When the President is the WWE Hall of Fame, and Secretary of Education owns the organization…

Why is he so against feeding the poor?

It beats the old Hong Kong airport. Harbor at one end of the only runway, steep hill at the other end, so half the time pilots had to do a sharp turn right before landing or right after takeoff.

The Speaker is doing that all on his own. The House has been kept out of session since the end of September. He says it’s because he’s unwilling to negotiate on health insurance funding, but many suspect it’s because he doesn’t want to be forced into an Epstein vote. Either way, he’s pretty much abandoned his duties.

I don’t like anyone in the line of succession, but they at least largely lack the charisma, or whatever it is, that Trump has to attract his base.

He had have his name in it after he found out people actually like ObamaCare.

Russia’s joint military drills with Belarus has caused Poland to shut down Poland / Belarus border crossings. A lot of Chinese goods are shipped to Europe via rail that goes through one of these crossings, so China is taking notice.

The fact that she’s a woman doesn’t earn her any points in his book, either. A woman of color who has opinions? Burn the witch!

Yanking someone’s security detail because they ran against you is petty. Yanking it with, what is it, five days notice, that’s just being a dick.

This is because protestors booed JD Vance and Pete Hegseth at Union Station last week when they went there for a photo op with National Gaurdsmen eating lunch at the Shake Shack.

I’m not sure the Supreme Court will take it. Ruling in favor of the DOJ would allow them to be sued, too.

He still doesn’t understand who pays tariffs, does he?

No. States are allocated a number of seats in the House of Representatives based on population. It’s up to each state to decide how to subdivide its territory into roughly equal population districts to elect each of their allocated House seats. Texas decided to redraw their map to make them advantageous to the Republican Party, so California has retaliated by redrawing their maps to be more advantageous to Democrats.

The US Senate is much more straightforward: Each state gets two senators, but they’re on non-overlapping six year terms. Only one is up for election at a time, so it’s statewide election for the seat.

My one hope is that this eye-for-an-eye redistricting will eventually lead to a constitutional amendment to have all congressional districts drawn via some nonpartisan algorithm rather than by state politicians. Probably over optimistic of me, though.

Like Putin is an expert in free and fair elections.

If there’s concern about criminals in DC, let’s start with the sexual predator living at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

At least, that’s acceptable cover from any MAGA backlash if they have to blacklist ICE for “violating the terms of use.”

Honestly, how is the average person supposed to tell the difference between a federal raid and gang activity?

How did they vote on this if they don’t have a quorum?

So by the end of Infrastructure Week next week?
