Of course they wanna fund it through the election. Then the second they get re-elected for saving our farm! they will cut it like a badly tailored suit.
Seen this movie before.
Also, why does the military /and veterans programs/ run out first? Thought they supported the troops?
On 10/5/23, CDC figures were released showing that primary cause of death among children 1-19 in years 2020 & 2021 was firearms, factoring in homicide, suicide and unintentional events. In a two-minute vote on the House floor this morning, the office that compiled those stats was defunded.
It's easy to bitch and moan from the cheap seats, when you know that the thing is going to happen regardless of your bloviating. It's something else entirely when you personally will be -- and will be *seen* to be -- personally responsible for an utterly avoidable catastrophe.
The next one cannot happen fast enough, although I'm sure the next one will be worse. I'm not sure how, but my expectations for this sad country have become even lower than they were when Saint Ronnie was elected.
This whole thing is just damn ridiculous kicking the can down the road doesn’t solve anything when Democrats get back in charge they need to abolish the debt ceiling or raise it so high that it can’t be used as a political cudgel anymore
Is taking the House back a realistic possibility next year, or are we just gerrymandered the fuck out of existence already? Because the freedom caucus running it is like being on a subway that got hijacked by a monkey with a machine gun and a bag of speed.
Well, you know, those greedy scientists OUGHT to be starved of funds so that they don't keep telling us lies about global warming. They concocted that whole hoax together with a bunch of communists who want to raise our taxes and use their green agenda as a way of exerting social control. First they'll take away our pickup trucks, and then they'll take away our guns.
[I wish I were making this up, but this is exactly what lot of MAGA cultists believe.]
Oh these nasty people 🍗

Yep, Fuckface Von Clownstick and his clownass legal team are going for the mistrial gambit:

Mike Johnson has no skills whatsoever, but he should get one of those participation awards that are so disdained by repubs.
So if the GOP acts like it does there are two (2) chances to shut down the government next year?

So can one congresscritter initiate speaker defenestration like it was for kev?
Oh and I forgot: Always remember that "johnson" is slang for "dick"!
You're welcome!
I'll get my Social Security for another couple of months! Huzzah! Thanks, Democrats!
Congrats on the Clean Johnson bill.
