“...they STILL can never be fired...”

I guess when this thing passes, even those who were fired were not really fired. Pretty good gig.

Prefer they would make the government shutdown permanent.

Let’s how many of those filthy Washington DC Rat employees can find employment in the private sector.

The American people are not for more tax payer funded corporate welfare for already record profited insurance companies that “donate” largely to dims(I would guess)😎

So. Liz.

The Affordable Care Act, a bill that not one Republican voted
for, included a provision that the subsidies would sunset out
in December, 2025. That date is rapidly approaching. But since
you Democrats designed the end of subsidies into the bill, the
Republicans must now be responsible for taking the American
people hostage? You are like the Menendez brothers complaining
that they can’t be incarcerated for killing their parents
because now they are orphans.

Sheesh!

I’m in Southeast Tennessee. Away from Nashville & Memphis. Far enough away from Chattanooga and the crap that happens there, and in a pretty nice rural area. Just how I like it.

Welcome to TN

Thank you! I've been wanting to move here for over twenty years. Family used to vacation in the Smokey Mountains outside of Gatlinburg. I've loved the state for so long, and so glad I get to call it HOME now.

Didn't bring any of the former state nonsense with me. I will be adopting the culture HERE!

Welcome to TN. I just hope you didn't choose Nashville because you'll think you're still in IL.

Nope, didn't choose Nashville or anything around it. In Chicago, Nashville is called "Chicago South" because of all the Chicagoan's that infest it.

No. Thank. You.

I'm out in Loudon County.

I have my own reinforcements that I moved here three years go: My Two Son's.

One's in Crossville, the other in Johnson City. Both of 'em pretty handy with their pew-pew toys too. Dad taught 'em both well.

LOL A lot of us here have called Nashville “Chicago South” for several years as well. I won’t go there for any reason. If I need to go to a large city for something, which is rare, I go down to Huntsville, AL.

Nice area you chose. The mountains are beautiful. I’m not but a few miles from where the southern end crosses over into AL and can see them through the windows.

Hope you have a happy life here.

lol, like most states even blue ones. There is the heavily populated psycho leftist areas and then the rest.
Illinois, NY, Virginia, even kalifornia are beautiful outside these areas, and mostly red.

I think the fraud is slowly being dealt with, but republicans have this nasty habit of sitting home on off year elections and even non presidential elections so the left often wins with a small percentage of voting population.

In my city which voted red, three leftists won all three school board elections and all tax increases passed🤬

President Trump has the ability to get the vote out, without him on the ballot I am very concerned
