Um...I am pretty sure House subpoenas can just be ignored.

This maneuver is called a "Jim Jordan".

TV series need to stop making "Chef" characters. It's negatively impacting my ability to watch them.

How long before Abbott drags out an antisemitic trope to somehow assign blame.

Moon is perfect for him. There aren't any vagrants or derelicts, or POCs there for him to be scared of.

A massive regressive national sales tax imposed upon every American by a president with no constitutional authority to impose a national sales tax. The reason why the founders gave this power to Congress is because this would never pass any Congress- even this one.

It's remarkable how the Wall Street guys don't realize if they don't put the fear of god into Trump, he's going to fuck with stuff until he's done something he can't undo

The Dems at the presser are calling it Trump's Texas takeover cause that's what it is

It's all to protect him ffs

That he just sent his buddy Maxwell to a Texas prison should be part of this conversation

Please note, he's threatening to do this while actively refusing to hold a special election to fill Turner's vacant seat in the US House.

TX Dems breaking quorum...

Proud of them for doing so, but I saw this play out in WI long ago.

Eventually they get dragged home and forced to attend.

I hope this effort turns out differently.

You're speaking to me in 996.

Is it perfect, no.
Is it perfect for me, absolutely.

I met so many amazing and life changing people over there. I wouldn't be where I am now without that place and it fucking sucks that it got destroyed

If there was a Colorado Z71 or ZR2 based SUV, I would be all over it.

Something something new Cherokee...

Also 4) at least slightly luxurious interior.

3) "work truck."

My mind really was set on that stupid LC until I drove it.

I mean same could be said of the back of the wagon. The seats are just a built in divider.

As said before, just trying to figure out what I want.

1) something I don't run into in my travels daily.
2) something with enough clearance that I don't have to worry about high water days in HOU

1) lavender goes a long long way.
2) I suspect you already know, but there is a different subspecies of lavender that is "culinary" lavender as opposed to other types.

360 and on, at least they don't require engine out for major services. Biggest downside to the 355 is that a lot of servicing requires floor pan off and motor out.

PS, American friends, this is how you do dessert. Not some overly sweetened empty calorie crap from a box.

I'll be buying some of this to run at the restaurant.

He actually included a Gladiator in his recs, but I didn't love yours when I drove it. Far preferred the SwB Wrangler.

I would love to borrow a f355 (in fact, I have before). I have zero desire to own one.

That's the one I'm considering for budgetary reasons, but Z is trying to convince me that the current gen is a dramatic upgrade.

(I don't like most Toyota interiors and the seats aren't comfortable for me and my butt problems)
