voter #ID laws are designed to suppress turnout or #disenfranchise certain communities. Voter ID laws are not about #exclusion—they are about #safeguarding #elections." He's lying, so I replied: … (1/4)

  16. Freshman Congressman tells constituent he is powerless to stop Musk's budget cuts
    popular.info/p/freshman-congre

    "Begich said he was "not in a position to approve or deny the cuts."

    It was a remarkable statement from the freshman #Congressman, sworn into office in January. The #Constitution vests the "power of the purse" with #Congress — not an unelected billionaire appointed to a position in the executive branch."

  17. Thank you #Congressman #AlGreen:

    "#Texas representative filing #impeachment articles against #Trump over #Gaza plan

    Al Green, a #Democrat, says Trump proposal to ‘take over Gaza’ is a ‘dastardly deed’ amounting to #ethniccleansing"

    It's somewhat fruitless with the current party split in the House (always vote people, every little bit helps) but the real problem would be saying nothing

    You fight

    You always fight

    Forever

    You never give in

    Al Green gets it

  18. A cheap, non-obvious, D.C.-adjacency-required way to get a quality American flag

    The American flag we’d bought in the summer of 2021 had faded and then developed a tear at one corner, so it was time to buy a replacement. That’s been a task that’s come due every three to four years over our two decades and counting of home ownership–the Stars and Stripes are not forever when subjected to mid-Atlantic weather–but this time I wanted to research my options instead of throwing still more money at Amazon.

    At some point, probably in the middle of work-related clicking around, that shopping research led me to my congressman’s Web site. Rep. Don Beyer (D.-Va.), like other members of Congress, has a flag-request form that I’d thought of only as a way to buy a flag flown over the Capitol. But on actually eyeballing that form, I realized that I could buy an unflown, 3-by-5-foot cotton flag for just $15… at a mandatory shipping cost of $10.75.

    Paying that much for shipping bothered me when I can get to and from the Capitol for $6 and change via Metro, less if I use Capital Bikeshare on the way there. Fortunately, the legislative branch of the U.S. has two houses, so I checked the site of Sen. Tim Kaine (D.-Va.) and saw that I could buy the same flag at the same $15 price and pick it up for free. Sold!

    (Sen. Mark Warner, D.-Va., also offers free flag pickup; I’m not aware of complaints about Rep. Beyer’s constituent service, so maybe this is a site-template issue on the House side?)

    Three business days later, I got an e-mail from a staff assistant for Sen. Kaine saying the flag was ready for pickup at his office in the Russell Senate Office Building. I stopped by Tuesday evening on the way to an event in Navy Yard, appreciating the Russell Building’s handsome Beaux-Arts architecture, then attached our reasonably-priced purchase to the flagpole on our front porch Wednesday morning.

    Sometime that afternoon or evening, a gust of wind put enough strain to crack a plastic bracket on one of the flagpole rings that had helped secure the flag, leaving it clumsily draped over the shrubbery below the pole. I am fixing that problem by ordering two new rings–which means I’m throwing still more money at Amazon.

  21. #USA NOW.
    NEWS FLASH!

    From today, the titles of, #Senator, #Congressman and #Congresswoman are being retired in favour of the more modern and descriptive terms of #BAGMEN and #BAGWOMEN.

  22. A #GOP #Congressman #Tweeted A #ShadyVance #Image That Must Be Seen To Be Believed. Vance in Collins’ photo was edited to have a sharper jawline and an ever-so-slight bronze in his facial hair.

    Rep. #MikeCollins earned major #mockery for his Wednesday morning #post
