Me too! It was a great fit in many ways.

But an entirely rational/reasonable decision on her part, and I 💯 support it.

My very bright kid was looking at applying to Cornell. These recent actions took it right off the list.

lol. I first read that as “overly bullsh*t sentiment.”

My brain might be onto something.

I noticed that. I found it interesting as he’s been out there saying if we lose we go to jail.

Apparently the senators saw Trump being flipped off and booed by the huge crowd the Commanders game today and thought: “Hey! How can I get in on some of that?!”

And no language on pocket recissions or other failures to spend approp $$$. Without this why make any deal?

This is also the time to highlight and hammer the lack of language on spending appropriated $$$.

Without it why make any deal?

Victory looks like some sort of language addressing admin pattern/habit of not spending $$$ appropriated. Any deal on minibus approps seem useless without it.

The RIF language is good. Need similarly strong language on appropriations.

Mine is a template too, pretty much.

Federal Judge: This is the law. You can’t do what your are doing, you must follow the law.

JD: This is absurd …

Pretty sure what the judge said was essentially:

“um … follow the law. “

…which is only absurd if the admin doesn’t believe laws apply to them.

Fun fact: Neil Diamond wrote The Monkees’ hit ‘I’m a Believer’ and a couple of other Monkees’ songs.
