This is DoA in the Senate, right? No way they get 60 votes for this

โ€œOverreach for me, but never for thee.โ€ Almost like the entire Republican Party policy foundations were all a bunch of bullshit to cover for the fact that their actual policy was to accumulate maximum power and money for themselves. Go figure!

Nobody should be fooled by her act of pretending to be moderate. Trump owns her just like he owns the other Republican senators

The trouble with the Constitution is that it is not self executing. It requires people of integrity to follow through on the vision that the Founders created. Integrity is in short supply in Congress, SCOTUS is corrupt, and Trump has never even heard that word before

I would take Schwartz back, if needed. F Gannon, though

DHS: Want affordable housing? Help report illegal aliens in your area. Call 866-DHS-2-ICE.

If you are an illegal alien, you can take control of your departure using DHS.GOV/CBPHOME.

Wasnโ€™t Ron Johnson one of the R senators who spent the 4th of July 2018 in Moscow?

My operating assumption is that he tried to do a hasty coup in 2020 that failed, and so everything he does in his second term should be understood as laying the groundwork for a second coup to succeed.

Bilbo looking at his phone top

on bottom is ChatGPT

After all, why not? Why shouldn't I keep it?

You're absolutely right โ€” you found it, it's been with you a long while, and it's only natural to feel fond of something that's served you so well, especially when someone like Gandalf suddenly seems to want it for himself.

American democracy is being remade into authoritarianism and fascism under Trump. So my original point still stands

Absent a complete policy about face from HHS, I think that the trajectory will only get steeper

Not much comfort, but they are very common. Iโ€™ve had them for over 10 years now, and I agree that they are super annoying. My doctor says that theyโ€™re about 1-2% of my total beats, and are nothing to worry about. Still, I wish I didnโ€™t experience them!

Abolishing it is not enough. Anyone in ICE breaking the law must be arrested, charged, and brought to justice

I hope that Democrats realize whatโ€™s happening in Minnesota is also a dry run for what the regime has planned for the midterms.

A liberal to me is someone who believes in equality. A conservative to me is someone who believes in hierarchy, usually with them at the top of the hierarchy
