lol even if he did, which he won’t, the House won’t
Whoa -- Sen. Durbin went to up Leader Thune during the vote last night to tell him that on the shutdown vote and ACA promise that "8 of us are sticking our neck out that you're going to keep your word. I hope you will. He said 'I assure you I will,'" Durbin says just now

In the last month, the FBI has charged players from two different leagues for roles in sports-betting scandals.

Either legalized gambling is exposing corruption that’s always been there.

Or it’s creating it.

Either answer is terrible for sports.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.

The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

80% of Democratic voters want a new leader in the Senate.

In case you still don’t understand why SCOTUS are constantly ruling in favour of the wannabe American Hitler, this is why.

But if they bothered to studied history they’d know it never actually works out long term in their favour.
