Hell, I was in the Marines.  You near Vegas?

That’s some pretty shoddy looking masonry. I sort of hope we give Trump something to gloat about so he can throw a big messy public tantrum when he watches us tear it down. 

Then the Senators who want a clean bill need to stay off the floor and shut down the Senate. Mitch needs 51 Senators for a quorum, and if 60 Senators want to force a vote on a clean bill they can. 

It’s a common bad-faith tactic that all conservatives usewhere they project their own failings onto others. “Liberals are the REAL fascists, for not letting us have fascism in this country!”

It’s GMG, so it could be a flood of trolls or they could all be the same asshole with a dozen burner accounts. Kinja is gonna kinja.

After Nixon refused to spend the funds Congress allocated, they made some changes to the process so that the President submits an annual budget request, Congress writes up a budget in response and votes on it. Each budget only covers a 12 month period, and the Continuing Resulotions they have been passing this year…

This troll only switches to his Kosh account to snicker at minorities and gloat.  

It wasn’t a problem at all until Reagan prevented seasonal workers from entering, working, and returning home after the harvest. Shutting the border is what made everyone who depended on working in the States need to stay in the States full time to begin with.

I had to look at the Wikipedia page for the budget process: apparently there is a law preventing department heads from incurring debts that aren’t funded by Congress, which makes sense. If Congress says, for example, “don’t send any money to right wing Honduran guerrilla groups,” it would be illegal for a government…

They are supposed to pass a budget each year, but since one party insists on giving a trillion dollar a year taxcut and the other party insists on paying for roads and schools and stuff, they can’t agree on a budget most years. They’ve only passed a budget one time a handful of times in the last 40 years. What usually…

UNLV and Arizona State, it seems. 

They need to pass a spending resolution with veto-proof majorities, and then explain to Donald that the votes for that are the same votes needed to fire his ass. 

Did she actually quit, or did she just call out while looking for another job during the shutdown?

<conservative>Are you calling Sarah Huckabee Sanders fat with that picture? Like a sumo wrestler?! Scandalous!</conservative>

Take away his Diet Coke button. 

Telling Jeffrey Lord that “if the President took a dump on his desk you’d defend it” and then panicking as he realized he said it out loud earns him a lot of respect from me. 

You really think they plan to endorse anyone who’s actually running? They’ve got the “voting is for sheeple” article already queued up, followed by HamNo’s “we lost the election so burn something down” take. 

“The trolls on staff aren’t driving people away from the site? Take away the headlines so it’s harder to reach content.” Splinter feels increasingly like it’s running the Producers scam.

As old as college students?  Probably not. 

They voted to take health insurance away from people 60+ times. I say we send a “follow the damn Constitution” bill to the Senate every week.
