Yeah, this seems like a huge unforced error.

Utterly embarrassing that this woman was a governor & still doesn’t have a grasp on public investment. Wonder if she says federal financing works like a piggy bank or household too?

All this faux-seriousness from folks who worship Trump for running the country like his casino šŸ™„

The Democratic Party needs to have a long, serious talk about what to do when Republicans refuse to obey lawful requests.

Except France, nor Canada, where you could use your French will let Americans in. I guess there’s always illegal immigration. :wink:

It is my opinion that members of the ā€œLaw & Orderā€ presidency need to become acquainted with law and order up-close and personal.

No, the Democratic Party needs to think long and hard about making ā€œlawfulā€ requests which, if honored, would undercut their position. This is a very stupid move on their part.

Why does Congress continue to do nothing about this? All I hear are worthless words. Are we trying to mimic the fecklessness of Susan Collins? The Legislature is supposed to be a co-equal branch of our Constitutional government.

You want to know what to do? You find someone in Contempt of Congress. You send out the Sergeant at Arms and the Capitol Police and arrest them. You bring them back into the Capitol building and you lock them in a fucking broom closet and you place ARMED GUARDS in the area. And you let them piss and shit in a bucket in their broom closet cell. You let them out only once they give you what you want.

The current maladministration has shown you that there is no alternative.

Hey, If we’re talking about traveling to there, I’ve got a secret backdoor - as the accompanied spouse of a Canadian, I’m allowed in (provided I endure the obligatory two week quarantine), but I was actually planning on doing a ā€œMadame Defargeā€ thing:

Let’s hope that Biden’s press secretary reminds people every single day about this sabotage in every goddamn aspect of the government. EVERY DAY. They can scream about ā€œblaming othersā€ all they want.

And let’s call it what it is: traitorous and deliberate sabotage. Do it NOW.

Oh Rudy, your brain is leaking.

My thoughts exactly. It is a good thing that that can’t finish until after Trump is gone. This would put the Biden administration in the position to stop any attempts to exclude non-citizens from the count.

If his brain is leaking, then I would also expect to hear a very noticeable hissing sound. It could be the inrush into a vacuum or the escaping gas from a pressurized air head. I’m not sure.

Yeah, I wish. As someone once said early on in his career about Fred Astaire - " Can’t Act; Slightly Bald; Can Dance a Little…" (well, except in my case for the dancing part…)

That was, I think, an MGM talent agent who spent the next 30 years kicking himself in the ass.

How about some of those clubs used on seal pups ? With votes of course.

I’m sure they’ll be just as forthcoming as the rest of Trump’s administration usually is…
