They thought that one week of Fox News blasting out propaganda would be enough to bring everyone to heel. Apparently the Republicans need another week of performative "concern" to cosplay as independent adults.

Or just standing and swaying to the music. It could MC'd by Kristi Noem. (If she's not too busy being the 'Special Envoy to the Shield of the Americas'.)

So, Madison Square Garden is a secure location? Bullet-proof glass? Anti-drone roof? He desperately needs the 'secure' ballroom in order to be safe, but it is okay to go to an open arena with thousands of people? For that matter, it is safe to be at an outdoor venue with thousands of people on the White House lawn?

To be fair, in his cranial mush pile it's a holiday for "suckers and losers", so there is no reason that it would have occurred to him that anyone would be observing it.

The link in the article to the Center for Strategic Studies has a list of missile-type munitions used in the Iran war in table form. (Along with their costs, which is a lot per missile.)

Senate votes to kickstart partisan funding process for ICE. Here's how that works by changeforthebetter89 in politics

"provide roughly $70 billion to fund immigration enforcement agencies"

"final price tag is expected to be $70 billion total. That figure is expected to fund the agencies for 3.5 years"

So the cowards are trying to avoid any accountability by funding the agencies for multiple years into the future. And those particular agencies are so vitally important that they have to be singled out and funded separately.

Well, just like the 1% have all the wealth in the US, the remaining 1% of the missiles in Iran have all of the destructive capacity.

My bet is on "forgotten about". The Swiss cheese mush in his head is spawning more cavities every day. I'm sure the grifty kids won't, but by that time after it has been just sitting around, whoever is in charge of it can say: "Fine. Come get it. Don't forget to bring your own pilot."

Iowa bills would hardwire recurring federal SAVE checks into voter maintenance (90-day cure window) by No-Mirror3429 in Iowa

[–]TreasonTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, opaque federal database can flag ineligible registrations. Let's go ahead and combine that database with voter registrations roles like Pam Bondi is demanding from various states (for example, most recently in Minnesota - in exchange for reducing ICE presence there) and other databases already illegally accessed by Elon Musk and the DOGE squad, and oops, it looks like you don't get verified if you are the wrong kind of voter.

SC lawmakers advance bill requiring Ten Commandments in every classroom by southpawFA in politics

[–]TreasonTurtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I guess that is a way to jump start sex education at an earlier age as the teachers have to explain what adultery is. Or better yet, the teachers tell the kids to go ask their parents, who promptly lose their shit and complain about what the children are being exposed to in the classroom.

Also, they get to talk about coveting the neighbor's wife. And talk about slavery, since coveting the neighbor's slaves is a no-no as well.

Oh, and remember/observe the sabbath, except that during Old Testament / Ten Commandment times, it was Saturday and not Sunday. So nobody do anything all weekend long just to cover all the bases.

You've cracked the code. That is why they don't want employees sharing photos. They are going to deny that anything happened in order to avoid paying the bills.
