he’s definitely not in charge of our imaginary super-agency, but he can order 2 million people fired tomorrow

they use “devisive” this way a lot too. “obama was so divisive!”. “the most devisive president in history” really? constantly talking about common goals and working together, hope, positivity, the brighter future … or is it just that he was black?

and we’d all agree that clinton getting briefings is certainly more important than the survival of our democracy, right?

Bernie has continued to be Bernie. but those you list, him, and jb pritzger have been nearly the only ones even trying to meet the moment at all

wonder if it could be related to the ongoing disintegration of the federal government or the thousands of unnecessary and illegal layoffs? food for thought at least

they just can’t stop rake-stepping. fucking masters of it

“let me be clear, though, even when we not doing that thorough review, everything we did was perfect and the best thing ever done”

please i’m begging the media to stop referring to the us postal service “losing money” every year. no one says the army “loses hundreds of billions every year” or that the FAA “lost” the amount of its budget. that’s what govt services ARE … money congress authorizes be spent to DO something

literally learned in this, my 47th year on Earth, that the album cover there features flying guitars, not flying saucers

so that's a "no" then?

natural gas processing facilities are well-known for their imperviousness to all forms of weaponry. that’s why we build our tanks and ships entirely out of oil refinery surplusage

don't hold your breath. ted cruz chairs that committee

wtf? this is nuts. where is the QR code to download the Snitch app and let the patriots know what local figures, family members, even i am doing to prevent the president from implementing his agenda?

audits, amirite?
comment in response to post
*right now* is the part where they stop smirking and pretending it was all a put-on, trolling, owning the libs ... because they won and theyre high as as a kite on it.

that was weird right? not sure ive felt that particular emotional reaction to a sporting event before

i too would like to join in this sentiment. and also to note that i have been wearing my montreal hoodie around the house all winter, which i purchased on vacation while spending good taxable dollars in montreal and also tipped well and i think got along with everyone
comment in response to post
the constitution literally says congress -- not the president -- has the power to establish Post Offices and post roads. he can't just swallow the USPS into the white house. wtf?

i think i might be ... becoming canadian? can that just happen to someone?

i keep remembering that howard dean yelled "yeah!" in a kinda funny way, and that was it for his presidential run.

mcdavid should have thought of that before he took that shot. it's on him.

people think i'm this asshole because i'm constantly showing them i'm an asshole. what gives?
comment in response to post
if they cared about the economy they’d have been biden/harris supporters! if unemployment, wages, and the stock market are your gauge … it doesn’t really get better than 2021-2024
comment in response to post
yes that is the exactly it. perhaps worse, they aren’t even embarrassed about that part of it
comment in response to post
like the boldest act of any dc dem in the Trump years was Nancy Pelosi tearing up a piece of paper. they weren’t exactly manning the barracades

the shockingly loud undertone in all these leopards eating faces posts is “and I’m white!”

You gotta meet my buddy art. he’s looking for something just like that

i am old enough to remember when they did have a supermajority, and Obama swept into office with an actual sizeable mandate ... and they still cried helplessness
comment in response to post
Tommy Tuberville shut down military promotions for TEN MONTHS by himself. Tell her to go gaslight somewhere else. Participating in the helplessness caucus is absolutely mind-bendingly stupid: it's both untrue AND bad politics.

seriously. like, if they tried to be worse at them, how would they do so?
comment in response to post
JFC these guys are USELESS. Blumenthal voted to confirm the guy TWO WEEKS ago. Publicly announcing that you regret your vote within a couple of Scaramuccis of casting it just screams "i am bad at my job" and is exactly why NONE OF US believe the Dems are up to the task here

I call this piece “Leadership!”

did at the time too
comment in response to post
this! stop giving the benefit of the doubt, being reasonable and hailing the glories of bipartisanship. these assholes are building concentration camps and purging the govt of those they deem insufficiently fascist, banning the AP and siding with putin over our allies. WAKE THE FUCK UP, DC DEMS
comment in response to post
right, because they want to cut medicaid. they’ve wanted to cut medicaid for 60 years. they aren’t subtle about it. but for some unfathomable reason, dems go along with the republican fiction that no one wants to cut medicaid. was this senator born yesterday?
comment in response to post
‘trying to do what they can”? you can’t be serious. if obama held a prime time press conference, especially if he was cagey about what the subject was, he’d get wall to wall coverage. but he hasn’t said a damn thing publicly in a month as far as i can tell
comment in response to post
as always, you’re eager to capitulate before even trying. if you don’t want to do your job resign and let someone who cares about our democracy take it
comment in response to post
two years from now we’ll be fighting each other over scraps of garbage in a work camp. wake the fuck up!!!
comment in response to post
let me try making this simpler, because i think you’re intentionally missing the point but maybe i’m overcomplicating this. where do you think the $ for EOP salaries, office space, travel, and other expenses comes from?
