Just sell it as Trump and the Republican saviors saving the taxpayers hundreds of millions by duping those DemocRat contract suckers out of their pay and thus gaining America free work!

A man confronted reporters at the rally with shouts and a three-fingered hand gesture that resembled hate symbols flagged by the Anti-Defamation League.

If any of you want to know what an absolute ghoul Elliot Abrams is and why he should be immediately tried for war crimes, here's a good recap of his "greatest hits." https://theintercept.com/2019/01/30/elliott-abrams-venezuela-coup quote:The numbers alone don’t tell the whole story. El Salvador is a small country, about the size of New Jersey. The equivalent number of deaths in the U.S. would be almost 5 million. Moreover, the Salvadoran regime continually engaged in acts of barbarism so heinous that there is no contemporary equivalent, except perhaps ISIS. In one instance, a Catholic priest reported that a peasant woman briefly left her three small children in the care of her mother and sister.

Fwiw, since I was confused about this previously: In looking up noises Roy Blunt's been making about the border wall, I found this piece quoting Blunt explaining the actual Senate GOP intended way out on the border wall funding:quote:Blunt said that Republicans are “universally more supportive of” the “transfer authority” he is talking about “than some of us would be of emergency authority.” This would pertain to the statutory provision that doesn't involve an emergency declaration, 10 USC 284. Using DOD funds under that seems more likely to survive a court challenge, but it would be specific to fences for "drug smuggling corridors". I guess it makes sense, this is probably the best GOP option to get Trump to shut up and make the issue go away. High risk though, since it involves getting him to accept what is pretty much a pure face saving measure while he has other options to throw a temper tantrum.

Yeah, they’d be against it but really wouldn’t want that on their voting record, especially anyone in 2020. Unless they can think they can get away with it or something.

Wolfechu posted:I mean, this is one short step away from "I'll give you an extra $20 if you get rid of the homeless guy next to you so I'm first in place" Good news! Holdr's competitive pricing and structure allows for fluid and flexible placement depending on time of purchase as well as that particular purchaser's tier of service, or Holdr Fast Purchase; having an FP account means that, due to your importance and willingness to pay an extremely high monthly fee, you're automatically given a guaranteed spot near the front of the line!* (Purchase of spot still required; pricing based on market forces and is subject to change upward at any time)

eviltastic posted:He's going to care because it's an issue where ~the optics~ point exactly one way (good policy too, but we're talking Republicans here), the negotiating is not done yet, and making more noise about it directly undermines the GOP position of trying to be horrible by drawing attention to it and giving them ownership of it. I'm sorry, what the gently caress!? Are Swiss bank accounts like Bitcoin where you can't reverse a transaction or what?
