I am absolutely delighted that Jasmine Crockett is running for Senate in Texas. I think it's one of the greatest things to happen to the Republican Party in a long, long time. She is the face of the Democratic Party, she and Mamdani. Good luck with that.

The US House speaker, Mike Johnson, has developed a go-to response when asked about something controversial Donald Trump or members of his administration said or did. It's some version of I don't know anything about that. When pressed about the latest scandal from the Trump administration, Johnson, a Republican from Louisiana, frequently says he is not aware of that news including last week to reports about a US military strike on an alleged drug boat that has roiled Washington politics.

I'm a wartime speaker in a real sense, Johnson told Varney. It's not the most enjoyable job in the world, but I do love what we're doing. I love the team I work with. We have a unified Republican Party. If we didn't, Stuart, we would not have delivered on all the things we have this year. There's much more ahead of us, and this team is excited about it.

Typically, NDAA bills are finalized by the end of the calendar year, and the text of the legislation was anticipated to be finalized by Thursday. It the House in a 231-196 vote in September (only 17 Democrats agreed to pass it), Politico that Republican leaders were still trying to tie up some loose ends-such as barely passed though and the Senate passed it with more bipartisan ease during the shutdown in October in a 77-20 vote.

If Republicans can't deliver accountability and legislative fixes to arguably the biggest illegal corruption and government weaponization issue of all time, then what are we even doing,

Johnson was getting rolled by House Dems attempting to block my provision to require Congressional disclosure when the FBI opens counterintelligence investigations into presidential and federal candidates seeking office. Republicans have the House, Senate, and the White House, yet the deep state is alive and well with the Speaker getting rolled by House Dems attempting to block my provision to require Congressional disclosure when the FBI opens counterintelligence investigations into

LindellTV, election denier Mike Lindell's media company, posted to its X account and noted, Press Stunned as Speaker Johnson Walks Out Without Taking Questions. In a rare move, @SpeakerJohnson exited his Monday morning remarks without taking a single question leaving reporters stunned and scrambling down the hallway after him, continued the post, adding: According to gallery rules, the Speaker is expected to take at least one question. Johnson has never skipped Q&A before. After weeks of daily shutdown updates and follow up questions,

His chronic ignorance looks less like a habit than a strategy a way to stay in the good graces of President Donald Trump, who rewards loyalty above all. In Trump's Washington, knowledge is dangerous. Knowing too much can force you to act, make you responsible, even put you at odds with the leader who prefers fealty to fact. So Johnson has mastered a subtler art: performative ignorance. I'm not aware does more than dodge a question it signals allegiance.

Bethany laughed, said that is silly, but that yes, according to the definition of it, the protestors were certainly Antifa. Obviously, if you look at the definition of it, Antifa, anti-fascist I've spoke to a couple of veterans who said that's literally what they fought against. They are anti-fascist. So I think I should be proud to say that the people out here are Antifa, Bethany said. We don't agree with the fascist government.

CALLING ALL RESISTANCE FROGS! It's time once again to put your brainy-brain to the test with this week's edition of POP QUIZ PDX -our weekly, local, sassy-ass trivia quiz. And this week we'll be testing your knowledge on alllll the crazy stuff that happened this week, including "the inflatable resistance," blood-thirsty ICE dipshits, and why U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson is so afraid of naked people. 😂 But first! How did you do on our last quiz? Wow, you are exquisitely smart!

The people of Arizona's seventh congressional district a vast territory extending across the state's south, along the Mexican border have been denied representation in Congress for weeks. That's because Mike Johnson, the Republican House speaker, has refused to swear in Adelita Grijalva, their representative-elect, who won a special election to fill the seat vacated by her father, the late Raul Grijalva, in a landslide late last month.

Democrats have railed against Johnson for refusing to swear Grijalva in until the shutdown ends and the House returns to session, accusing him of wanting to block a vote on releasing the Jeffrey Epstein files. "You just don't want her to be on the Epstein discharge petition," Gallego told Johnson, who responded that the claim is "totally absurd" and said, "You guys are experts at red herrings and distractions."

House Speaker Mike Johnson announced the early recess of the House to avoid a vote demanding the release of more documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, accusing Democrats of political games.
