You can remove it for certain types of bills. It doesn't exist for the first budget bill of the year (the BBB was passed this way) nor does it exist for appointment confirmations.

Hello whoever posted this. I am sorry your boss made you violate the law by including the last sentence. I hope when the lawsuits start flying you throw them under the bus.

China is investing heavily in renewables at a right that makes America look like idiots. Renewables are also cheaper.

I am so frustrated by Democrats tonight. The speaker of the House showed his hand and set up Democrats for an easy win. The moment Greene was removed from the chambers Democrats should have been taking turns doing the same. The story tomorrow should have been about Trump removing people now its not.

Republicans too afraid to attend their own town halls are opening up a gap for democrats (or worse! Lefists!) to swoop in and do the same. Prominent figures in the party (AOC, Bernie, Walz, Obama, who the fuck ever) should be holding town halls in deep red states. Take questions. Give Answers.

The next logical step is rent seeking to help other podcasters avoid your tariffs. Evil lies that way.

Every day the Trump administration discovers a new way to disappoint me. It is a skill onto itself.

Imagine being so disconnected from your own country that you need a team of 3 people to serve as a middle man to your own citizens.

Trump placed tariffs on Canada in 2018. They retaliated so hard we had to spend 30 billion keeping farmers from dying. We remove the tariffs by the end of 2019.

Know of any good starter kits for tech news, science news, book people, or artists sharing their stuff? Throw them my way, I want in on the goods.

I once again do not understand what you are saying though in this case it is because I can't hear the voices in our head telling you strange things. Who mentioned Islam? You don't need to say right wing Nazis, that's a bit redundant. Everyone knows Nazis were right-wing.

I am sorry you seem to be confused by my post so let me be more specific. I know too much about political science to understand what you mean when you say "left wing Nazis". In order for your statement to make sense I would need to either no know what "left wing" or what "nazi" meant. But I do.

Don't forget she was investigating Trump Universities until Trump paid her off.

I am not politically illiterate enough to understand what you mean. Most my feed is people talking about books, pets, and funny interactions they've had with people. Very for left wing people make being left wing their entire identity its just that their identity makes them left wing.

It's basically a bunch of entitled people playing house. They are playing make believe with a made up, unfunded, powerless organization so they can feel important. No different than when my 6-year-old runs her ice cream parlor and bans sprinkles just because she can. It's laughable.

I have six tattoos that are the signatures of famous people I had sign me. I always let them know that I'm getting a tattoo and they are all on my back on a sheet of paper tattoo that says "my heroes" at the top. Only nonfamous person is my mom's signature.

That's probably true. And I tend to mainly watch comedies like Taskmaster and panel shows so it's possible that in the drama sphere they are all real pricks. Closest I ever got to a British drama was Ted Lasso and that's a bit of a cheat.

This is a very American bias but like 99.9% of all British celebrities seem like they are really cool people. Like David Tenet seems like a cool hang as does everyone. Well everyone but Jeremy Clarkson who seems like a bit of a dick hole.

Are British celebs just cooler than American ones?

No one gets banned for wanting lower taxes or or stronger borders. That's just silly. Want less conservatives banned? Start kicking deplorable people out of your group instead of embracing them. Simple.

Conservatives are censored more pretty much everywhere. Mainly because most racists are conservative. As are most bigots, homophobes, pedophiles, and idiots. Conservatives aren't targeted because they are conservative they are banned for being deplorable assholes.

Need to finally upgrade mine because my programming simulators I play after I get off of my programming job don't run as smoothly as I would like.

It seems pretty obvious to anyone paying attention that Jill Stein is an unregistered Russian asset. She should be charged and processed as such.
