From the start of this month…when Massie correctly predicted that Mike Johnson would send them all home early (and Johnson said he was stupid). He was right. And now Johnson’s shaved another day off and packed up even earlier.

Massie tweet: I predicted they'd call off Congress until the election to stop our new Epstein bill.

Johnson said on TV that was "stupid" and “nonsensical."

But then he got a call from "upstairs" and canceled Congress from the middle of September until the election.

(Massie also used that early September opportunity to remind everyone of Trump’s Juneteenth 2025 post complaining about “too many non-working holidays” and how that “must change”. FFS 🤦‍♀️)

Massie tweet with image of the House calendar and Trump Juneteenth post:

The U.S. House will be in session only 4 full days from July 24th to November 8th.

That's 100 paid days off versus 4 full workings days plus 4 travel (half) days.

Meanwhile TRUMP says YOU have too many holidays.

I’m not sure I agree that case is precedent here. What happened in Dallas wasn’t just "a candidate's offer of ideas to the voter[s]"—which is what would have happened had TRUMP been on the ballot and he promised a new $5,000 policy if HE won—but telling voters they’ll be paid for voting for OTHERS.

This is an absolutely catastrophic data breach of an identity verification vendor 150+ million drivers license scans that includes photos, address, license numbers etc. It includes Pete Hegseth, security researchers, and even the deputy director of the FBI. krebsonsecurity.com/2026/09/fbi-...

A screenshot of a search result on a website titled "NEXUS | Identity Document Database" showing a locked Minnesota driver's license record for "PETER HEG******." A driver's license portrait of Peter Hegseth appears on the left, next to mostly redacted information fields, including ID number, birth date (1980), and address, followed by a prompt to purchase the full record for $100.00.

Underappreciated: US farmland *already substantially produces energy, not food*, and does so very inefficiently. Corn ethanol (~40% of all US corn) requires about 100 times more land per vehicle-mile driven than solar photovoltaics -> electric vehicles. Shifting corn to solar *would free up land*.

Their best defense against the growing challenge from the left would be simply to meet the moment and act more aggressively against Trump. If they just did that, half the energy behind DSA challenges would dissipate and they'd be safe. But no, they'd rather punch left in a panic.

Abdul El-Sayed on capitalism: “I’m capitalist who just knows about capitalism. I have a bad habit of reading, I’m so sorry.”

We’ve spoken about capitalism versus socialism.

Do you want to talk about capitalism? Let’s talk about capitalism. Are you recording? Capitalism is about leveraging the laws of supply and demand to efficiently allocate capital expenditure to maximize value. When capitalism works, it’s because you have free entry and exit into markets. So if you believe in capitalism, you have to believe in government regulation to protect markets. In fact, right now, we have exactly the opposite. You don’t have to be a socialist to believe that you should be taxing billionaires their wealth. In fact, if you are a capitalist, you should believe in that. So, I’m capitalist who just knows about capitalism. I have a bad habit of reading, I’m so sorry.

We are voting on a stock trading ban for members of Congress...

BUT Republicans added voter-ID in the legislation.

Not to get Dems to vote for voter-ID,

but to get them to vote against the stock trading ban, so they can use it in the Nov. election.

Feel like this is a pattern in public comments now. Overwhelming public opposition, but Trump administration will move ahead anyway (See also, Schedule F). This does not mean public comments are not important - far from it, it creates a case for overturning the rules in court.
