Trump will be bad-mouthing Miss Lyndsey in no time flat for the ultimate act of disloyalty, dying on him just when he needs all the friends he can bully, intimidate, bribe, threaten or hoodwink into abject ass kissing. bootlicking sycophancy.

I’ll bet Susan Collins got a tad moist on Whiskey Pete’s Testosteroni Jihad

I saw the list of the 50 Rs who voted for this slop, and "Graham (R-SC)" was on it. (Even Susan Collins wasn't Very Concerned Enough yet to regenerate her spine.) Does that mean Sister of The Same Mistress has already been named and sworn in? Or did he ILLEGALLY VOTE?!?

The Missing Mitch is going to be the bigger problem. Without him, they have 52-plus-Fetterman. Murkowski's a reliable no, and TIllis and Cassidy have nothing to lose. J Danforth Vance can't break a 50-49 tie. The schadenfreude is strong with these ones.

Pedo47 started the war without consulting anyone. Let him pay for it himself.

Hegseth requires testosterone deficiency screening for service members over 30 - CBS News https://share.google/rRYBN9oqHW0RCxi5L

That seems a little unconstitutional. BTW, you're screening for testosterone? Show me on the doll where testosterone makes better military members.

Fat Donnie rules like a mafia boss. He is surrounded by minions who would literally kill their own mother if he asked them to. Crossing the Don, even as decrepit as he is, means an end to the gravy train they are riding.

Nah, they will pass some version through reconciliation along with some election interference stuff because they are all cowards and most would prefer a dictatorship anyway as long as its their dictatorship.

One of Duckworth's staffers said almost the same thing to me when I called her office. I said, "Tammy isn't going to vote yes on the NDAA is she?"

To which the staffer said, "Oh no she is not!"

Duckworth is terrific. I'm glad Durbin is retiring though, because we need some new blood in his seat.

Let's all let the Dems know we'd like more of this, please.

Just to be clear, the defense authorization act is a once every other year law, not annual. (Although considering the increasing time it takes to adopt legislation in our era, it can seem like that for sure.)

Also to be clear, members of Congress from every party want it adopted as well because without it, all of the United States armed forces that are not the Navy would cease to exist.

This is because of the foresight of our founders, who in the Constitution of the United States limit congressional authorization of the Army to no more than 2 years.

These regular scrambles at defense authorization are not bugs, but rather features of our constitutional order.

The founders didn't want a standing army.

pskbh's avatar

And look what we have now.

Herr Snackmeier's avatar

Yes, but also wanted Congress, if it decided a standing army was necessary, to at the very least require every goddam member of the House and Senate record a vote, yes or no, in every two-year session.
