Yup, a mannequin with a rubber stamp would cost us a lot less.
Meanwhile, what do you call an asset that’s no longer an asset?
Answer: A liability.

Insightful.
Blending this idea of vertical morality with the belief that heaven can be attained by faith alone (sola fide) makes for an easily manipulated populace.

“A source confirmed to WGN-TV on Saturday afternoon that ICE agents shot and injured a woman as she allegedly attempted to run over an unknown number of agents in an area near West 40th Street and South Kedzie Avenue in Brighton Park, at around 10:45 a.m.”

1) “Allegedly”, okay maybe she was maybe she wasn’t, but
2) ICE firing rounds at a motorist in a high density urban area on a Saturday morning around 11 am. That’s a concern.

You also can’t objectively criticize what isn’t measured.

Saw this pointed out on Govtrack.us on Sept 29: Speaker Johnson is keeping the House floor closed this week, so even if the Senate passed a different version of a continuing resolution, the government would still shut down.

Constitutions and laws, without people willing and able to defend them, are just ink on paper.

Perfect!
So many times when politicians talk, what I hear is Bender saying “I can guarantee anything you want.”
