Thought there was some talks about bringing earmarks back as they realized without them the legislature has no mechanism to get people to vote outside of party lines.

Obama had them banned back in 2011 and they've never been reinstated. People have tried but there's been pushback from Boehner, Ryan, and Pelosi against bringing them back.

I have a better idea, don't detain the kids and let them go on to wherever they were headed.

don't forget, they count as "unaccompanied" if they're not with a parent, uncles and aunts and adult cousins don't count

my favorite previously was when the libs trot out the Obama ICE ghouls saying "actually kids in cages is good" and then get owned because trump gave them gold metals for being racist, and the thing they hate more than anything is agreeing with trump.

so im looking forward to this same cycle where the Biden Obergruppenführer for Child Housing comes out and says "actually freezing children makes them stronger!" and libs copy and paste it all over the internet but then have to delete it in same because Trump gave them a metal for collecting doing racism with efficacy and cost-centric leadership.

(not that any of the evil poo poo bothers them, it is purely that trump licked them first)

It's kind of funny because if you do even the most cursory reading on American presidents and their administrations, you quickly find out that "values loyalty over everything else" has been something that every single one of them has practiced

do you remember when they leveled this criticism of dubya's cabinet as this new shocking thing that clearly demonstrated their incompetence

I'm drunk off my own intellect and my shameless ability to lie to myself extremely easily.

Someone else give me something. The sky is red? Democrats don't suck? Man of Steel is a good movie by a competent director? What else do I need to publicly embarrass myself by being transparently desperate to believe my own obvious lies and hypocritical viewpoints that counteract everything I've ever said but justify what I want to believe?

Sounds like the child death camps minor focused luxury overflow facilities are covered already.

Pete Buttigieg is like the ultimate example of how politicians are manufactured by the party, donors, lobbyists, etc and then presented to us as a product, rather than working their way up from city council or w/e on the merits of their ideas. I mean the vast majority of them are like that but it's so blatant in his case.

Punishing the ordinary people in Texas with crushing poverty for having the temerity of existing in the wrong state is just the natural next move after we used sweeping sanctions to crush the life out of the ordinary people of a bunch of foreign countries that looked at us funny
