With his usual restraint and decorum.

Which is to say he ordered their executions over social media, expressing a preference for death by hanging.

But he’s totally not wanting to be a dictator, no.

No. Leaving the legal pursuit of Donald Trump in the hands of politicians and cowards instead of actual law enforcers was a mistake.

I know, right. We’ve gotten so used taking L’s that an arguable Win feels weird.

Apparently, Trump and Johnson forgot two things -
1.) Thune may be Republican but he doesn’t like either of them.
2.) The Senate has a special rule where if the Senate majority leader knows that there will be no discussion and a unanimous vote they on something they don’t have to call a session.

I only disagree in that I think there are some MAGAts that it is genuinely fooling. It’s not fooling anyone with two brain cells to rub together.

You know what they say. If you took a cognitive test and thought it was an IQ test, you failed both.

Either he and his allies think they’ve done enough scrubbing, or he knows the files are getting out no matter what he says and if he acts like he’s for it he can pretend he’s in charge for a little longer. Probably mostly the later.

They might think so. Seems more likely to me that he’s just accepted that the files are gonna be released no later than Tuesday no matter what he says or does, so he might as well try to steal credit for it so it looks like he’s still in charge for a bit longer.

No.

I will concede that we’re in a moment and circumstance where there are better targets for our rage, but she’s a temporary ally at best.

Bro, don’t insult animals like that.

Only when Republicans do it.

You’re telling me intentionally creating an electorate too dumb to not vote Republican may have had other consequences?

I mean, they almost got an extension on ACA subsidies but thanks to those eight the Democrats managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Schumer has got to go, there’s no way he didn’t at least consciously decide he didn’t care if that happened or not and he probably helped coordinate it.

Short answer - they could have, but they managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory at the last second.

Oh Boy - I’ve been busy. I help about my local team by running the kitchens a bit so I’ve been hopping up and down.

Magical Athlete is a strange game, I dig it so. And there’s a Slay the Spire board game now?

…What are the other half saying? Are they all blaming the Democrats somehow or are we including people who say they have no idea why it’s shut down?

The one on left drives a Ford or a Dodge, the one on the right drives an old Toyota.

…That’s about it.

I got a bet with a buddy going of how long the shutdown will last. I said it’ll easily sail past the record of 35 days, put my money down on 50.

They’re not gonna pass a budget without the house, and they can’t have an official session of the house without releasing the Epstein files.

Going on Bill Maher makes you part of the radical left? What the actual fuck?
