A beaver would be handy to have to pick up toys in a game room, but not in a house with piano legs.
Not mature.

Fortunately I didn’t view videos, just read about it. My stress level has its limits.

House Democrats Float âUnity Speakerâ Possibility amid GOP Speaker Debate
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) also floated the idea of a âunity governmentâ Wednesday. Speaking with the Daily Beast, she said a âunity speakerâ is not outside the realm of possibility but that if the idea came to fruition, McCarthy would not be the candidate Democrats would back.
She also stated Democrats would require Republicans to give concessions, such as potentially giving up committee seats to Democrats.
“But, I mean, hey, if we could get some chairs,â she said.
NO!
I’m hearing Russia is going to have a 31 hour ceasefire for the Orthodox Christmas Holiday. Zelensky had refused the Church’s request.
Exactly!
Ukraine already offered a Christmas ceasefire on the 25th. Russia refused.
Matt Gaetz vows to continue speaker stalemate until McCarthy concedes or limits power
I’m sure the winters are great, but I’ve had 55 years of hot summers, so I’ve had my quotas worth.
I didn’t even think of the furniture being whittled. I did wonder about potty training.
Ha! First one is perfect!
Ha! Thats the opposite of what I’m seeing reported on Newsmax.
I’m saying “ha” because don’t know what to believe.
The only thing I see is you said the 25th. Roman Catholic date, not Orthodox. I don’t trust either side.
I’m with you there!
A Significant Majority of Republican Voters Agree With the GOP Rebels

The Republican establishment that still believes they can manage votersâ expectations to maintain the status quo may want to do a reality check. The base had high expectations in 2022, and the elections did not meet those expectations. Many voters suspect that at least some establishment Republicans put a greater emphasis on ensuring that candidates tied to President Trump did not win than on winning back the Senate and a more significant majority in the House.
Then, the GOP members they did manage to elect voted to keep the wildly unpopular Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) as Senate Republican Leader. Then, with a RealClearPolitics average favorability rating of -33%, McConnell turned around and betrayed Republican voters by helping Democrats pass a $1.7 trillion Omnibus package along with 17 of his colleagues.
No one should be surprised that Republican voters are fed up. They organized the Tea Party and elected candidates who promised fiscal responsibility. When that did not work, they elected a reality television star as president. Yet the incumbents in Washington still donât learn. So while CNN wrings its hands about Republican chaos and Karl Rove lectures the Freedom Caucus on TV, voters want change and are getting ready to close their wallets.
âRepublican voters are furious about the failure of their party to deliver results in 2022 â especially given the disastrous mismanagement of the country by the Biden Administration and their allies in Congress. Voters believe the only way to hold the GOP accountable for its failures is to make way for new leadership,â says Mark Meckler, President of the Convention of States.
âGrassroots activists have known for a long time that GOP leadership in Congress and at the RNC arenât focused on fighting for conservative principles, or even winning a majority, but rather keeping themselves in power and funding the permanent political consultant class,â said Meckler.
The political realignment has been evident to anyone paying attention since Donald Trump rode down the escalator in 2015. Republicans will continue to ignore the Obama-Obama-Trump voter, the blue-collar voter, the parents, and the freedom voters at their peril. The recent Florida election results show that rejecting the status quo and delivering results for the people you represent is a winning strategy. Perhaps the GOP should try it.
Oh yum, thank you lysie,
Hope you are doing ok.
