If Johnson had nothing to hide, those files would’ve been released immediately.

Listen… Mike Johnson can claim he never tried to stop this, but the timeline tells the truth. If he wasn’t trying to bury this petition, we wouldn’t have spent weeks begging him to do the bare minimum.
Release the files.
UPDATE: Since launching our own methane-tracking satellite earlier this year, California has helped close 10 large methane leaks in our state.
That pollution reduction is roughly the same as taking 18,000 gas-powered cars off the road for an entire year.
It’s Wall Street calling the shots while Republicans cheer them on.
Trump isn’t just weaponizing the DOJ, he’s tying it into knots so he can hide the truth behind the magic words ongoing investigation.
“Weaponizing the DOJ” takes on a whole new level when you order investigations in order to reopen it so it’s no longer closed and you can claim you can’t release information because it’s an “ongoing investigation”
The image is a photo of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein with several women.
The photo appears to have been taken at a party in the early 1990s.
The image has circulated widely online, often as part of discussions surrounding the relationships between the individuals pictured.
It’s not appropriate
The only hoax here is pretending Epstein’s crimes and connections don’t deserve sunlight.
Dodging questions like this only fuels suspicion. Americans deserve answers, especially when serious allegations are involved.
As Karoline Leavitt concludes her press briefing and walks off, @andrewfeinberg.com asks: "What was the president doing with Virginia Giuffre for hours at Epstein's house?"
She did not respond.
It’s heartbreaking that millions are going hungry while politicians argue over blame instead of fixing the problem.
Food assistance benefits were cut off in November due to the shutdown. That’s led a handful of state agencies to post messages blaming Republicans or Democrats for the shutdown on official websites. (via KCUR)
We’re in Brazil — one of the world’s great democracies, one of our biggest trading partners — and not a single person from the Trump Administration showed up.
That’s shameful.
Leadership should mean lifting people up, not grinding them down.
What kind of man works aggressively to flex his power and deny nearly 42 million Americans food benefits intended to stave off hunger just weeks before Thanksgiving?
One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power.
The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever.
But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.
Delivering results on healthcare, workers rights and accountability is how the party rebuilds trust.
Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"
These layoffs show why Democrats keep fighting for workers, unions and fair wages, not just Wall Street’s bottom line.
🚨 CNBC: "Announced corporate job cuts surging past 1 million so far this year, with 153,000 new layoffs just in October according to Challenger. That is the worst October since 2003."
I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.
I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.
But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.
The DOJ should’ve known better than to rush an indictment without solid evidence, accountability works both ways.
Just left the latest hearing in Jim Comey's criminal case. It did not go well for DOJ
The magistrate judge scolded them for an "indict first, investigate second" posture and ordered them to turn over reams of material — including all grand jury info — to Comey's team

Every win tonight is a testament to your legacy, proof that hope, decency and hard work still move this country forward.
Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.
Real reform is the only way to restore balance and faith in our democracy.
Holder: The Supreme Court is a broken institution. And it’s something that has to be part of the national conversation in ’26 and in ’28.
If there is a Democratic trifecta in 2028—and I think the possibility of that is pretty good—Supreme Court reform has to be on the table.
California has always led the fight when others stayed silent. When justice and democracy are under attack, we don’t back down, we rise up!
Newsom: They did not expect California. They did not expect all of you. They thought we were going to write an op-ed, have a candlelight vigil, maybe do a rally. They poked the bear and the bear is poking back
