Republicans beat back House attempt to override Trump's border wall veto

Anyone else watching the “New Green Deal” debate?

Chuck Schumer is a repulsive dirtbag (but you already know that).

I also don’t like seeing people on our side “admitting” that climate change exists and we-the-evil-people are causing it all. What a crock.

[shanover]

I am but one person but I am done with the GOP even though three party system only benefits the Democrats.

[LouAvul]

Yes, POTUS knows she's a criminal. Everybody knows that. I was being facetious.

Everybody knows she's a criminal but liberals, demoRATs and RINOs ignore laws with which they consider binding only for commoners.

[fortes fortuna juvat]

The RNC called me as I usually donate to them. This time I said NO. They could not guarantee me that even 1 penny could reach traitorous Toomey’s pockets. I told them they need to get the RINOs in line before they see another nickel from me.

Instead Judicial watch got an extra $ 75.00 to help their cause.
........................................
That is exactly what I have done, and hopefully all who fully support President Trump’s MAGA agenda will do the same. Republican organizations don’t call me anymore because when they have in the past I’ve burned their damn ears off.

I live in a solid GOP Colorado district. My rep knows my views.
.......................................
Hasn’t Colorado now been “blued” by rats escaping the cesspool they created in Mexifornia?

I also don’t like seeing people on our side “admitting” that climate change exists and we-the-evil-people are causing it all. What a crock.
..............................
Heh! Climate change has always existed. It’s controlled by God. Evil people refuse to acknowledge that because it undermines their assault on Capitalism.

[fortes fortuna juvat]

I am but one person but I am done with the GOP even though three party system only benefits the Democrats.
.......................................
The thing to do in my view is support any and all efforts to primary out of office the detestable RINOs, and provide financial support to incumbents and candidates who have demonstrated their full support of President Trump’s MAGA agenda. Otherwise you’re simply sitting on the sidelines, which of course is beneficial to the rats.

Yea R Herrera Beutler, Jaime WA 3rd
Yea R McMorris Rodgers, Cathy WA 5th

These two idiots are from my state. But it would be better when women were the leaders . . . .

Save us from testosterone.

Doesn’t matter. Article mentioned multiple lawsuits will stall it.

I thought some experts here said the courts couldn’t stop this.

I give the #### up.

Shakespeare was right.

Kill the lawyers first. Would solve a lot of problems.

[bkopto]

Thanks for your post.

My Critter voted no. I fired off an irate email.

No more votes for her, ever.

I don’t vote for backstabbers like McCain anymore.

That slot on the ballot will be blank or I’ll vote 3rd party.

[Karl Spooner]

I wish Trump wouldn't be so vague. lol. About 12 seconds in after a short commercial.

================================================

[morphing libertarian]

thank you. made my point

[Roccus]

I’m pretty sure a “NAY” vote was a vote to block the veto override.
IOW, it was a “good” vote.

[bkopto]

Sorry, I mis-wrote. She was a Yes vote. Thanks again.

[Dave W]

I love Judicial Watch - they are invaluable.

[Dave W]

OK - I bite - what are they?

[Impy]

The Baker’s Dozen of traitors from the initial vote

Justin Amash (MI)
Tom Massie (KY)
Francis Rooney (FL)
Fred Upton (MI)
Elsie S (NY)
Greg Walden (OR)
Brian Fitzpatrick (PA)
Freshman Dusty Johnson of SOUTH DAKOTA
Will Turd, I mean “Hurd” (TX)
Jamie Herrera-B (WA)
Cathy McMorris-R (WA)
Mike Gallager (WA)
and James “time to retire” Sennsebrenner (WI)

Were joined by John Katko (NY), who was absent during the first vote.

Given how many Senators voted for it this is actually a good job by the House GOP leaders, leaving the rats far short of 2/3s.
