The most likely answer is that they are looking for people who are not merely friendly to conservative causes, but who will also swear loyalty to Trump. There might be a lot of biased judges in the country, but I bet almost all of them who have experience have at least enough self respect and pride in their chosen…

Ok, so at first this bill was simply taking from the poor and giving to the rich, but it also got rid of some deductions, loopholes, etc, and it is supposed to add about 1.5 trillion to the debt. NOW, it seems we’ve added back in most of the loopholes and created billions more in loopholes. Sooooo I’m guessing…

What happens if the CDC flat out refuses to comply?

“Fetus” -> “extra small attached babyperson”

“We changed our minds. We deserve the sprinkles! Letting you keep the sprinkles will just make you dependant on others.”

I’m convinced that basically the entire Republican caucus is filled with sociopaths. How they can continually lie and lie and lie with a straight face that this bill is pro-middle class in the face of overwhelming mathematical evidence that it is not? This is the real damage of the GOP’s war on truth. That they can go…

More theater from the Real Housewives Of Congress.

55% to 70% is a fucking joke.

I’m so old, I can remember Little Marco fulminating about Rex Tillerson’s qualifications at Tillerson’s Senate confirmation hearing. And then voting for his approval.

Reading the transcripts of this interview fills me with rage as I remember the arguments I had with “independents” and “swing voters” about the importance of voting for Hilary solely to keep Trump from nominating federal and SCOTUS candidates.

All the best people.

HE’S NEVER EVEN TAKEN A DEPOSITION BY HIMSELF

“The ABA’s record on judicial nominations has been highly questionable,” said Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee. “It has demonstrated over past decades repeatedly partisan interests and ideological interests.”

This is pretty common in this area. My country (Costa Rica) has currently 8 Christian parties in power in our Asembly (that’s not even counting parties with “christian principles” like Unidad Social Cristiana, only the parties whose ENTIRE agenda is conservative and Christian). Our laws are similarly restrictive tho…

Yeah, I’m not sure this is a line of thought we would want to encourage among the current GOPers. This is a group of people who use the threat of Sharia law as a rallying cry while trying to enforce social and legal mores so consistent with Sharia law they’re almost indistinguishable.

And yet!!! Republicans strive to do it every single day.

“Teodora’s tragic story is a sad illustration of everything that is wrong with the justice system in El Salvador,...”

THIS is what we need to hammer home when pro-birthers talk about the unborn and sanctity of life. Being truly consistent in a “pro-life” manner means treating each and every miscarriage as a possible murder- after all, “someone” has died. The goalposts of this debate haven’t moved yet, the American pro-birth movement…

After minutes of Googling i have concluded that heavy religious influence on government is a bad idea.
