11 republicans voted with the democratic house members to remove marjorie green from her committee seats.

Just two years ago, a majority of House Republicans voted to strip Steve King for defending white supremacy. Now only 11 vote against someone who advocates assassinating other House members and supported an attempted coup which would have resulted in the murder of other House members.

And 61 voted to remove archconservative Liz Cheney for not sucking the orange mushroom.

Wrong. Fish Filets are one of a handful of McD's items I enjoy.


So I started a poo poo storm on an IG page because I dared say that the military has a problem with White Supremacists. Not like there is an annual report on it.

Cue a bunch of White Supremacists trying to defend it.

My daughter is dating a first generation Mexican Immigrant. They've been together for awhile, but it was hysterical when one of his cousin's asked what her favorite Mexican food was.

"Taco Bell"

His family is still confused why a teenage White Girl would want a Cheesy Gordita Crunch over real, home cooked Mexican.

I imagine their calculus is that in 2018, they took a bath, but in 2020, they did very well in the election, so obviously the secret ingredient is more Trump.

I ignore lent now, but I'd rather eat taco bell over most places' lent related offerings anyhow.

Maybe Arby's still has that hot fish sandwich. It was that bullshit "Nashville hot" one last time I had one. I spent 10 years in/around Nashville and nothing there was hot besides midnight fried chicken at like, 2 places, until 5 years ago.

Yeah that's basically it. Republicans are betting that their path back includes redistricting, an off-year election in an all-D government, state-level voting restrictions, and Donnie-level turnout. They're also likely betting that Biden gets the pandemic under some semblance of control, and the economy along with it, which means they *absolutely have* to have Donnie's turnout.

The particularly funny case is McCarthy - he really, really wants to be Speaker of the House in 2022. That will likely come down to just a few seats if it happens, then he'll need the 5-10 wingnuts to vote for him, and they hate his guts. So you'll have Jordan, Gaetz, or some other donniefuck shiv McCarthy right in the back and he's too dumb to know it's going to happen yet.

I believe in effect, nothing, since the amendment by itself doesn't set a number, it just empowers the chair of the budget committee to set one.

No points for remembering who the chair of the budget committee is.

When Democrats start calling for assassination of the opposition, maybe. AOC proposing legislation is not equivalent but gently caress if Republicans care they'll draw that equivalency anyway because gently caress you.

Cheesy gordita crunch is still there.

And yeah they already are. They tried to get Ilhan Omar booted for something she said about Israel what feels like a lifetime ago. Also chuds are already running rampant saying AOC lied about hiding in her office for fear for her life.

I have managed to get myself banned from two SOF message boards by talking about bad about Trump.

One is a board that is peopled predominantly by former SOF personnel, the other is one that is composed of both former and current. The one that has the currents has gone private, so you have to join to read.

I don't mean to suggest the entirety of SOF is composed of Qunts, but I do think there is a very serious problem here.

To wit: a group of people who are highly trained, who have been trained to see themselves as the best, and the heroes in the story, when put into ridiculous situations and wars where they cannot win, are going to find ways to make themselves into the heroes of their stories. Is that too much?

Some researchers found glass beads from Venice originating in the 1400s in an ancient Native American site in Alaska.

Seems likely that the beads got traded from Venice to Russia and then across the Bering into AK, before Columbus ever came across.

Yeah kind of but part of finding their spine again means Democrats are taking tentative steps towards doing what's right despite pundits clutching the pearls about "but then the Republicans can do it!"

As if the GOP gives a poo poo about precedent and norms and traditions.
