I dunno they're probably making everything proper and whatnot. Though it seems like they should have had that drafted up months ago.

Apparently the House Ways and Means are working out a plan. They expect the administration to slow roll the hell out of it.

All we're going to get in the near future is some snark about how the might as well send over the returns as long as they are illegally calling up IRS employees in to process refunds.

A weird thing I didn't realize: there have been zero hearings in the House so far. Committee assignments have just been finalized, which is why subpoenas haven't been flying yet. Every day feels like a week and every week a month, but we're still in the time when Congress is institutionally sorting itself out and putting together the committees with that subpoena power.

That's probably part of the reason Pelosi wanted to do that trip now. It's early and not much is going on because new members are still figuring poo poo out.

If you could time travel you wouldn’t need to kill baby hitler. Just wait until WW1 and he’s in a field hospital and inject dirty trench water into his veins.

I haven't seen the video but considering the fact that calling him that is a pretty common racist catchphrase it really seems like the kind of mistake that could only happen if you were frequently saying it in conversation.

A heated gaming moment of sorts.

Seems to be a bit of a pattern lately. Weird how that keeps happening.

Or if I'm feeling even more cynical it's closeted KKK gently caress sticks that want 15 minutes of fame from saying it, saying "No I didn't say that stop looking for racism where it doesn't exist you real-racist" and then riding the persecution complex wignnut gravy train to dolla dolla bills and a spot in the right wing media circus grift machine.

They have to run through the boring bureaucratic steps right now. They're sending out letters like this one asking agencies to give them document dumps on the sketchy poo poo the administration's been doing for the past couple of years. It'll be a couple of weeks at least until the agencies start sending stuff in. The ones that are open anyway.

He’s right though. You don’t kill Baby Hitler, you kill both of his parents so there’s zero chance of them spawning another one.

It does not, they have a special appropriation. *some* of their staff are outside contractors from biglaw and there might be a delay in paying invoices though.

If it’s the same clip that Howard Stern played I think Robin said the same thing as you. But a caller did have a reasonable explanation, he skips the “ing” in King and the J in Junior. “Martin Luther Kunior” seems possible when your talking fast or your brain and mouth have some desync. Stopping to correct yourself right after saying it probably made it sound worse though.

But who knows maybe this dude just wanted to gain cred with his klan buddies...I haven’t read anything about colleagues coming to his defense. He made some reply on Facebook after he got fired about how he just spoke wrong I think.

Yeah if you just remove the martin and and shift the letters around in king and make the k silent it spells nig then snag the e and the r from luther and it's really easy to see how you'd make this mistake when you are nervous on the air right hahaha.

Oh look it's, exactly what I said the "controversy" would start off as.

Shocking. This is my shocked face. See how shocked I am?
