Congressional News and Discussion

people on the internet who claimed that by informing people of the laws, Omar was somehow breaking the law.

This is the argument against the Red Cards as well. Letting people know their rights makes it harder for the ICE and LEOs to violate them. Therefore, CRIME! Knowing your rights is wrong, dontchaknow? Obey without question your superiors at all times. Education is of the devil and won’t matter in Gitmo anyway.

Wow.

Yeah, I remember when Biden refused to fund things and when the lifelong government employee and former congressman directly took actions to subvert what Congress paid for.

Except he didn’t. I mean the guy kept going after trying to forgive student loans despite being blocked by every possible thing the GOP could throw.

Guy has/had flaws, not least of which was trying to run for a second term, but he did a much better job than anything expected and pulled American and a non-insignifigant part of the world out of a nose dive.

Imagine, for a horrible moment, what Ukraine would look like right now if Trump was in charge during the invasion. Think of all the stuff you know that Biden and the US did, and guess at some of the stuff we don’t know. There’s no way they’d even exist right now.

Split here too. Surprised a bit at Durbin since he’s been vocal but not surprised Duckworth said no.

I know Durbin is considered far too establishment by Illinois progressives but he’s got his seat on lock. Shame since I saw him before the November election in person and he looked every day of his 80 years. TV is doing him a LOT of favors.

Unbelievable how hard he’s turned. Either the stroke altered his personality or he had a lot of people snowed really well. I was ready to carry him into the White House.

Even the amateur grifters are getting in on it. I mean, even here, she sucks, but she’s trying. Little baby incompetent grifter is a grifter nonetheless.

One can only hope that she bought at a high point and may actually lose money on this stock, despite Musk’s attempts to keep the grift going.

Exactly my point. She has no idea how to do it, just that “This seems like it should be wrong, so that’s what I will do!” Stupid, but, I mean…
