"The kangaroo is a funny animal. When attacked, it defends itself." ~ Neville Cardus "This is what I observe or expect to happen" isn't the same as "This is what I want to happen." Not even remotely close.

TACO 45 does not care how he gets it. Nor will the world remember that he got it by bullying Norway.

Note this:

"The government has now approved the outline for the release of all the hostages - the living and the dead,"

All they have accepted is that Hamas will release the hostages.

India will be fine as long as Afghanistan becomes more inimical to Pakistan.

Apple needs its tariff exemptions.

But why not ask your plumber? He clears things all the time; why not a virus?

Oh, they'll show up if TACO 45 needs the money.

Or they are going to deport immigrants that are brown. Undocumented or otherwise.

Don't ask, tell. Simply ask why are they lying about it.

Well...."can't" is...not quite as forcible.

He is not supposed to, but if he does, the Constitution does not provide any reasonable restraint or remedy.

Curious as to how it unfolds when some burns the flag.

Until it does, people wonโ€™t learn. I will stay with my answer.

Even "health insurance" as often used is really "access to health insurance."

8,000 peaceful BLM protests against George Floyd's murder. Lasted weeks, with the Gen Zers leading.

No law curbing police brutality.
Almost every PD budget increased.
7-8 red states legalized running over protestors.

History: Fascism cannot be defeated non-violently.

Half the nation is with him. So the answer is "not for a long time. Unless the stock market crashes, wiping out 401ks and pension funds."

Any specific one, or would the ghost of Henry Kissinger do?

Not when Districts 12, 15, and 16 are Republican.

I'm fine with all efforts by Democrats to keep the pressure on. I'm also careful not to confuse effort with progress. I'm beyond skeptical of Swalwell's prediction of 100 Republicans voting to release the files.

That is good news.

The bad news is that they are in custody, while not broken any laws.

Exactly. If there were 100 raring for a jail break, they could sign on now for the discharge petition.

09.10.2025 00:20 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 1    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Sorry, no.

If they actually succeed on the discharge petition, I will feel better.

Mose Johnson is busy trying to flip one of Mace, BoBo, or Gangreene. Just one, and they have only 217, even with Grijalva

He does not want to delay the vote as much as he wants to defeat it.

Which means they'll cave and agree. I mean what is their option? Not cover the Pentagon?

He needs to gerrymander the state to do something meaningfully vital for the Republic.

Watch as an executive order is announced that renames Arab numerals to AMERICAN numerals.
