Really weird to be living in both extremely unprecedented and extremely precedented times, simultaneously.

You know when things are stressful at work, and you go to log into your work computer, and your login doesn't, and for a split second you think you're fired? That's how I feel about civilization right now. I currently have no water and my first thought was, "trump."

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

A reminder to the idiot Orange Felon - bc he lost CA, he feels can put conditions on relief. He fails to understand that he's also punishing the more than 6 MILLION Californians that voted for him.
BTW, 2.8 million North Carolinians voted for him, w/a Dem Gov.
Make it make sense.
