It includes most of the Secure the Border Act of 2023, a wish list of immigration provisions for GOP hard-liners, with the exception of provisions requiring employers to use E-Verify to check immigration status.

That last part gives away the game on their bullshit about immigration. They don't want to stop employers from exploiting immigrant labor and never have, no matter how much hate they spew about immigrants.

There is a proposal for a bill to end all threats of a government shut-down by creating a continuing resolution anytime Oct 1st rolls around and the spending bills have not been passed. I like this idea because I'm tired of these hostage takings by Republicans.

I have it! The perfect solution!

Just re-name Kevin's office to "Squeaker of the House" and remove all of his powers.

He's already 90% there, amIright?

The Speaker Who Wasn’t There: a poem.

I knew a Chair who wasn’t there.

He wasn’t there again today.

Oh, I wish he’d go away.

I knew a Chair who didn’t care.

He didn’t care to govern there.

With MAGA threats he wouldn’t dare.

I knew a Chair who wasn’t there.

I saw him on the Congress stair.

About his job he doesn’t care.

Oh, I wish he wasn’t there.

Poor Kevin, thinks that the politics he learned in Bakersfield could carry him as Speaker of the House. Bakersfield taught him never to play with Democrats, and now he can't see the Democratic caucus as the solution to his problems from the far right.

Republicans can’t and won’t govern responsibility. All they’re capable of doing is making noise and flinging shit.
