What do you think we're doing here?
In a bus, a taxi or a clear ride?
Of course, obviously.
Wow, MAGA Mike Johnson, Republican Speaker of the House, is just losing all control. He's flailing after Friday, where he adjourned the House of Representatives once again, continuing to tell the MAGA Republican Congress members, stay away from the House, stay on vacation as the government shut down. begins to hit the date which it will be the longest government shutdown in American history. Maga Mike Johnson was making his rounds on the various TV shows and media networks, and he spoke with the Wall Street Journal, and he was asked about the lawsuit filed by Democratic Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva from Arizona's 7th Congressional District against him and the sergeant at arms to swear her in so that she can function as an actual congresswoman after winning her election many, many weeks ago.
They're refusing to swear her in, and Meg and Mike Johnson saying, oh, well, that's just because the government shut down, so... We can't swear her in. Yes, you can. You've sworn other people in all the time in pro forma sessions and the government shutdown doesn't affect that. And by the way, you all caused the government shutdown. And the reason you're refusing to swear in Grijalva is because she would become the 218 signature on the Epstein discharge petition, which would then result in the release of the Epstein file. So that's one of the reasons that y'all are continuing this government shutdown. But MAGA Mike, in this interview with the Wall Street Journal, says, all right, Adelita, Bring it sister, bring it, bring it.
Bring it sister? Dude, just swear her in, you weirdo. What do you mean bring it sister? Here, play this clip.
But here's the thing, I'm following the Pelosi precedent on this. They're saying that this is some sort of like constitutional violation or something. It's a joke. The attorney general from Arizona just wants publicity. So she's lobbed onto this as well. Let me get her day in the sun. Bring it sister, okay?
Sahil Kapoor writes, Speaker Johnson is officially keeping the House in recess for another week as of Friday, with no sign of when it'll return. The House has not been in a regular session since September 19th. Highly unusual. Never has happened really before. Adelita for Arizona, Adelita Grijalva was elected on September 23rd and still hasn't been sworn in despite her repeated requests. As our editor-in-chief Ron Filipkowski writes, today Mike Johnson will keep the house adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93 days, 12 days of work in over three months with full pay and benefits. The MAGA Republicans get full pay and benefits. They did send $40 billion to Argentina and are importing Argentinian beef to screw over our
ranchers as well. They get universal health care in Argentina, by the way, as 20 million Americans will lose their health care coverage very soon.
Why is Speaker Mike Johnson being called 'MAGA Mike' and losing control amid the shutdown?
Philip Kowski writes, the Senate has been working. So this is not about the shutdown. Senate's been holding hearings. I've showed you some of those. It's about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files. And Trump wants the government shut down. Trump doesn't want the government to work. For the past six to nine months, we've effectively been in a government shutdown anyway. Now it's just official. So Maga Mike is then asked on CNN with Caitlin Collins, so if you have this healthcare plan that you're talking about, why not share it with people so the American people can know transparently what's your plan? Why don't you share what your plan is, Maga Mike? If you claim that you have a plan better than the Affordable Care Act with the subsidies,
Talk about it. Here's what Megan Mike says here.
