The thing about Johnson not swearing in Grijalva is that’s it a test for 2026.

If you think they will accept an outcome they don’t like, they will just Grijalva it.

So what’s the plan when the GOP says “we ain’t leaving, fuck you, make us.”

Because that IS what they are going to say.

Trump said the US would begin testing nukes. It caught even some advisers by surprise. | CNN Politics When Chinese leader Xi Jinping inserted a reference to “twists and turns” in his relationship with President Donald Trump in the opening remarks of their summit this week, he could hardly have imagine...

So, glad we have a cease fire.

This cuts right through all the verbosity and bullshit.

This is a police state in progress. Appalling now
and getting worse.

We should make a short list, right here below.

The Republican party hasn’t respected our free&fair elections for a long while now.

See: 2020 frivolous lawsuits thrown out of court, yet persistent Big Lie conspiracy
+ now, Grijalva being refused her duly elected seat.

Feds are now gearing up to “oversee” our state elections.

Wonder why.

Why the secret about this?
Senate Repubs could - by simple majority vote -
suspend the filibuster, as it applies to the debt ceiling.
They could then pass their own CR without a single Dem vote.
Why is this fact, this FACT, going unreported day after day??

Re-state, rewrite, re-post.

That is, mixed economies with a strong capitalistic component.

Neither of these historical cases qualify as an example of communism. They were cases of a single autocrat controlling centrally planned economies. You can call a goldfish a dog, but that doesn't turn the fish into a dog. (BTW, I favor mixed economies functioning within democratic republics.)

If he can amend our Constitution, he could do it.

Otherwise, an affront.

Historically, the closing of the legislative body has never been very good for constitutional rule.

- The main motive for Republicans continuing the shutdown?

- They could get easily get their CR passed after a simple majority sponsored rules change.

Recession? When? The stock market - so detached from reality while so attached to AI - may not raise it's head to even notice. Never before has the divide between the Wall St economy & the Main Street economy been so pronounced.

No pipe dream to say, they could run the table.

Trump Administration Asserts Authority to House Migrants at All Overseas U.S. Bases

This Administration needs to be stopped from sending Migrants to Overseas U.S. Bases

You think, you think this is about the Epstein files. That may be the way it began. Dictators love to dissolve legislative bodies.

We're whistling past the graveyard when we say, MAGA will not be in power forever.

By hook, but more likely by crook, that is exactly what they intend.

And so, we look to the 26 elections, hoping not to diminish them by our words.

This isn't where we are headed, Bill. This is only a phase we're going through. It gets darker going through the ones ahead.

Historically, the closing of the legislature has never been good for constitutional rule.

So, what's to keep our gaping hole of a president from doing a re-mo on the whole DC Mall, from tearing down the Washington Monument, or demolishing the Lincoln Memorial?

Sentiment? Is it nothing but sentiment??

President Shit Dumper
That's captures it pretty well.
