Just count the money, Steve. Thatâs your job, and you have enough trouble with that.
Oh oh ⌠someone didnât memorize the training materials.
Repeat after me, Steve:
"They went to public school in a state where anyone can get an AR-15 thanks to the Second Amendment. They knew what they were signing up for. They knew what they were signing up for. They knew⌠"
Wouldnât it be nice if we could actually believe there was any sincerity to this administrative functionâs words? As far as I can tell, this is a bullshit ploy to make it sound like some republicans are aware that human beings have died and other human beings care about that. Thank you, Mr. Sociopath, for mimicking human concern.
âSo do you have anything?â Lewis asked.
No John he doesnât.
He sure the fuck does. A treasury secretary that can say shit like this: âIâm not aware of that level of detail in the budget for me to be the expert to attest on that,â Mnuchin began.
And no one bats an eye.
âSure Iâm Treasury Secretary, but I canât be expected to actually read things that are pertinent to my position.â
The ONLY thing pertinent to his position, actually.
Haha. I read that and immediately heard the Scarecrow singing: If I only had a braaaiiiinnn.
Steve is going to get his pee pee spanked because he did not clear his utterances with the NRA. We will hear from Steve again after he has been sufficiently chastised by âLyingâ LaPierre and company.
âI urge Congress to look at these issuesâ ⌠and then do nothing about them.
âI will say, personally, I think the gun violenceâ Itâs a tragedy what weâve seen yesterday, and I urge Congress to look at these issues,â Mnuchin said.
But these issues are not in his lane. WTF
What we have here is word salad made with some very expensive ingredients
You donât have to actually DO anything but if you LOOK at it, voters will think you care.
Wow, strong words of overwhelming power! Iâm blown away!
ATF, that is Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives is within the Treasury Dept., maybe heâd have some sway over how firearms are used and by whomâŚ
âWe might have a few bucks for a couple of âSee something, Say somethingâ public service announcements, but Iâll have to check the numbers and make sure that wonât drive down gun sales.â
Yeah, but if he canât even read the budget, even before being expected to testify about it, how can he be expected to know whatall falls under the umbrella of his department?
âWhat? Iâs supposed to KNOW shit?!?! Aw maaaaaannnnnnn.â
Mnuchin: Do it for me.
He must keep his Treasury Dept userâs manual in the pocket on the back of the passenger seat in his car like I do which is pretty much not accessible in the case of an emergency. .
You almost got it right, but this is Mnuchin so it should be:
âI Urge Congress To Look At These Issuesâ - and cut funding to anything that might be helpful in any way.
I guess Mnuchin says something, because he never had to stand in an election ?
The rest of the guys canât really jeopardize those NRA funds, so he was elected to take one for the team.
Scalise havenât said anything ?
Scalise when he finally came to work after being wounded and having to use crutches said MOAR GUNZ h/t @katscherger
