Mike Johnson is facing new threats of removal from a group of rebellious right-wing House Republicans.
It's easy to fault the founders for all the things they got wrong. Once in a while, we should note when they got something right.
A grand jury refused to charge the Ohio woman who miscarried in her bathroom.
Grand juries were added to the Fifth Amendment to check a potentially tyrannical government. (Not all states are required to use Grand Juries because Grand Juries were not incorporated through the due process clause but the idea comes from the 5th Amendment)

Chris Hayes is talking about how if Trump loses the election he has threatened 'bedlam.' Okay. What I want to know is what's the #DOJ doing today to prepare for threats to the 3 judges on the panel? What are the plans to stop them?
As @glennkirschner2 has said, to protect the judges & the community it's time for pretrial detention for #Trump.
We can anticipate this happening. We saw what happened with Judge #TanyaChutkan #JackSmith & #JudgeEngoron 's clerk.
We don't need more proof!

On January 8, Ukrainian soldier and beloved poet Maksym Kryvtsov was killed by the Russian invaders.
Maksym was one of the hundreds of Ukrainians who die every week, while Republican Speaker Mike Johnson is holding back the aid to Ukraine.
We can no longer wake up Maksym.
But Speaker Mike Johnson needs to wake the fuck up.

New studies suggest COVID variants may cause more severe disease.
Important caveat these are from studies on cells in a lab so we need to see if these observations translate in the real world.
The key takeaway is to not assume variants are becoming weaker. Evolution doesn’t work like that. It’s important to not be complacent and take precautions during this surge.
