I thought Mulvaney slept in late with pay day lenders on Sunday Mornings?

And since Democrats don’t read or listen to the news, they won’t have any idea that this is afoot! It’s brilliant! Since they do everything Pelosi wants, they won’t be able to come up with another idea!

It won’t take some nefarious plot from Mulvaney to scuttle the Democrat’s electoral prospects in the midterms. They’ve prove quite adept at sabotaging their prospects without any outside interference.

Isn’t this the nimrod that can not do math? As the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) he is inept. As a political strategist… need I say more?

He liked it so much he counted it twice.

Ryan ain’t going anywhere before his retirement. The anti-government ‘conservative’ needs his High-3 service calculation at the Speaker rate, which will net him a much nicer retirement than if he just had a normal Congressman’s salary.

The Republican Playbook is never original. We were able to tar and feather Hillary, and now we will do the same with Pelosi. Pelosi! Pelosi! Pelosi! Same number of syllables as Benghazi!!!

Correct. As Speaker Ryan pockets $223,500 annually. And the annual payment to a retired member is determined in part by calculating the three highest-paying consecutive years of their career - which will be three years come January or there about - resulting in a comfortable $84K annual retirement package. Not bad after twenty years in the House and three as Speaker. So, thank you Uncle Sam for … about eighteen years living on mom’s social security checks plus twenty three three years as a federal employee.

Can’t think of anyone I know retiring at forty eight.

Would it be too much to ask this witless, soulless fuck up to just shut up? We know damn well he will never "put up"where the good of America is concerned.

Ryan will parlay his career into some gig paying him millions. His government pension calculation is the least of his concerns.

With rock star status … oh Paulie, oh Paulie! Makes me wanna hurl!

Naw, a guaranteed $84K pension is nothing to sniff at. And that’s the only reasonable reason that he’s hanging around the extra few months as a lame duck, to make the magic 3 years. So clearly he’s concerned enough about it, or he would have stepped down already and made room for a successor.

Greed just takes. 84K may not seem like much when he’s looking at millions as a lobbyist, but he sure as shit won’t be giving it back. He ‘earned’ it.

Good God the man is a worm. First off, Mick, you are no longer in the House and second of all you were and still are a complete creep. Go ahead and see if it ‘matters’ that people would vote for Pelosi while you have the House commit suicide while removing a sitting Speaker because you and the other Trumpsters can see the forest for the trees.

I have a few friends, retired federal employees in the NE, with legacy pensions that make me extremely jealous. But legacy pensions are a problem for state and local budgets. But very few in my circle growing up wanted to teach (back in the day), as it didn’t pay. And another went right to work out of high school working for the city, a mechanic in the NYC subway system. His retirement package is over six figures annually plus of course full health care for family, etc. Sometimes you can get lucky.
