No, and that's just dumb.
This one is funny!
@atrupar
Did you know Jenna Ellis was fired from her job as a traffic court attorney, but won an unemployment claim because a hearing examiner determined she was too incompetent to be fired for cause?
Not even close! Trump's skating perilously close to the line. One of those judges needs to toss him in jail for a spell. He would hate that and it might actually shut him up for awhile.
Oh dear- so sad
Trumpty has a very big mad
Joan Hussey Local Elections Matter VOTE NOW💙💙💙

Visibly angry, trump departed. Gasps elicited around the room. From various spots in the courtroom, Secret Service agents jumped up to chase him.
Older, seasoned, experienced NY CITY attorneys state they've never before witnessed court behavior like this.
Thanks! When my granddaughter chose her two kittens to adopt a couple years ago, she picked one orange floof and one pure black beauty. Her bane is Luna.
Surely they don't have to risk a dog. Isn't there a robot they can send?
Thanks. Well- so far anyway. Anywhere < $4.50. I'm will to add to trading shares. If it drops under $4.00, then I add to core position.
WTF is going on in Maine?
At least 16 dead in Lewiston, Maine shootings
From CNN’s John Miller
At least 16 people are dead in multiple shootings in Lewiston, Maine Wednesday night, according to multiple law enforcement sources.
At least 50 to 60 people are injured in the incidents, though it’s unclear how many are injured due to gunfire, the sources told CNN.

I put in a couple orders for $4.50 for AH- I see that are starting to fill,
Indeed. Time to consider "buy the dip"
Our Hockey team will do no such thing!
Good god! What happened to this, then?
Republican Leadership has announced there will be no votes in the House today. The House is expected to meet at 12:00 p.m. tomorrow, October 25.
I wish to protest the name! I love Paninis and make them quite often! None of them have ever attempted to drag me anywhere! They are always well behaved AND delicious!
I'm really not sure why being "first" matters all that much.

President Joe Biden’s name will not appear on the New Hampshire Democratic presidential primary ballot, as the state moves forward with an unsanctioned nominating contest in 2024.
In a letter to New Hampshire Democratic Party Chair Ray Buckley on Tuesday, Biden campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez wrote that “while the president wishes to participate in the Primary,” he is “obligated” to comply with the Democratic National Committee’s presidential nominating calendar. He will “refrain from submitting a Declaration of Candidacy” ahead of Friday’s filing deadline, she wrote, though he will appear on the general election ballot in November 2024.
Withholding Biden’s name from the New Hampshire ballot caps a yearlong effort by the DNC to reorder the 2024 early state lineup, in which Iowa and New Hampshire lost their influential perches atop the calendar. New Hampshire, however, is moving forward with its first-in-the-nation primary, potentially triggering more sanctions against the state from party leaders.
Top Democrats in New Hampshire are expected to lead a write-in effort on behalf of Biden.
Buckley, in a statement posted to X, said Biden “will win the NH FITN Primary in January, win renomination in Chicago and will be re-elected next November.”
Even as Biden’s name won’t appear on the ballot, another Democrat may. Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.) is expected to launch his presidential campaign on Friday morning in Concord, N.H. If he gains any traction, that could, at a minimum, result in an embarrassment for Biden there.
That situation would be really difficult to program for. If, in fact, anyone even thought to try.
Yikes! How did it do that? Homicidal Taxi?
This should be all of them.
Rep. Elise Stefanik
@RepStefanik

ABC News says that Mark Meadows has been granted immunity on the J6 case. Now on MSNBC.
They don't even have to vote for Jeffries- they can just vote "present:
Yes Emmer's out Next up:
Jake Sherman
A few sources described some problems for Mike Johnson’s potential run for speaker in a post-Emmer world: two Louisianans in leadership, he’s already in leadership (right doesn’t like this) and moderates might flinch at some of his policy preferences.
Well- now that Trump has sent out his tweet attacking Emmer:
@JakeSherman
House Republicans are minutes from convening here in Longworth for yet another closed door meeting.
Emmer’s bid for speaker is just a few hours old — but it’s on the ropes.
Will he drop here? Stay in and try to wait out the night?
Even emmer allies, supporters and insiders think his candidacy is over.
Yes. She banned Latinx from state documents and she also banned what she called "woke words"

@JakeSherman
IT'S OFFICIAL -- Roll-call vote is over. 26 House Republicans said they would vote for someone else besides Tom Emmer for speaker on the floor.
A gigantic pool of nos.
..............................................
Looks like another goat rodeo upcoming.
maybe- but since Emmer did vote to overturn the election, it's not too likely.
CNN —
In the aftermath of the 2020 election, Tom Emmer, a leading Republican candidate to be speaker of the House, baselessly said there were “questionable” practices in the 2020 presidential election.
Later, Emmer signed an amicus brief in support of a last-ditch Texas lawsuit seeking to throw out the results in key swing states.
Though he would vote to certify the results on January 6, 2021, the comments and actions show Emmer flirted with some of the same election denial rhetoric as far-right members of the Republican caucus.

4 candidates left:
1. Emmer, no. 3 House R
2. Johnson, also in GOP leadership
3. Donalds, HFC member
4. Hern, RSC chair
Interesting question, isn't it? I would have thought that he might go down with the ship, but he might not want to go to jail for the rest of his life.
NEWS: Rep. Bergman is 2nd candidate to be dropped from the GOP speaker candidate pool after getting the least votes on the the 2nd ballot, im told
With him and Sessions out, that frees up about 2 dozen votes to go elsewhere

NEWS: Rep. SESSSIONS will be dropped from the GOP speaker candidate pool after getting the least votes on the the 1st ballot, a source tells me.
(No candidate wanted to be the first out…)
I have no idea. Is there a way for them to pay someone to take the Bar exam for them?? Or bribe someone to give them a passing grade?

Not surprising. Only thing they actually know how to do is "obstruct" and not having a speaker certainly accomplishes that......................
Here's a part answer
Natalie Brand
@NatalieABrand
House Republicans will soon huddle behind closed doors for a candidate forum with the nine members running for the job. First real test will be a secret ballot vote expected tomorrow.
Definitely agree!
Might also be a disinfo campaign too............
No actual confirmation though.
