When will the shooting start?

Well, actually, the other side has already started shooting. But when will good people of good will begin to defend themselves against the Progressive tyrants and the voting Americans who put them in office?

I have turned out to be full of shit (sometimes I wonder why my eyes aren’t brown). A SOTU is mandated on occasion with no particular date set for it.

"I would really love to know how you think this ends well for PDT?"

Maybe if you got your head full of mush out of your trolling ass, you'd see things more clearly.

Pelosi will demand RBG be jacked up on ephedrine.

“My vote would be to hold it in Swollen Groin. TX.”

I think I drove through there once. It reminded me of Bleeding Piles, CO.

“Not up to Congress as to whether or not it is given, nor is it mandated that it be given in Congress.”

Nancy’s acting quite uppity, isn’t she, when she has absolutely no power in this regard?

That’s what I was wondering. Can’t remember this ever happening before.

I’m wondering if this is simply about Nancy, Chuck, and RBG’s image anxieties.

Either that or Jake Tapper is just providing more of his made up fake news.

Pelosi doesn’t want our president
to address the nation on the dire
situation at our southern border,
without a chance at a rebuttal.
which is the reason for the requested
written report as they can tone down the
narrative, and control what information
comes out. She’s afraid that Trump will
gain additional support in favor of
the wall funding.
Just my humble opinion.

This will be a PR disaster for the Dems.

Did the AP, NYT, Los Angeles Times, WaPo, NBC radio new network, ABC radio news network, CBS radio news network, ABC, CBS, NBC, Reuters, Huffington Post, Yahoo News, Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert suddenly go off the air and off the internet and off the wires?

Look folks, we've done nothing to cripple and remove the sources and networks and outlets from where the vast middle portion of American passively receives their news and world view. A start would be to take down the AP, which sources its dishonest into thousands of local and internet outlets.

“SOTU from the Oval Office.”

Too low key in my opinion. I love President Trump, but when he speaks to a camera without a live audience, he comes off as a bit uninspired. He needs a live audience to be at his best.

Also, the pomp and circumstance of the SOTU is a special honor and a show of respect for the President of the United States - which the Democrats are attempting to deprive President Trump of. He should not let them get away with it.

There is no reason the SOTU requires an invitation from the House majority. That is a tradition, not a law. The Senate could host it, or even the House Minority for that matter.

As for the venue, the Democrats do not have authority over what happens in the Capitol Building. General Services Administration is an Executive Branch agency.

If he can’t arrange for the Senate to host the event, I hope he does something even grander - even more stately. A 20,000 person rally would be fun, but I would rather see him find a way to thwart their attempt at disrespecting him - namely, by going ahead with the SOTU despite the Demcrats’ petty rudeness.

““My vote would be to hold it in Swollen Groin. TX.”

I have to tell you that it’s a “stolen line” from Sheriff Buford T. Justice ( Jackie Gleason) in “Smokey and the Bandit!”

Hoyer did say Trump was disinvited, he was quoted on it and then he backtracked on his statement after Pelosi and others said don’t say that
