Nancy Pelosi will one day have a House office building named after her.

Kevin McCarthy will have to move his belongings out of the Speaker's office - after moving them in the other day. Oops.

Hakeem Jeffries - 212
Kevin McCarthy - 202
Jim Jordan - 20

#KevinMcCarthy managed to lose by a larger margin in the third round.

House Republicans in chaos.

Remember when the Secret Service smeared Cassidy Hutchinson as a liar & swore to testify themselves?

Remember when the media helped them amplify these smears?

Well when agent Tony Ornato testified, he suddenly “couldn’t remember” anything at all

They all owe Cassidy an apology

Since when have we become a sanctuary for alleged Brazilian criminals like Jair Bolsonaro and "George Santos."

Thinking more people are going to engage with you on mainstream social media “because everyone’s there” is like thinking people at a stadium concert are there to listen to you. It‘s only true if you’re one of the ones on stage. Not so much when you’re huddled in the nosebleeds.

Forget the numbers. Forget about “going viral” (leave it to the psychopaths in Silicon Valley to make virus-like behaviour aspirational). Embrace the joy of interacting with one another on a human scale.

I just don't like you people.
We’re now far into the future and Americans still don’t have universal healthcare. Many must decide whether or not to see a doctor or purchase medicine they need. It’s a deeply fucked up situation.

Just listened to an older white coworker complain about how everyone has to be so careful about what they say nowadays because people get offended so quickly.

Second, if you don't say hateful shit, you don't have to be careful.

Just be a decent human being...it's not that fucking hard!
