Bethany laughed, said that is silly, but that yes, according to the definition of it, the protestors were certainly Antifa. Obviously, if you look at the definition of it, Antifa, anti-fascist I've spoke to a couple of veterans who said that's literally what they fought against. They are anti-fascist. So I think I should be proud to say that the people out here are Antifa, Bethany said. We don't agree with the fascist government.

CALLING ALL RESISTANCE FROGS! It's time once again to put your brainy-brain to the test with this week's edition of POP QUIZ PDX -our weekly, local, sassy-ass trivia quiz. And this week we'll be testing your knowledge on alllll the crazy stuff that happened this week, including "the inflatable resistance," blood-thirsty ICE dipshits, and why U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson is so afraid of naked people. 😂 But first! How did you do on our last quiz? Wow, you are exquisitely smart!

The people of Arizona's seventh congressional district a vast territory extending across the state's south, along the Mexican border have been denied representation in Congress for weeks. That's because Mike Johnson, the Republican House speaker, has refused to swear in Adelita Grijalva, their representative-elect, who won a special election to fill the seat vacated by her father, the late Raul Grijalva, in a landslide late last month.

Democrats have railed against Johnson for refusing to swear Grijalva in until the shutdown ends and the House returns to session, accusing him of wanting to block a vote on releasing the Jeffrey Epstein files. "You just don't want her to be on the Epstein discharge petition," Gallego told Johnson, who responded that the claim is "totally absurd" and said, "You guys are experts at red herrings and distractions."

House Speaker Mike Johnson announced the early recess of the House to avoid a vote demanding the release of more documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, accusing Democrats of political games.

I'm as anxious to see how that plays out as you are. I will tell you that the sentiment here, certainly my opinion is that we should reduce interest rates. The American economy is hot, and we have so many good things going on.

On balance, my view is we probably should [ban stock trading] because I think it's been abused in the past.

Mike Johnson noted that the notion of banning stock trading by Congress members has been a topic for some time, highlighting the lack of consensus that has historically stalled its progress.

A lot of them text. That's our main means of communication.
