Sorry been meming to respond, but the whole thing to me is joke including her testimony. While I do think Bigly bears some responsibility for what happened that day…as I posted before, previously the FBI (who we know from convictions and inappropriate actions & behavior, no friends of trump admin) investigated as well as the DOJ has reviewed actions and info..said no ties and Trumps actions didn’t rise to criminal level.

I still would like to know why the request for national guard was rejected by the house, senate that day.

Which ones? The Republican party is split. A plurality support Trump before any other consideration or value. Others value different things.

Re: Political Memes
 

I just don't get being against these issues, is it really just party over the people? If so it's really sad and pathetic. Worse yet is people will still vote for these idiots who don't support their best interests.

Re: Political Memes
 

I think it's a tad short-sided to assume 'Republicans don't support anything'. There are fair arguments against almost all of those bills, and some of those topics have other Republican written bills or bipartisan bills that aim to accomplish the same things. I don't think it's a new precedent for politicians to vote against bills that are not in-line with their core beliefs. It happens in every Congress - one party tries to shove their agenda down America's throat, and the other party isn't having it...ultimately they work out their differences or one party gets their way.


Oil & Gas Price gouging - This is basically unenforceable in my opinion due to the basic principles of supply and demand, and it's not the job of the government to police the market. Tell me you wouldn't go a few miles away to pay $5 per gallon if your neighborhood gas station was charging $6... We consumers can police the market just fine on our own.

Lowering costs of insulin - Government price fixing never works and never has worked. Imposing federal control over the market is basically socializing our economy. There were apparently multiple bipartisan bills in the works for this. No need to pursue one party's agenda over those that have bipartisan support.

Veterans benefits - Republicans who voted in opposition argued that the $300 billion price tag over 10 years would add too much to the country’s deficit and exacerbate backlogs at VA. They are not wrong.

$28 Million for baby formula shortage - The legislation was largely seen as Democrats covering up for the administration's ineptitude during the crisis and basically throwing money at the FDA rather than fixing the actual problem.

Active shooter alert system - I don't see a big problem with this one. Anyway, 43 Republican votes is fairly bipartisan these days. It's a bit redundant though as we already have alert systems such as IPAWS. Maybe they could have figured out a way to piggyback on that system for the bill's intended purposes.

Reporting white supremacists in the military and law enforcement - It sounds like Republicans thought this was an attempt to create a problem where no problem exists. I don't have all the facts, but if they have evidence that it's a problem, then it should be dealt with. Maybe even go a step further and apply the reporting requirement to all hate-related crime incidents/situations.

1) Prices were going up under trump
2)Same as #1 and again you were schooled Biden's trip was NOT all about Oil but lie to make yourself feel better.
3)Baby Formula ? Seriously , you can't be this stupid. Out of only three producers one was shut down becuase of sanitation but I get it you're an idiot.
4)All started going up under trump....keep denying it.
5)LOL,no proof of your claims , republican BS.
6)LOL, so none of those polices during the pandemic were introduces under trump and the republicans, none???STFU!
7)Yeah tell the people in Uvalde. Look at who was attacking the Capital Police on Jan 6th? wasn't Dems.
8)LOL, blaming the War on Biden yet you still ignored that trump withheld aid to Ukraine. Funny thing is almost all agree Biden has handled the war well, except idiots like you.
9) Please give me the name of anyone person who has single handedly stopped a pandemic? I'll wait?
10)You do realize that republicans had a similar plan but again as you always do screw facts . STFU.

I feel pretty caught up actually, thanks.

My favorite line in that article:

"Democrats, of course, needed no reminders of the limits of their power."

So their bare majority is no majority at all for the next couple months... Ok, so compromise (that goes for both sides). Our differences aren't that great when it comes to most things. It shouldn't be all or nothing all the time.

Huh. Are we against bone-sawing US residents on foreign soil now? I feel like certain people here (and one former US president) were suspiciously silent when it happened.

Actually I'm not giving Trump enough credit, [URL="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2018/11/20/trumps-full-statement-giving-saudi-royal-family-pass-jamal-khashoggi-annotated/"]here are his exact words on the subject[/URL].

Paraphrasing here - let's make it short. "The 17 Saudis who did the terrible crime will be punished - but we'll never know if it was sanctioned by the highest levels of the Saudi government. They have denied involvement, and that's good enough for me. Our lying sack of shit intelligence community can believe whatever they want - I trust my friend MBS."

[quote=President Donald Jay Herbert Comacho Mountain Dew Trump]
After the United States, Saudi Arabia is the largest oil producing nation in the world. They have worked closely with us and have been very responsive to my requests to keeping oil prices at reasonable levels — so important for the world.
[/quote]

Based upon the aforementioned quote, it seems what he is saying is "low oil prices are more important than a US resident getting bone-sawed on foreign soil." To his credit, it seems Biden doesn't disagree even though we aren't getting the same luxury of low oil prices.

My favorite thing was the G1 response to the list of Biden failures…he acts like we can’t actually look up the data to see all time fentanyl deaths and seizures of fentanyl..or record number of illegals crossing the border, or that inflation was low at 1.72% when Joe was sworn in…or the complete failure of Afghanistan when he claimed the Taliban would not take of the country in July before his withdrawal…or gas price was 2.15 a gallon the day Joe was sworn in and immediately signed orders to stop drilling/leases on federal lands and axed the keystone pipe and a couple moths laters let Russia hack a major pipeline. He acts like the US wasn’t an energy exporter for the first time in 50 years under the previous administration.

But folks know, they not buying the bullshit excuses anymore from him or the administration.

You know I’m speaking about the coverage from the Washington Post and their obvious hypocrisy here, right? In fact, I can call out the entire coverage of the media being hypocritical…you get mad a Trump statements, but is he lying to you?

Who’s lying here? Trump saying the rush to judgment is premature for the Saudis or Joe saying he wouldn’t visit, would make the Saudis a pariah and re-evaluate the relationship? You get mad when Trump took positions you don’t like but told you…on the other hand you rather be lied too and then silent when your president does the samething and approved a weapons package for them.

“Luxury of low gas prices”…wrong Mooby. Biden vs Trump energy policy…Trump’s energy independence with low prices or Biden regulatory, green energy policy with sky high energy costs.
