We’re going to build a wall, and Naboo is going to pay for it.

Huh... just realized that Palpatine at least created jobs. What with building multiple At-at’s, At-st and space craft and bases. Not to mention two Death Stars...

Should the DAPL become fully operational...

“Should the DAPL become fully operational, North Dakota could earn as much as $110 million in tax revenue”

That’s exactly what I’m referring to. It’s pretty exciting what’s building over there.

It also looks like Trump is weighing heavier involvement in the Yemen war.

On Saturday it was reported (on AM Joy) that Rep. Devin Nunes has his own deep connections to Putin and a Russian oligarch who is the distributor for his vineyard. (This should obviously disqualify him from chairing the Trump-Russia investigation).

Love the fact that Republicans have rolled over on the nepotism laws.

Wait, you mean they guy who doesn’t understand how insurance (of any kind) works might not be the best guy to lead the fight on healthcare?

Right? To me that was the biggest thing. They literally should have had a bill ready to go and know which 5-10 guys might be on the ideological edge and figured it out, not reforming a bill at the last minute. Being a GOP think tank must be the easiest job in the world.

I think the consensus is Republicans literally have no bill writers anymore. They spent the last 10 years shouting ‘NO!’ and flat out forgot how legislation works.

Precisely! Paul Ryan is a “wonk” in the sense that most undergraduate students are “wonks.” (I include the 18-22 year old version of myself in this group). They have ideologies on how the world should work but never get into actually playing out how those ideologies may be functionally enacted and the consequences of…

My two cents on that is that their was absolutely no bill they could have drafted that would have passed.

Not to take anything away from the spectacular suckfest that Trump and Ryan put on, but what the fuck have Republican think tank thinker ls been doing for the past decade? The ACA took months to pound together after starting with a bill that had been written over years by industry/think tanks/pols. The ACHA was…

This is one of the most uplifting things I have read in the past year. I can’t tell if that’s because my bar for “uplifting” has become unspeakably low; if it’s because I genuinely love your writing style (which I know I do, I’ve been guffawing at Burneko pieces for awhile now, shitty Return of the Jedi opinions…

“abortion offends God, plain and simple”

As a Canadian watching from afar, I still don’t understand why people are bringing religion into this. The US is where people say “separation of church and state”, right? That’s a thing you supposedly have? Am I taking crazy pills?

Anyone bringing theological debate to a secular legislature should be disqualified. Render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s, you asshole.
