And when Jimmy couldn’t pull himself up by his bootstraps-because his father taught his mother a lesson very hard with his fists while she was pregnant and that left Jimmy paralyzed- we just hid him in the closet so he’d know how shameful it was that the family had him.

As a longtime ally, I fucking love your goddamn community, too.

I’ll be over here getting pregnant with ice cream if anybody needs me.

You wear one unflattering dress....

i wish they were simply not good people...at least Cheney resigned from Halliburton and gave the appearance of no conflict. these fools are straight up stealing from everyone they have ever worked with.

Oh, you should. You definitely should. And ask how they can say their man is a “man of the people”.

One of two nominees usually go down for something like this that pops up in the vetting, I really thought this would bring her down.

Don’t complain to us. Complain to your congressmen. I just called both senators for my state and gave them my thoughts on the subject. I have my states senators numbers saved in my phone and am calling often. Twice just today. Once for this, and once to tell them I am disappointed not to find their names on the list…

I don’t know. She had an education PAC that wracked up $5.3 million in fines that she has successfully refused to pay for years.

We have to fight tooth and nail to minimize the impact. Like really, its time put in work.
(& your name is 10/10)

No doubt. We’re not fucking rolling over though. Let’s get to work.

Why would this dipshit even want this job? Doesn’t she realize it’s going to entail actual work, instead of just writing checks and getting your nails done?

The Senate can technically refuse to confirm. However, these appointments can’t be filibustered, so at least three Republicans will have to join the Democrats to prevent an appointment. It is unlikely in most cases. Tillerson (at State) is looking iffy, and the allegations that came out against Price (HHS) and Puzdar…

Franken also grilled her really well. She couldn’t answer a basic question about growth vs. proficiency (she thought they were the same thing, they absolutely aren’t). She bought this post. Pretty deep fucking swamp.

All the budget is going to seat fillers.

We had that, though. RIP Kitchenette.

Maples was worried about her financial situation with Tiffany out of college, ending child-support payments from the president-elect. “She is used to a certain lifestyle and you don’t understand that.”
