He is also unbalanced, mentally…which will become more and more apparent…as his minions contort themselves in defending him.
THAT has been the greatest “magic” act of the 21st Century.

WTF is Rump’s problem trashing GQP who aren’t up for reelection. Start savaging Ron Johnson instead. Blistering incompetence is the highest form of disloyalty, makes him look foolish by association.

Congress needs to spend more money on dealing with Climate Change. Helping families with children won’t mean a damm thing if the ecosystem is collapsing around them. Here in the Western States we know Climate Change from all the smoke and droughts. It’s Now or never.

Passed 69-30, enough to override Biden’s veto. 
The 69-30 vote follows weeks of turbulent private talks and fierce public debates that sometimes teetered on collapse, as the White House labored alongside Democrats and Republicans to achieve the sort of deal that had eluded them for years.

Truth. Unless some form of Voting Right s Act is passed, we’re screwed.

Why can’t it be implemented before the 2022 elections? Why can’t the Democratic congress fund the bill before the elections?

a total 32 cabal owned buildings
I just noticed that the rod of God is going to smite cabal owned buildings.
With that warning, I’m sure the cabal will just meet somewhere else for a few days, until after the smiting. Renting a conference room in the Marriott isn’t very expensive. After the smiting, they can rebuild.
I’m thinking the cabal will be fine.

That was the longest “Infrastructure Week” in history.
But we should all thank TFG for making it all possible!!

The UN climate report has nicely dovetailed into the big boy infrastructure bill. Gops, known for too little, too late, are faced with letting the planet fall apart or pissing off the petro-chemical donors. They are going to have to put their names to it.

As stated above, it isn’t paid for yet and DitchMoscowMitch has already guaranteed no money will pass with GQP assistance.

Yep. The country simply cannot survive another couple decades of minority rule from a frightened angry resentful white Christian nationalist minority of the population whose sole goal in achieving power is to then use it to perpetuate their minority rule.

OT—but typical.
Bill Hemmer at FoxNews said on air that Karl Marx wrote “Mein Kampf.”
So I guess that means that Adolf Schickelgruber wrote “Das Kapital.”

OK. Fair question. Too much assumption on my part that most people don’t have real lives— and have spent their professional lives inside the Beltway. So, maybe this will help:
First, real money only comes in appropriations bills. By terms of the constitution, appropriations bills must be House bills first and pass the House first. Big D and Bipartisan are Senate bills, not House bills. These two Senate bills “authorize” appropriations; they do not “appropriate” any money. They do set “appropriation goals” for FY2021 and FY2022, which I assume will be passed through separate House appropriations bills, because the Democrats control the House. I assume further that the Democratic Senate will adopt these House appropriations bills. But what happens thereafter depends 9n who controls Congress thereafter.
Second, while the Constitution does not prohibit multi-year appropriations, I don’t think that has ever been done in our entire history. Neither of these two Senate bills even tries to do that. And there is no way that it would ever pass in either House.
Third, no Congress can bind a later Congress. So, if the Republicans take the mid-terms, they will almost certainly just not pass appropriations bills with the amounts contemplated by Big D and Bipartisan. Biden may be able to negotiate some additional funds, especially for Bipartisan, but money for most of Big D— no way.

This is the reason you put enough to get visible projects started in most congressional districts, even those of the assh*les who vote against you. Perhaps especially them.
