Should Gaetz really be retweeting from someone named "Beavers"?

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?

Charles  Schlotter's avatar

Name one thing you want to accomplish, Kevin.

One thing.

BTW: Staying in power is not a thing.

Poor Kevin. The guy's been over his head since he was promoted to head sandwich maker at his uncle's shop in Bakersfield.

How does the GOP manage to find America's weakest, and weakest-minded human beings? Their policies to harm education and families sure helps create the voters and politicians they need.

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.

Rep. Gonzalez is using my name in vain.

Thank you SER for calling out charades as a tedious party game. Let my recovery from my teen years with my step-family begin. That is all.

One syllable:

Point with finger.

That thing. A desk... No, just this.

"This."

One syllable: Mime Lauren Boebert hoovering a dick in a public venue.

This, uh, su...? I've got it!

he could always make a deal with democrats and bully some purple state Rs into it.

Just a thought there , Kev!

You mean "govern"?

Not a Republican thing.

GrannysKnitting's avatar

well if you elect clowns you should expect a circus!

Wookiee Monster's avatar

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

Can we agree that it is not Xitter, but the Chinese pronunciation Shitter?

Nemo's avatar

I concur with all of you here. Additionally, I am training myself not to click on any links to xitter, even those I see on this here mommy blog. Don't give Lone Skum any clicks.

Way back in the 1920's Robert C. Benchley (my hero!) was reviewing a dreadful play in which the following line was actually delivered on a Broadway stage:

"Me Nubi. Nubi good girl. Nubi stay."

Benchley, normally the most forgiving of critics, stood up and said, "Me Bobby. Bobby bad boy. Bobby go."

Kevin lacks the guts to do, well, anything.

Kevin soon wet his big boy pants. Back to diapers, just like the big ones his hero wears.

Vic's avatar

Kevin's hoping Iwanka will change his diapers, too.
