Do you believe you should be arrested, the officer involved?
They need to pick up a phone. They're saying that they're doing all this work. They are twiddling their thumbs and talking to each other. It is actually an unconscionable abdication and refusal to work.
They refuse... I've never seen people who hate working so much in my life. I mean, genuinely. They won't even pick up the phone. If I were Mike Johnson, you should be in that office negotiating with Hakeem Jeffries every damn day until we reopen this government. And any day that you don't do that is a failure. It is a failure. And until there is accountability for people who refuse to work...
to work, then we're going to continue to be in this cycle. So, you know, in the Senate, the Senate majority leader is John Thune. He should be negotiating with Chuck Schumer. President Trump should be having congressional leaders in the White House. Do you see that every day? No, you don't, because they're playing golf and they're going to Mar-a-Lago and the House and Republicans in the House have been on vacation for weeks now.
Olemme tÀÀllÀ Washingtonissa. Olemme valmiita työskennellÀ. Olemme valmiita rajoittamaan ratkaisua. Emme ole tÀÀllÀ, jotta olemme vain minun puolestani koko ajan. Mutta emme vÀlttÀmÀttÀ vÀlttÀmÀttÀ vÀlttÀmÀttÀ vÀlttÀmÀttÀ vÀlttÀmÀttÀ vÀlttÀmÀttÀ tÀyttÀÀ Amerikkalaisen terveydenhuoltoa, koska republikaanit ovat pÀÀttÀneet ottaa miljoonaa kansalaisia työttömyyttÀ.
Right now House Democrats are in Washington D.C. Senate Democrats are in Washington D.C. Even Senate Republicans, I believe, are still in Washington D.C. The only people who are not in Washington D.C. are the over 200 elected Republicans in the House of Representatives. Because Speaker of the House Mike Johnson refuses to call the House in session.
He refuse to also see Adelita Grijalva, because they want to prevent the 218th signature on release of the Epstein files as well. Can I ask you on that, because Speaker Johnson was asked about that today, and he said it has nothing to do with that, so she can have all the pomp and circumstance that is afforded to most members when they're sworn in. You don't believe that? No, Mike Johnson has sworn in several members, Republican members, in pro forma sessions. He understands that the importance
of this country, the importance of representation, is not about pomp and circumstance. And in fact, it's not just about Representative Grijalva, it's about the over 700,000 people in the state of Arizona, veterans, seniors, teachers, students,
who do not have anyone to call in an emergency because their elected representative that has been certified at municipal, state and the federal level with federal acknowledgement, he refuses to seat a duly elected official here in the House of Representatives. So we have a lot of...
which this administration is targeting in some of these infrastructure cancellations. Some of the projects that they have cancelled have been large-scale wind energy projects. And again, they think this is a democratic priority, right, because it's wind energy. But this is energy, period.
In New York State, Con Ed bills, that's our energy utility, Con Ed bills are set to go up almost another hundred dollars next year because of those cancellations. That's affecting, and it's jacking up the prices in Mike Lawler's district,
in Nicola Malliotakis' district, in Republican districts across the state. It is affecting, and they are jacking up the prices on MAGA voters too. It is killing all of us. And so while they think that sabotaging energy projects in this country, which by the way, oil and gas, much more volatile, that goes up and down all the time,
Once again, this administration is making a foolish mistake by saying that they think that investments in housing and in energy are so-called democrat priorities. Cutting the EPA as a democrat priority. You know what this country looked like before the EPA? Rivers in rural areas were on fire because of corporations poisoning.
The people who lived in those areas, poor middle class communities, getting poisoned and dumped on by corporations like Deloitte and 3M pouring chemicals into these places. And they want to call it a democratic priority.
That's why they want to eliminate the FDA. You're damn right that it's a democratic priority to keep people from getting poisoned, from identifying dangerous chemicals that are being dumped and causing cancer in people without their knowledge. You're damn right that it's a democratic priority to bring down the cost of housing.
Se on ihan oikein, ettÀ se on demokratiaalinen prioriteetti, jotta saadaan ihmisiÀ saavutettavaksi amerikkalaisen unelman. Jos he haluavat sanoa, ettÀ se on demokratiaalinen prioriteetti, he ovat oikeassa. He tarkoittavat meitÀ kaikki. MielestÀni on tÀrkeÀÀ muistaa, ettÀ nÀmÀ prioriteettit eivÀt vÀlttÀmÀttÀ ole partisaalisia.
When they talk about Republicans and their success online, they have been successful because they have also been very clear, especially digitally, about what they believe. That women are inferior. And they do not deserve equal rights. That they believe that LGBTQ Americans are subhuman. That they believe and are circulating disgusting racial,
and white supremacist messaging that they are able to get away with digitally and online. And they are able to radicalize and target and exploit a generation of young boys in particular
away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker or a different gender than them.
Ja siksi he ovat online-resonantteja, koska he sopivat kaikkein vÀhimmÀisimpiin ja huonommin osiin ihmisen luonnosta, jotta meidÀt jÀtetÀÀn yhdessÀ. Ja miksi meidÀt jÀtetÀÀn yhdessÀ? Jotta samat ihmiset, jotka omistavat niitÀ platformeja, ihmiset kuten Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Mark Zuckerberg,
