Stimulants help cognitive focus but they do tend to speed everything up. Odds are tomorrow old ]oe will be incommunicado while he comes down.

I thoroughly enjoyed the public pushback

Refreshing

despite McCarthy repeatedly and publicly ruling that out as he and other conservatives push for cuts to discretionary spending and a clawback of unspent pandemic stimulus funds as part of a debt ceiling impasse.

Don't "conservatives" realize that messing with money labelled "pandemic stimulus" is heresy?

Prior to the 2022 election Senator Rick Scott (R-FLA) said that the Senate would be looking at sunsetting Medicare and Social Security in the near future.

So when do the impeachment hearings start?

[sport]

The second Sunday of next week.

FJB is always tangling and dangling with somebody. Mostly little kids though.

Got on here this morning hoping to see some news where the pedoPIG keeled over DOA in the middle of his demonic rants..... Oh well,...

“I’m glad to see — no, I tell you, I enjoy conversion,”

Well that's rather obvious given the demoncrapic push for kiddie genital mutilation and chemical castration.

[Alas Babylon!]

I’m happy to say I missed this speech and I’m not surprised Biden was a partisan fool, not a statesman.

The powers running his presidency seem content that they control the election system so why should they worry about his appeal to voters?

[AbolishCSEU]

I just watched the live thread
couldn’t bear to watch the actual gaslighting of the disunion speech

[lasereye]

I was pleasantly surprised that they chose Sarah Huckabee Sanders to deliver the response. I was expecting a typical Republican clown like Boehner who would utter bland platitudes and emphasize that the Republicans support assistance for Ukraine.

[dfwgator]

I knew Sarah was going to be good.

Liberals own the election system world wide and will continue to control electronic voting. Conservatives better get used to losing elections especially important ones

Bingo. Eliminate mail in voting except for validated traditional means....

Otherwise the goose is cooked ...

Communications are privileged, not evidence, and any such check or deposit receipt is evidence no matter who hands it to him. But it’ll go into a shredder if subpoenaed.

Correcting my initial post, Senator Scott did not specifically say Medicare and Social Security in part 6 of his 11 point plan. He stated that all Federal programs should sunset and if congress wants them then they can vote for them again.

While I admire Scott for his plan that has some good ideas he was warned that the rats would use it against the Republican party by McConnell and others.

[LibsRJerks]

I can’t watch it, or my severe anger and depression regarding the miserable state of this country would be triggered.

All I can say is I hope this miserable bloviating pig face gets his due one day. Such a chump ...has lived off the taxpayers for how long? 30 years? 40 years? He and others like him are not just bad politicians — they the worse of humanity.

[upchuck]

I doubt very seriously FJB had much input, if any, into this speech. It, as is typical, was a conglomeration of thoughts from nobama, Susan Rice, Ron Klain (I know he’s gone, but), ValJar and others.

This is why I didn’t bother to watch it.

that and AGW funding
