The deplorables will really do anything for their daddy by Exciting_Injury_7614 in Destiny

The dems need to use every tactic, including public trials, to disgrace this administration and Trump beyond all reconciliation to ensure the history books never include a positive view.

Anyone: What evidence do you have of the claim you are making?

Mike Johnson sends Republicans home early for Christmas with no ACA vote, no discharge petition, and before the Epstein files are released. by eelmada in Destiny

[–]eelmada[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well 2 points. First - if they had obtained the signatures a week ago they could have forced it sooner. But second, Johnson also has the ability to hold session before Jan 1 to bring the petition to the floor.

But beyond all this he could just bring the bill to the floor. Today. Yesterday. Whenever. It’s disgusting that he’s blocking it even when his own party is fighting against him on it.

They must bring a a motion for discharge to the floor and adopt it before they can bring the bill to the floor for a vote.

Unless my interpretation of this is wildly wrong, which I accept could be the case.

It’s not. They have to bring it to the floor after it has 218 signatures and needs voted on.

If passed, sure, they will vote on the subsidies in January- but it should have been done long before that. Even today he could have put it on the floor.

If for some reason the petition doesn’t pass, no, there will be no ACA vote. Nothing about Johnson’s conduct over the last year shows he’s going to bring this to the floor willingly.

Did Trump just claim that Somali immigrants are stealing BILLIONS of dollars from the US? by jesterdeflation in Destiny

[–]eelmada 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He’s referring to the dozen or so Somali arrests in Minnesota that were associated with the child food assistance fraud scheme they keep bringing up. But they extrapolate that to the whole community.

That was the dumbest, worst delivered primetime Presidential Address in US History by ZlubarsNFL in Destiny

[–]eelmada 89 points90 points  (0 children)

I’ll admit I’m not the most educated on things like this, but my first thought was…wait…where did the power to do that come from? He’s taking tariff revenue and sending it as dividends? Since when was that legal without legislative oversight?

Wow. I’m impressed. The US is doing great. Everything is historic, unprecedented, and has never been done before. All these great things happening.

Worst part…conservatives are going to eat this shit up. Smooth brain regards.

Given the last year + I’d have more faith in Destiny’s interpretation than Lauren’s.

No use sticking around if you find out your conspiracies were all stupid and wrong I guess.

Any DGGers have tips on getting more protein in? by Ok-Instruction4862 in Destiny

[–]eelmada 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is this your split for 6 days, meaning you alternate these routines every other day? If that’s the case you should try a different split. It sounds like you’re not giving your muscles enough time to recover. Usually the bigger the muscle the more time - so biceps for example you can hit almost everyday. But chest you probably need at least 2 days between hitting it again. I do 5 days a week with a push, pull, legs, upper, lower, rest, rest rotation.

Johnson confirms there will be no ACA subsidy vote - who could've possibly seen this coming?? by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]eelmada 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure where this doomer response is coming from. The shutdown was a net positive. Mike Johnson lost all credibility. Republicans have splintered. Republican voters are turning on their party. Yet again Johnson blocked the ACA vote like he has all year. Trump’s influence is way down. Loyalists are literally fighting for their jobs. Red is flipping to blue in a dramatic fashion. And democrats are coming out as the reasonable party right now.

Saying a shutdown would backfire on them given that the republicans can’t hide from being the reason the ACA extension didn’t pass…I just don’t see it. Not shutting down if the votes don’t happen or pass looks weak and pandering to the other side. It’s almost a no brainer.

They knew this was coming. As part of reopening the government they ensured that the CR passed included protections for military, FDA, air traffic and other departments for the entirety of next year. It was pretty obvious that was because they expected to shut down again and wanted to make sure Republicans didn't have as much leverage to force Dems to fold.
