Althouse "[Mike Johnson] has argued that the House... has no reason to meet as long as Senate Democrats are blocking a bill to reopen the government...." ""His strategy of indefinite hiatus means that Mr. Johnson has not engaged in the typical political theater that speakers often employ during shutdown fights to jam the party out of power: scheduling tricky votes on bills to reopen parks or pay certain categories of federal workers.... Democrats had been bracing for him to do so. But instead, he has spent much of the shutdown appearing daily at news conferences at the Capitol, hammering them for refusing to fund the government and making the case that Republicans need not negotiate. He is insistent that the House has nothing to do but wait for the stalemate to end...." From "Keeping the House Absent, Johnson Marginalizes Congress and Himself/The speaker’s decision to hold the House in an indefinite hiatus during the shutdown is his latest move to diminish the role of the legislative branch — and his own post" (NYT).

HowlingMutant @Howlingmutant0, "It’s honestly too funny watching the people who called everything Nazism for years see a guy with a giant deaths head Nazi skull tattoo over his heart go “You know weirdly enough this is okay”" Quote Emma Vigeland @EmmaVigeland, "How many people get tattoos that they thought looked cool, but didn't understand the meaning of?
