Why am I not surprised.
She should be removed from Congress and arrested.
Congresswoman Priya Jayapal has been relieved of her spot on the House Ways and Means Committee after Speaker Mike Johnson's office announced that she has been using the committee to illegally lobby funds for Democrats.
"Representative Jayapal regularly moves to shift taxpayer money from the private sector to companies owned by Democrats engaging in socialist practices," read a statement from Johnson. "Her continued presence on the committee is an affront to the people who elected her."
Jayapal says she'll appeal the decision.
What's your response to this......??👀
MAKE THIS GO VIRAL ON X. LET’S GO 👏

This is a quarter-turn valve, and it is nearly two thousand years old. It was buried at Pompeii in AD 79 and the bronze under the volcanic crust still shows how it worked. Inside the body sits a tapered plug with a hole bored through it.
Line the hole up with the pipe and water flows. Turn it ninety degrees and the hole sits across the flow and stops it. Turn it part way and you throttle it. The tap in a Pompeii display case and the tap in a modern hardware shop work on the same principle.
The part that impresses me is not the design but the consistency. Analyses of Roman water valves report an alloy of roughly 73 percent copper, 18 percent lead and 9 percent tin, holding steady across the empire, and Vitruvius lists ten standard sizes of lead pipe named for their circumference. Somebody wrote the specification and everyone followed it.
Where else do you see that kind of standardization before the modern era?

The UK just convicted Tommy Robinson for harassing journalists.
The same man who has spent years exposing grooming gangs, illegal migration and the failure of integration. The same man the system has targeted for over a decade.
A jury found him guilty of causing “fear of violence” after he pushed back against a Mail story that revealed his family’s location while he was abroad. He faces up to 10 years. Sentencing is 16 December.
This is what happens when you refuse to stay silent.
I stand with Tommy.

After exploring the Lewis and Clark Caverns in Montana, we went looking for a good spot to enjoy a tailgate picnic when I spotted this old section house along the Jefferson River. I love finding places like this.
The Northern Pacific built the house sometime in the early 1880s, around the same time the railroad was completing its main line through the Jefferson River Valley near Sappington in 1882–83.
Section houses were built along the tracks to accommodate the crews responsible for maintaining a particular stretch of railroad. The section foreman and his family would have lived downstairs, while the crew bunked upstairs.
Because the houses belonged to the railroad, they were usually vacated, sold, or simply left behind once a crew was no longer needed at that location.
This one stands about 80 miles east of Gold Creek, Montana, where the Northern Pacific drove the Golden Spike on September 8, 1883, completing its transcontinental line.
